What is in Our Whey?
Our Pure Whey Formula is 92% pure whey protein (the highest percentage available on the market), and comes in three flavors: natural, chocolate and vanilla. All three flavors are 100% natural and do not contain any added artificial flavoring. The Natural formulations have the highest Whey Protein percentages. Vanilla or chocolate whey has slightly less protein and a very small amount of sugar (compare our product to others). All or our formulas mix well in water and in low fat milk products and are much easier and faster to absorb. They are also great in smoothies.
Where do we get Our Whey From?
Our whey based protein is formulated with undenatured whey protein derived from free range grass fed cows. The protein content in our whey is very high 92%. Lactose content of 30 grams/ serving is 0.5 grams or approximately 1.67% depending on formulation. This is low compared to most whey products that are 3.33% or more lactose.
Why do we avoid sugar in our products?
Sugar induces the release of insulin. High periods of insulin cause inflammation, fat stoage, fatty streaking in muscles and accelerate arterial diseases.
