Bodybuilding.com Signature 100% Whey Isolate

Whey protein is the benchmark standard for those wanting to consume more protein and build muscle. The Bodybuilding.com Signature 100% Whey Isolate has 25 grams of protein, 2 grams of carbohydrates, 0.5 grams of fat, and 1 gram of un-added sugar per 30 gram scoop. The post-workout consumption of whey has been extensively shown to increase muscle strength, size, performance while also helping decrease muscle soreness and body fat [1]. The rationale behind its effectiveness is the high amount of leucine, which has specifically shown to greatly impact protein synthesis and muscle growth.One 30-gram scoop of whey protein has approximately 3 grams of leucine which has shown to trigger an anabolic response [2].

Many athletes choose this whey protein because it is faster absorbing, quicker digesting, and it produces a more rapid response on protein synthesis.  Whey protein is a complete protein with high levels of the essential and branched chain amino acids that can be readily used by the body [3]. Whey is absorbed within 60 minutes of digestion while casein, soy, and egg proteins took several hours [4]. Whey has the highest per gram/hour absorption rate with 9 grams as opposed to casein with 6 grams, soy with 4 grams, and cooked eggs with 3 grams [3].This quick absorption can lead to higher amino acid availability and therefore greater ability for protein synthesis and overall muscle growth [5].
