Whey Protein Concentrate
Whey Concentrate is commonly known as WPC. It is fractionated and dried so the protein content is about 80%. The other 20% is remaining constituent parts: fat, cholesterol and lactose. It contains less protein gram for gram and higher levels of fat, cholesterol and lactose than other forms available. Most users report that it tastes the best and is considered to be a good source of protein for customers who want a general protein supplement that will help improve their overall health.Whey Protein Isolate
Commonly known as WPI. Further purification to WPC leads to whey isolates. Whey isolate is fractionated and dried so that the protein content is about 90%. Hence fast absorbing. Whey isolate is a form of whey purified without the use of heat. Isolates tend to be lower in lactose, fat and cholesterol than whey concentrates and hence provides more protein and less of non-essential nutrients. Generally 97% lactose free, with virtually no fat. Recommended for sportsmen for rapid recovery and lean muscle gain. Since, it is absorbed quickly, it maximize the anabolic response to the exercise.

A. Everyone should have all 20 amino acids available to the body through the bloodstream all of the time. If the body does not have adequate amounts, it will break down muscle and other tissues to get the amino acids it needs for vital, life-sustaining functions ā this is known as a catabolic state. Protein is the best way to get all of the essential amino acids that the body needs. However, it can be difficult for some people to get high-quality protein daily through whole foods alone. Supplementing can thus be a good option for these. Even if you are able to get the sufficient amount of protein through your diet, protein-rich foods take time to digest and may be moderately high in calories. If you are counting calories and require fast-digesting protein, you should consider a protein supplement.
A. The GNC Pro Performance range is for those whose goal is to stay fit, active, and healthy and who partake in light to moderate resistance training. The Pro Performance Amp range is for those who prioritize increased strength, improved performance, and more muscles. These individuals would partake in weight training, cross fit, or competitive sports.
A. Determining the amount of real protein in a supplement comes down to accurate testing and measurement. To accurately calculate the amount of real protein in a protein supplement, the nitrogen from other ingredients such as amino acids, betaine and creatine, are subtracted from the total. Some companies use these ingredients to spike protein test results by not subtracting the nitrogen from these other sources. This practice is referred to as āprotein spikingā or āamino spiking.ā It is when ingredients that are not whole proteins are being used to spike protein test results. Many of these ingredients have a specific purpose and benefit, but they should not be counted as protein grams. We at GNC guarantee that every one of our protein products contains the full amount of protein stated on the label and is 100% Real Protein with NO protein spiking.
A. Whey protein is derived from the milk. Being a 100% whey protein powder, yes it is a vegetarian product.
A. Maltodextrins are part of the carbohydrates food group. They have a calorific value of 4 kcal/g. Carbohydrates support a number of the bodyās basic metabolic processes and should form 50-55% of the bodyās total energy intake. The EFSA has confirmed that the consumption of carbohydrates, including maltodextrins, supports the normal functioning of the brain and muscles.Ā (EFSA, 2014)
Maltodextrins (MDs) are a class of carbohydrates (CHOs) extracted from a range of botanical sources. They are industrially produced by enzymatic or acid hydrolysis of the starch, followed by purification and spray drying.
Along with EFSA, even the Food and Drug Administration has labeled maltodextrin as GRAS ā generally regarded as safe
Benefits of Adding Maltodextrin:
Maltodextrin (MDs) is used worldwide by many endurance athletes or sportspeople. It has been shown that a combination of MDs with protein and/or amino acids can promote enhanced glycogen recovery and stimulate muscle protein synthesis following an intense exercise protocol. Thus, this carbohydrate provides the body with an easily digested quick supply of glycogen. Hence, acts as an ideal source of energy for intra and post-workouts.Ā (D. L. HOFMAN et.al, 2019, Costill and Hargreaves, 1992; Shi et al., 1995; Brouns, 2003; Kerksick et al., 2008).
Glycogen replenishment can happen better when carbohydrates are consumed along with protein with amino acids. Recommendations for adequate post-exercise carbohydrate consumption are to consume 0.6ā1.0 g/kg carbohydrate within 30 min of cessation of the exercise and again every 2 h for the next 4ā6 h. Carbohydrate consumption of 1.2 g/kg every 30 min over 3.5 h also resulted in maximal glycogen replenishment. In cases of suboptimal post-exercise carbohydrate consumption, the addition of protein can improve glycogen replenishment and decrease symptoms of muscle damage.
Possible Health Concerns:
The article in Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition acknowledges no direct link between maltodextrin consumption and negative health effects. These same researchers also conclude that there should not be the overconsumption of foods containing maltodextrin.Ā (D.L Hoffman et. al, 2016)
It is a high GI carbohydrate and thus can spike up the blood sugar level. Hence, should be avoided by people suffering from hyperglycemia, pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes. Or we recommend consulting your doctor before consuming products containing maltodextrin.
