ISOLATE WHEY PROTEIN REVIEWS AND SHORT DESCRIPTION :

A whey protein isolate is a dietary supplement created by filtering milk protein. Whey is a by-product of the cheese-making process. Whey can be processed to yield whey protein in three forms: whey isolate, whey concentrate, or whey hydrolysate.

Whey proteins are highly bioavailability, are very quickly absorbed into the body, and have a high concentration OF BCAA .which are highly concentrated in muscle tissue, and are used to fuel working muscles and stimulate protein synthesis.

The difference between the whey protein forms is the process used to filter the proteins. Whey isolates yield a higher percentage of pure protein and can be filtered enough to be virtually lactose free, carbohydrate free, fat free, and cholesterol free.

Whey isolates have had their base component (water) removed and are generally considered almost lactose and cholesterol free — they are at least 90% protein by weight.

Two filtration methods are widely used. One method, utilizes ion exchangers. which denature the proteins with heat, and may or may not damage the proteins. The second method microfiteration. uses other filtration methods. Both methods yield a very high protein to non-protein product ratio.

Whey and other protein powders can be reconstituted at the time of usage by the addition of a solvent such as water, juice, milk, or other liquid.
