Whey protein as a dietary supplement - its composition and effect  

Whey protein enters the bloodstream just 30 minutes after consumption. Whey protein contains a total of over 20 different amino acids, including the nine most important essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, lysine, valine, histidine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine and tryptophan. As well as being found in food supplements, whey protein is also found in natural foods. This type of protein can therefore be found in milk, yoghurt and cheese, for example. In terms of its effect, the intake of whey protein can be useful after intensive sporting activity, as the rapid availability of the amino acids ensures an anabolic metabolic state overall. Whey protein therefore ensures faster muscle building after strength training, enables shorter regeneration phases, accelerates the metabolism and has an anti-catabolic effect after training.  

Using whey protein as a dietary supplement for muscle building and weight loss

Whey protein is available as a dietary supplement in three different forms: as whey protein concentrate, as whey protein isolate and as whey protein hydrolyzate. The most common form is whey protein concentrate, which has a protein content of at least 75 percent. It has an extremely high biological value, a low fat content and is generally inexpensive and of high quality. Another form of whey protein is whey protein isolate. This is a specially treated whey protein in which the fat and lactose content is almost completely removed during the manufacturing process. Whey protein isolate therefore has a protein content of between 90 and 96 percent and is also more suitable for lactose-intolerant users. Last but not least, whey protein hydrolyzate is a whey protein in which the peptide chains have already been broken down, making it even faster for the body to utilize than regular whey protein.

Whey protein is suitable for use in sport as a protein shake in combination with water or fruit juice directly after training. Whey protein ensures rapid regeneration and supports the immune system. Depending on the athlete, the recommended intake varies between 20 and 40 grams of whey protein powder after training. However, if whey protein is to be used for weight loss, it can also be taken as a meal replacement in combination with low-fat milk. In this context, whey protein has highly satiating properties with a comparatively low calorie content. As whey protein is also available in various flavors, it is also ideal for use as a flavor carrier in shakes, smoothies, pancakes and baked goods, making it a basic dietary supplement with a wide range of possible uses.
