Ingredients explained
Whey protein isolate
Provides complete, fast-digesting essential amino acids that may support muscle protein synthesis after exercise.
Caution: Contains milk proteins; avoid if you have a dairy allergy or sensitivity.
Whey protein concentrate
Supplies a broad spectrum of essential amino acids, including BCAAs, to help replenish amino acid pools needed for muscle repair.
Caution: Contains lactose and milk proteins, which may cause discomfort in people with lactose intolerance or dairy allergies.
Hydrolyzed whey protein
Partially broken-down peptides are absorbed quickly, which may help deliver amino acids to muscles promptly post-workout.
Caution: Still a milk-derived ingredient; those with dairy allergies should avoid.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)
Acts as an antioxidant and enzyme cofactor that may help support connective tissue formation and overall recovery processes.
Caution: High intakes may cause digestive upset in some people; consider total daily vitamin C from all sources.
Zinc (as zinc oxide)
Functions as a cofactor for protein and DNA synthesis enzymes, which may support normal muscle repair and immune function.
Caution: Excess zinc from multiple supplements may cause nausea or interfere with copper balance; track overall zinc intake.
How they work together
Fast-digesting whey proteins supply essential amino acids rapidly, while hydrolyzed whey provides smaller peptides for quick absorption. Vitamin C and zinc serve as enzyme cofactors and antioxidants that may support normal tissue repair alongside protein-driven muscle building.
