WHAT ARE WHEY PROTEIN SUPPLEMENTS?
Whey protein, also known as whey protein, is extracted from milk protein through an isolation process. Once the whey protein is separated from the rest of the components, it is prepared and flavored for consumption. Thanks to its lactic origin, this type of supplement has very high levels of BCAAs (branched branched amino acids), making it one of the most complete supplements.
WHAT IS WHEY PROTEIN FOR?
Being extracted directly from milk, the fat values are slightly higher than those of the rest of the proteins, so whey protein is the perfect supplement for athletes who are in the bulking phase and need that little extra contribution of fat to supplement your diet. In athletes who perform intense exercise, the consumption of protein shakes is recommended to facilitate the muscle recovery process.
WHEN TO TAKE WHEY PROTEIN?
The ideal would be to drink the protein shake within a period of up to 30 minutes to be able to take advantage of the contribution of whey protein for muscle recovery. Thanks to the fact that there is a wide variety of flavors for whey protein, it can be used in baking to prepare biscuits, cookies or even cakes, so in this way we can consume whey protein at practically any time of the day.
