Whey protein

Whey protein supplements, also known as "Whey Protein", are powdered products with a high biological value useful for increasing the protein intake of the diet.

These are proteins that are subjected to ultra and microfiltration at low temperatures in order to extract the whey while keeping all its nutritional properties intact.
The most important peculiarities of whey are attributable to fast assimilation and rapid release of amino acids into the bloodstream; characteristics that make this protein particularly effective in times when there is a need to overcome sudden or prolonged catabolic states such as those induced by fasting or the phase immediately following training heavy and particularly intense.

Whey Protein contains three important macronutrients both in sports-performance and in health terms: Beta Lactoglobulins, Alpha-Lactalbumin, Serum albumins and immunoglobulins.

Of all sports performance supplements, whey protein is the most consumed. They differ in amino acid profile and in particular in the ratio / content of BCAAs with respect to other amino acid substrates, and type. On the market there are in fact various formulations such as the classic concentrates, the whey isolate and hydrolyzed proteins or WPH.

Whey Protein in the post workout

To facilitate and shorten muscle recovery, the most suitable period for their intake certainly concerns the post-workout phase. Although they can be consumed at any time of the day in order to increase the daily intake of high biological value proteins, it is thetimeframe from when the workout ends up to two hours later to be crucial.

American athletic trainers call it "Anabolic Window", that is Anabolic window, as it is precisely in this phase that all those mechanisms attributable to the muscle growth by stimulation and adaptation deliberately induced with intense physical exercise. In this precise phase, a normal solid meal would not allow to take advantage of this particular metabolic condition in which it exists need for fast assimilating protein, amino acid and carbohydrate nutritional sources, which only supplements like Whey protein, BCAA, Creatine, e vitargo they can provide.

The best whey protein supplements

The main quality of a product containing whey is determined by the protein concentration.
There are supplements on the market with concentrations ranging from 80 to 90%, with a reduced intake of sugars, fats and sodium, which are low in lactose or completely delactosed (also usable by intolerant people).
The market also offers formulas added with additional doses of important amino acids such as Leucine, Valine and Isoleucine (BCAA), Taurine (for the insulin-mimetic effect) as well as glutamine.
