Shadowhey Isolate contains 25 grams of pure, cold-processed whey protein isolate for maximum bioavailability. Cold-processing filtration helps preserve the protein’s amino acid profile, producing a high-quality protein. Our whey protein isolate supplement is perfect for post-workout consumption when you need a rapid source of protein. Its highly bioavailable source of amino acids blasts protein synthesis through the roof, leading to increased muscular gains and enhanced recovery from strenuous high-intensity training. When it comes to premium quality sources of protein for strength training athletes, there’s little disagreement that whey protein isolate ticks all the boxes. ![]() HOW IT WORKSWhey Protein Isolate is a byproduct of cheese. Whey isolate has the highest amount of protein per serving among the concentrate and hydrolysate. Whey isolate is considered to be lactose-free, carbohydrate-free, and fat-free, making it a perfect choice for people looking to add lean muscle mass. Time and time again, studies have shown that supplementing with whey protein led to improvements in lean muscle mass building and recovery. According to several studies, 25g of whey protein before or after exercise reduces muscle soreness and improves recovery for up to 3 days. The importance of whey protein for physically active people can’t be understated. ![]() BCAA or branched-chained amino acids (L-Isoleucine, L- Leucine, and L-Valine) contribute to the development of lean muscle mass, decrease muscle soreness and fatigue after a workout, and prevent catabolism – muscle wasting as the body is starting to use the muscle as a food source for energy. L-Isoleucine is an essential amino acid that acts as a catalyst for protein synthesis. It can boost the anabolic processes throughout the body, aiding in the development of specific hormones like growth or testosterone. L-Leucineis an essential amino acid, usually found in certain foods such as eggs, fish, and chicken. L-Leucine can increase growth hormone production, while also helping to increase the physical endurance levels. L-Valine is an essential amino acid that acts as a fuel reserve for the human cells. A lack of L-Valine in a diet leads to a deficit in the growth of the muscle tissue, even after training. ![]() Dorian Yates6x Mr. Olympia“Whey isolate is the bodybuilder’s go-to source for high quality, rapidly-digested protein in its purest form.

ARE WHEY PROTEIN SUPPLEMENTS SAFE?
The bottom line is that the benefits of using whey protein far outweigh the risks as long as it is taken in recommended dosages. Whey protein is a healthy way to add more protein to your diet. Most people can take whey protein supplements without suffering from adverse side effects.
What is Whey Protein?
Protein is one of the three macronutrients that the body needs to sustain in life. There are many types of protein which we will discuss further in our article. Whey protein constitutes almost 80% of the milk protein and it is one of the fast absorbing proteins.
What are the types of protein available in the market?
Whey – Due to fast absorption…
- Immediately after a workout
- When muscles are most in need of fast replenishment
- To begin the process of repairing and growing
- Between meals or when meals do not contain enough Protein
What are the different types of whey protein?
There are three types of whey protein:
- Whey Concentrate: Whey protein concentrate contains approx. 80% of protein and contains traces of fat, lactose or other compounds. Whey concentrates are more economical per gram of protein.
- Whey Isolate: As compared to whey concentrates, whey isolates contain almost 90% of protein and is fairly low in fat, sugar, and lactose. Hence, whey isolate packs more protein than concentrate. It is usually expected to include in the fitness athletes diet.
- Whey Hydrolysate: Whey Hydrolysate is isolates or concentrates which are being broken into amino acids for faster absorption and improve bioavailability. Thus, it is higher in price per gram as compared to the whey isolate and concentrates.
What is the best time to have a protein shake?
The best time to have protein shake is in the morning during your breakfast time or pre-workout to help improve your performance and post-workout i.e. within 30 minutes of your workout to help protect your muscles from breakdown.
