Whey 140 (1kg) - whey protein
Whey protein with a high biological value of 140. Without sugar, without sweeteners. Contains natural vanilla flavour.
What is Whey?
Whey is whey protein, which makes up 20% of the proteins in the milk.
It is rich in amino acids, the 8 essential amino acids in particular: L-isoleucine, L-leucine, L-lysine, L-methionine, L-phenylalanine, L-threonine, L-tryptophan and L-valine.
Biological value 140
This whey protein has a high biological value of 140. The higher it is, the better the body is able to transform the protein into endogenous protein. The body can absorb it quickly and effectively.
The whole egg is used as the reference value with a biological value of 100.
Protein is of great importance for our organism
Not only the musculature needs protein daily, but also our immune system (for example antibodies and immunoglobulins).
The German Association for Nutrition (DGE) recommends 0.8g protein per kg bodyweight daily.
Whey for athletes
Whey is particularly interesting for athletes, because it has a high content of the branched-chain amino acids L-leucine, L-valine and L-isoleucine, which are known as BCAA.
BCAA contribute to the muscle building, serve as an energy source for the metabolism and support to muscle regeneration after the training.
