Why Whey Protein Isolates?
Whey protein isolates are the purest form of whey protein that currently exists. Because they are produced through a cold filtering process, they retain more undenatured protein than other forms of whey protein supplementation. This high-quality ingredient provides all the essential amino acids needed to build new muscle tissues and speed up recovery time after workouts.
Optimum Nutrition has perfected its manufacturing process so that you get nothing but pure whey isolate in every scoop without any fat or lactose for your bodybuilding supplement needs.
Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) Main Ingredient
Whey protein isolate is the main ingredient in Gold Standard 100% Whey. It has been filtered to remove carbohydrates, fats, lactose, and ash so that you are left with whey protein in its purest form.
Over 4 Grams of Glutamine & Glutamic Acid in Each Serving
Glutamine is an abundant amino acid found throughout the body that helps support muscle tissue growth and enhances recovery time after exercise. Glutamic acid is a nonessential amino acid that supports mental alertness and memory retention.
24g of Whey Protein Per Serving
This exceeds the standard 20 grams by four additional grams. With more protein per serving, you are not only free to take this supplement on your workout days or non-workout days but also before bedtime for building new muscle while you sleep.
5.2 G of Naturally Occurring BCAAs in Each Serving
BCAAs refer to three essential amino acids—leucine, isoleucine, and valine—that are involved in protein metabolism. Going beyond standard amino acid profiles found in whey protein supplements, Optimum Nutrition has included 5.2 grams of these important Amino Acids in each serving of Gold Standard 100% Whey.
4 G Glutamine & Glutamic Acid in Each Serving
Glutamine is an abundant amino acid found throughout the body that helps support muscle tissue growth and enhances recovery time after exercise. Glutamic acid is a nonessential amino acid that supports mental alertness and memory retention.
Smallest Carbohydrate Content of Any Whey Isolates with Under 1.5g Per Serving!
With carbs, fats, sugars, or lactose all taken out of Gold Standard 100% Whey, you are left with less than 1.5 grams per serving, which makes it one of the lowest carbohydrate content supplements on the market today.
Improved Recovery Time after Workouts
The best workout routines are often short and intense. Therefore, it is important to have a post-workout supplement that will aid in refuelling your muscles quickly. Gold Standard, 100% Whey, helps you achieve this by using an advanced technology called cross-flow microfiltration processing (cold-filtered). This process delivers undenatured proteins into your body that are rapidly absorbed and digested. Thus, they are available for muscle growth sooner than other types of whey protein isolates.
Extreme Milk Chocolate Flavour
If you enjoy a rich, smooth taste in your protein shake, you will love the Extreme Milk Chocolate flavour of Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard 100% Whey. This tasty supplement is perfect for any time of the day and can be used as part of an effective weight management program.
