The perfect proteins<\/h2><\/div>

Whey proteins are among the best proteins available: they contain all the essential amino acids in the correct proportions for human needs and are particularly rich in leucine (necessary for optimal activation of muscle protein synthesis).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Which whey to choose<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

Which version to choose depends on personal needs and sensitivities.<\/p>\n

Lactose and casein sensitivity
\n<\/strong><\/span>bovine isolates <\/span>less than 1% of lactose and 0.5% of casein<\/span><\/p>\n

Cow's milk or casein sensitivity
\n<\/strong><\/span>Goat milk concentrates: less than 0.5% casein <\/span>A2<\/span> and 5% lactose<\/span><\/p>\n

Ketogenic diet
\n<\/strong><\/span>Beef isolates: lower carbohydrate content<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

HOW MUCH<\/strong>
\ndepending on individual protein intake needs
\n1 scoop = 4 grams<\/p>\n

HOW<\/strong>
\nDilute in a liquid, hot or cold; water is also fine. To mix to perfection use a milk whisk. They can also be added to: smoothie, yogurt, oatmeal, broth, soup, omelette, cake mixes, cookies, bread, etc. They can be cooked, nothing happens.<\/p>\n

ATTENTION: When adding to something hot, add one scoop at a time, stirring immediately after. If you add all 5 scoops at once, the first one will remain in contact with the hot surface for a few seconds, and small whey balls may form. Nothing happens if they coagulate; it's just a matter of palatability.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Alternatives to Whey<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

Whey proteins are one of the best protein sources available, but not everyone tolerates them. Those with lactose and casein issues can consider bovine isolate proteins. While those with casein or cow's milk issues can opt for goat concentrate proteins.<\/p>\n

If a person really can't tolerate them, you can use the\u2019albumen powder<\/a> or opt for a plant-based protein.
\nSoy protein isolate has the amino acid profile most similar to whey. Unfortunately, however, soy is an allergen and contains phytoestrogens. Furthermore, it could be GMO and therefore grown with large quantities of glyphosate. If possible, purchase an organic product.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, a cereal + legume mixture can be used, which however does not have the complete amino acid profile present in soy protein; pay particular attention to the leucine content.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>

BEEF PROTEIN<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

Unfortunately, the proteins sold on the market as \u201cbeef protein\u201d are not a valid alternative to whey. To evaluate proteins, you need to look at their amino acid profile. Beef protein contains only 4 grams of leucine per 100 g of product, while whey isolate contains 9.9 g. Leucine is crucial for initiating muscle protein synthesis. The table compares beef protein with whey isolate because both contain at least 90 g of protein per 100 g of product.<\/p>\n

The amino acid profile of beef proteins is almost identical to that of collagen, because they are extracted from beef bones containing meat residues. They are not extracted from beef, as some companies would have you believe. Bones (including human bones) are composed of 20\u201330% protein, of which 90\u201395% is collagen.<\/p>\n

Beef protein isolates from any brand have this amino acid profile. You informed me that Elisir's have an amino acid profile similar to whey. I wrote to customer service and they replied, \u201cThey derive from hydrolyzed bovine collagen obtained mainly from connective tissue, bones, and cartilage.\u201d So the amino acid profile reported on their site is incorrect. I've reported it, but it hasn't been corrected yet.<\/p>\n

The people who consume these products think they are consuming a protein extracted from bovine meat, and therefore with a high biological value amino acid profile (DIASS), but unfortunately, this is not the case.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
