Whey Protein
Whey protein is a protein found in cow’s milk.
It’s hugely popular in bodybuilding due to its quick absorption and proven ability to improve muscle development (1).
Animal Whey contains two forms of whey, which only vary in their refinement.
Whey protein isolate is the purer of the two, and has had almost all traces of carbohydrates and fats removed. Whey protein concentrate is less-refined, but still is at least 80% protein.
Digestive Enzymes
Digestive enzymes are useful for breaking down food for easier digestion.
The enzymes included here (papain and bromelain), are both helpful in the breakdown of proteins.
