It also contains L-glutamine, L-arginine and the BCAAs L-leucine, L-isoleucine and L-valine, as well as bromelain from pineapple. The 1 kg pack makes approx. 35 servings.
Why BioTechUSA 100% Pure Whey is worth it
-
Around 20 g protein per serving: 28 g of powder provide 19 to 21 g of protein depending on flavour, e.g. 106 kcal, 1.4 g fat, 2.7 g carbohydrates (of which 2.0 g sugars)
-
BCAAs in every serving: approx. 4.0 to 4.4 g of L-leucine, L-isoleucine and L-valine per 28 g, depending on flavour
-
With L-glutamine and L-arginine: in addition to the amino acid profile of whey protein, plus the protein-digesting enzyme bromelain from pineapple (1200 GDU/g)
-
Whey complex with CFM technology: whey protein concentrate and isolate, 84 to 92% of the recipe depending on flavour; cross-flow microfiltration reduces the lactose content of the raw material without enzymatic treatment and without chemical additives
-
No added sugar: sweetened with sucralose, except for the Black Biscuit flavour with sugar-containing biscuit pieces
-
Gluten-free: in accordance with EU regulations, also palm oil-free and without preservatives
-
Flavours and servings: 1 kg = approx. 35 servings; flavours: Banana, Strawberry, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Chocolate, Hazelnut, Black Biscuit, Rice Pudding, Cookies & Cream, Apple Pie
Your benefit in training
-
Small gain in muscle mass: In a meta-analysis of 49 studies (1,863 healthy adults), additional protein combined with resistance training brought on average a small gain in fat-free mass (around 0.3 kg) and in strength (around 2.5 kg in the one-repetition maximum). With around 20 g of protein per shake, you add a solid building block to your daily intake.
-
Milk protein in study comparison: In a network meta-analysis of 116 studies (4,711 adults doing resistance training), milk proteins such as whey were among the protein types that were effective for muscle mass and strength (moderate certainty of evidence).
-
20 g protein at approx. 106 kcal: Per 28 g serving, plus 4.0 to 4.4 g BCAAs depending on flavour as well as L-glutamine and L-arginine; 1 kg lasts for approx. 35 shakes.
-
For shaker and kitchen: 9 flavours from Banana to Apple Pie; stir 1 serving into 250 ml of water, into porridge or into baking recipes.
What the research says: The effects are small on average and apply together with regular resistance training; from a total intake of about 1.6 g of protein per kg of body weight per day, this analysis showed no further gain in fat-free mass. The network meta-analysis is based on indirect comparisons, and the authors call for direct comparison studies.
What is behind it
Whey is produced during cheese-making from the milk of grass-fed cows and is not wasted but processed further into a sweet, protein-rich raw material. For the raw material, BioTechUSA uses CFM technology (cross-flow microfiltration): more filtration means a higher protein content, and the lactose content falls without enzymatic treatment and without chemical additives.
What protein does
- Protein contributes to a growth in muscle mass.
- Protein contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass.
- Protein contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.
