Whey Isolate Protein is not good quality? ?



Recommended Posts

I was surprised by the comment by my NUT made this week, that whey Isolate Protein is not good in that it does not supply the body with the full protein value on the label (Only gives 12 grams when say 30 grams), and so she want to see all Proteins B4 we use to approve it.

I have used it for years and been told by others that whey isolate is a good quality protein and best utilized by the body.

I also have a lot of it, in different flavors on hand, with high protein, low to no carbs.

Anyone have any info on this, or do I really have a lot of protein that is not great to use?

I've heard it's one of the *best* sources - so what she said is puzzling...

What is a better source?

Lots of doctors will tell you Protein shakes are garbage due to the sheer over processing to get the end result. Also, on most labels the fda is never involved and the claims on the lable haven't been tested outside the company. So make sure you do your homework

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
