Product Information

The recommended daily allowance (RDA) of protein, as established by the National Academy of Medicine, starts at a low of around 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight for sedentary adults 18 and over, or about 0.36 grams per pound of body weight. (The RDA for children is higher, at 1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight.) Capuano, E., & Janssen, A. (2021). Food Matrix and Macronutrient Digestion.

The Gourmet Chocolate flavor was great. It’s very sweet and quite mild, so it made milk absolutely taste like a frothy, creamy shake. I’m not usually surprised by chocolate protein powder tasting good with milk, but I was surprised when I discovered that Iso 100 tasted fantastic with water.This is a very rare feat. Each serving only has 20 grams of protein, which is on the low end. Many protein powders are in the mid-to-high 20s.Not all cholesterol is bad, but if you need to watch your cholesterol, there’s only 15mg of cholesterol in here. Compare that with non-grass-fed proteins, which can have up to 70mg per serving. Some ingredients that can increase the cost of a whey isolate are added digestive enzymes, BCAAs, or electrolytes. Formulas can range in price based on the type of milk used to get the whey isolate as well, such as grass-fed (more expensive) versus grain-fed (less expensive) dairy cows. How We Tested and Chose the Best Whey Isolate Protein Powders

Then, I made Fruity Pebbles crispy treats. The recipe was essentially the same as the ones with melted marshmallows, butter, and cereal, plus a couple scoops of protein powder. The supplement mixed right in and added bright colors to the squares. Yes, it fell into the dessert category, but I didn’t get the typical sugar crash, largely thanks to the increased protein content. I leveled up my strength training. I should point out that a big part of the reason this tastes good with water is that it really is quite sweet so if you don’t have much of a sweet tooth, you might not enjoy this product so much. The Takeaway Dymatize Iso 100 Pros Some of the flavors are higher in sodium, which might not be ideal if you’re trying to cut weight and water.Mexican Chocolate tastes a bit different from any other chocolate protein we’ve tried and it’s hard to put our finger on, but it is good nonetheless. While the taste is indeed great, the protein content is on the lower side. This also has more carbs than most other whey isolates because of the natural flavorings. One thing that makes this protein stand out is its third-party certification from Informed Sport. This means that it is certified to be free of banned substances, which is key for competitors in tested sports. Onnit Grass-Fed Whey Isolate at the BarBend garage for testing Specs Tang, J.

Whey concentrate contains around three grams, but neither of these numbers are typically enough to affect someone with lactose intolerance. References

Plant-based protein: People who are sensitive to dairy or who prefer plant-based sourcing have plenty of protein powder options. Pea, rice, soy, and hemp protein are all common. Many single-source plant-based proteins don't provide a full amino acid profile, so different sources are often blended together. Egg: Egg protein is very easy for the body to utilize and has an absorption rate between whey and casein. Egg protein mixes smoothly and can be found both on its own and blended with other protein types. This can be a good choice for customers who are sensitive to lactose. Do you need protein powder? This is sweetened with stevia as well as sucralose, and stevia can cause a bitter taste. Plus, people who want to avoid artificial sweeteners won’t like the added sucralose. Otherwise, there’s nothing much to say about the micronutrients. It’s pretty low in calcium with 10 percent of your RDI and not particularly high or low in cholesterol with 10mg, or 3 percent of the RDI. Dymatize ISO100 IngredientsWhey hydrolysate is the most processed — to the point where it may be called “pre-digested” — as the enzymes that break it down have already done part of the digestion for you. Like whey isolate, it contains around 90 percent protein by weight and very few fats or carbs, but since it’s already broken down, it’s absorbed faster than isolate or concentrate. It’s also more expensive than both.
