Your benefit in training
-
Small gain in muscle mass: A meta-analysis of 49 studies (1,863 participants) found small average effects for protein in addition to resistance training: about 0.3 kg more fat-free mass and about 2.5 kg more strength in the one-repetition maximum.
-
Milk protein compared across studies: A network meta-analysis of 116 studies with 4,711 resistance trainees lists milk proteins such as whey among the protein types with demonstrable benefit for muscle mass and strength (moderate certainty of evidence).
-
21 g protein at 87 kcal: Per 25 g serving, with under 0.5 g carbohydrates, under 0.5 g sugars and 0.5 g fat.
-
Refreshing rather than creamy: Mixed with 300 ml of water, the shake tastes like a soft drink; 8 flavours, 16 servings per 400 g tub.
What the research says: The gains are small and only occur together with regular resistance training; beyond 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 head-to-head studies.
What is behind it
According to BioTechUSA, protein is the foundation of nutrition and has to be topped up daily because the body does not store it. The BCAAs in whey protein isolate play a fundamental role in protein synthesis. In the Green Apple and Cactus Fig flavours, chlorella algae powder is added, a freshwater alga which, according to the manufacturer, is rich in protein and nutrients and contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function.
