WHEY PROTEIN MYTHS FACTS

Whey protein

• It is a component present in milk that is
  absorbed most rapidly in the body. There are two
  types of proteins in milk casein and whey. While
  casein takes time to form muscles, whey does it
  within a short span of time. Whey is processed in
  the muscles instead of liver, as is the case with
  casein. Since the discovery of this protein, it
  has taken the bodybuilding and sporting community
  by a storm all over the world.

WHEY PROTEIN Essential for Men

• When was the last time you were happy looking at
  yourself in the mirror? After all those hours of

Benefits of Consuming Whey Protein

• Weight Loss
• Assists in increasing in muscle mass
• Assist in cancer treatment
• Increase in glutathione levels (your bodys
  main water-based anti-oxidant)
• Decrease in HIV symptoms
• Decrease in triglycerides
• Decrease in total cholesterol while
  increasing HDL (good cholesterol)
• Increase in immune system function
• Increase in power in sports

Types of Whey Protein

• Whey protein concentrate - WPC contains low
  levels of fat and low levels of carbohydrates
  (lactose). The percentage of protein in WPC
  depends on how concentrated it is. Lower end
  concentrates tend to have 30 protein and higher
  end up to 90
• Whey protein isolate - WPIs are further processed
  to remove all the fat and lactose. WPI is usually
  at least 90 protein
• Whey protein hydrolysate - WPH is considered to
  be the "predigested" form of whey protein as it
  has already undergone partial hydrolysis - a
  process necessary for the body to absorb protein.
  WPH doesn't require as much digestion as the
  other two forms of whey protein. In addition, it
  is commonly used in medical protein supplements
  and infant formulas because of it's improved
  digestibility and reduced allergen potential.

When to Use Whey Protein

• Whey Protein is quickly digested, the only time
  you would want to take whey protein alone is
  within 30 to 60 minutes after a strength-training
  based workout. At any other time, you would want
  to slow down the digestion of the protein by
  eating it with other foods.
• Example, if you want extra protein for breakfast,
  but dont want eggs, you can add the whey protein
  powder to some oats, in various pancake recipes.

Why is Protein Important for Muscle Building?

• Muscle growth relies on adequate proteins being
  available. That means a balance between protein
  intake and protein breakdown something
  scientists call protein balance. To further
  explain, to achieve muscle growth an individual
  should combine weight training along with a
  positive protein balance meaning that protein
  intake and synthesis is higher than protein
  breakdown.
• During a heavy weights session your muscles are
  forced into protein breakdown, with the body
  splitting the amino acids into energy or using
  them to synthesise new protein. Following
  training, to promote muscle growth this
  exercise-induced protein breakdown needs to be
  turned around to be positive taking on extra
  protein is how you can do it.

Composition and Forms of Whey Protein

• Whey protein is a mixture of the following
• Beta-lactoglobulin
• Alpha-lactalbumin
• Bovine serum albumin
• Immunoglobins

Protein Powder Pros and Cons

• Pros
• It can provide a quickly absorbed source of
  protein. Generally, liquids are digested more
  quickly than solid foods. So, by drinking your
  protein, your body is absorbing it faster, which
  is good for rebuilding muscle after a workout.
• Its convenient. Because its much easier to
  carry around a plastic baggy of powder to mix
  with water or milk than a tupperware of lean meat
  and complex carbohydrates (at least I think so).
• Cons
• There can be unpleasant stuff in there. The front
  label will say 100 whey protein. Cool. Until you
  read the ingredients label, which can include
  artificial flavors. xantham gum, soybean or other
  oils, artificial sweeteners, sugar (hint
  anything with dextrose on the end is a sugar),
  and other ingredients that may be healthy or may
  not but unless you have a PhD in chemistry, who
  knows!

Whey Protein- Possible Side Effects

• Some people who are allergic to milk may be
  specifically allergic to whey. In moderate doses
  whey protein doesn't generally cause any adverse
  events.
• However, consuming severely high doses can cause
• Stomach pains
• Cramps
• Reduced appetite
• Nausea
• Headache
• Fatigue
