Active Ingredients
Whey Protein
Rivalwhey includes three different forms of whey protein: isolate, concentrate, and hydrosylate.
Although all whey is fast-absorbing, the three forms all vary slightly in digestion speed, providing a smooth stream of protein when consumed.
The most abundant form in this formula – whey protein isolate – is a very refined form, containing only traces of carbohydrates and fats.
Whey has been proven to significantly increase the growth and repair of muscle (1).
Enzymes
Lactase is an enzyme that assists our digestive system to break down and absorb lactose – the naturally-occurring sugar in cows’ milk.
This is a useful addition to the formula for those who tend to get gas or digestion issues after consuming dairy products.
Who Takes It?
Any athlete wanting a lean source of protein to fuel their muscle gains and recovery will enjoy Rival Whey.
How to Take
Mix 1 scoop (29.9g) with 250mL water or milk, and consume after your workout, or as desired.
Side Effects
Excess protein consumption can worsen an existing liver or kidney condition.

Conclusion
Rivalwhey is yet another no-frills protein powder that should be great for lean muscle gain.
The low-carb, low-fat formula gives you the freedom to add it to a more complete shake, or even baking recipes.
The added enzymes are a nice touch for people whose systems don’t tolerate dairy well, and the range of flavours and tub sizes can suit anyone’s preferences.
