🥩 WHEY ISOLATE vs WHEY CONCENTRATE 🥛
AKA… Why your protein choice actually matters 😅
Here’s the funny but real truth 👇
If you don’t hit your daily protein goal, your body still needs raw materials to rebuild.
And when it can’t find them?
👉 It starts borrowing from your muscle 😬
That’s how muscle wasting sneaks in.
Think of protein as raw materials 🧱
No materials = no build
No build = your body improvises (and not in a good way)
⚖️ So what’s the difference?
🔹 Whey Concentrate
• Slightly higher fats & carbs
• Great option if calories aren’t a concern
• More “whole food” style protein
🔹 Whey Isolate
• Higher protein percentage
• Lower fats, carbs, lactose
• Easier digestion, cleaner absorption
• Ideal for fat loss or sensitive stomachs
🧠 The big takeaway:
To maintain muscle, aim for roughly
👉 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight (general rule)
Not sure which protein fits your goal?
