This video provides a detailed breakdown of the differences between whey concentrate and whey isolate protein supplements. Whey concentrate is made by concentrating the milk proteins in whey, resulting in a protein content of around 80% by weight. It contains a small amount of lactose and other ingredients like sugars and fats. On the other hand, whey isolate undergoes further filtration processes to isolate the milk proteins even more, resulting in a protein content of 90% or more by weight. It has virtually no lactose and is lower in fat. Both variants have similar amino acid profiles, high absorption and digestibility, and provide benefits for exercise recovery and muscle growth. However, whey concentrate may have a potentially greater benefit for fat loss. Overall, whey concentrate is a more cost-effective option, while whey isolate is suitable for those with lactose intolerance or needing precise protein measurement. #wheyprotein #wheyconcentrate #wheyisolate #fitnesssupplements #proteinsupplements
