      Default Why Whey Protein?

      Whey protein is one of the most commonly used dietary supplements. One of the biggest reasons for this is the positive effects it has on muscle recovery. Many athletes and bodybuilders prefer it because it aids them in establishing a lean, well-established physique. When you are weight training you need twice as much recommended daily allowance of protein in your body. The protein that is chosen makes a difference and whey is often the choice of athletes everywhere.

      Whey protein is naturally complete. This means it contains all of the essential amino acids required in one's daily diet. It can help improve body composition and serves to enhance performance.

      Whey protein is also a rich source of branch chain amino acids, or BCAAs which contain the highest known levels of any natural source of food. BCAAs are important for bodybuilders because they are directly metabolized into muscle tissues and are used first during exercise and resistance training. This sets them apart from the other proteins. Whey protein gives the body BCAAs which replenish depleted levels of protein and

      Begins to repair and rebuild lean muscle tissue.

      Whey protein also contains the essential amino acid Leucine which is important to bodybuilders because of its significant role in promoting muscle protein synthesis and growth. Research has shown that those who exercise benefit from diets high in Leucine and have bodies comprised of more lean muscle tissue and less body fat.

      Whey protein is also a soluble, protein that is easily digested. It is absorbed into the body efficiently and quickly provides nourishment to muscles. It is often referred to as a "fast" protein because of this.

      Whey protein also increases the levels of glutathione which the immune system remain healthy. Glutathione is an anti-oxidant that is required for a healthy immune system. While exercise and resistance training may reduce levels of glutathione, whey protein dietary supplements can help make up the difference and balance it all out.

      Whey protein will help keep bodybuilders healthy and strong so the optimal performance can be reached. This is a definite advantage as exercise and resistance training require a lot of energy and strength.

      Whey protein can be purchased in the form of a powder and added to many foods and drinks. It can be found at drug stores and super markets alike and is not an expensive supplement to purchase. There are, in fact, many ways to use it that taste great. Shakes and smoothies are among the most common.

      While other proteins may be supplemented in the diet, whey should definitely be considered because of its many benefits and advantages. It will provide energy and help the muscles grow as they are recovering from the rigorous workouts. It can be consumed as part of several of the five or six small meals you'll eat each day and works very well with the body just after a workout has been completed.

      Great info Diva. Thanks!
      People should be taking whey just for the glutathione raising alone! That boosts the immune system and helps keep us well.
