Every protein is NOT the same.
This is accomplished thanks to special, easier to metabolize whey protein. By supplying the body with a ready source of high-quality hydrolyzed protein, it can quickly repair damaged muscle tissue without having to wait for the natural processes to break down protein on their own. The whey protein is first filtered, separating the original protein from all of its non-essential components (such as fat and lactose). This results in a pure form of protein called whey protein isolate. For best effect, the whey protein isolate is then subjected to hydrolization, where the pure protein is exposed to enzymes that break down the bonds that hold the amino acids together, separating the protein into easy-to-absorb-and-utilize peptide sequences. These ‘pre-digested’ sequences bypass the normal channels of digestion and metabolization, and are carried through the bloodstream directly to the damaged muscle tissue. Studies have concluded that hydrolyzed whey protein, when taken either directly before or directly following a workout, can help boost the body’s natural repair process. That means less down-time, and a much faster cycle of exercise and repair.
