NOW Whey Protein is a delicious blend of high quality whey protein concentrate and isolate. This blend of specially processed whey proteins is designed to maximize amino acid absorption and biological value (BV). Each 1 scoop serving typically has over 5,300 mg of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). Extra glutamine has also been added (467 mg per serving) to this blend. In addition, matcha green tea, a superfood with naturally occurring polyphenols, chlorophyll, and L-theanine has been included. It's the perfect alternative to coffee and because of its strong flavor, it is an invigorating add-on to a protein shake.
Whey protein is considered to have the highest biological value (BV) of any protein source - superior in essential amino acid content to beef, milk, casein or soy.
