Gaspari Myofusion Protein
Protein powders are a convenient and often a very cost effective way, of getting easily digestible protein into your diet. This is especially relevant to athletes, bodybuilders and active individuals. Gaspari Nutrition’s MyoFusion protein is a great tasting blend of four different types of proteins along with some healthy fats. It makes a great breakfast protein shake, to go along with oats or other cereals.
Myofusion’s Athlete’s Edge Complete Protein Blend includes Cross-Flow, Cold Infused Whey Protein Concentrate, Cross-Flow, Cold Infused, Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate, Egg Albumin, Milk Protein Isolate. These are all high quality protein sources, in that cross flow, cold infused filtration is a gentle process that keeps a lot of the beneficial whey microfractions intact. The healthy fats in Myofusion’s Pro-Compliance Lipid Complex are in the form of Cold-Processed Sunflower Oil Powder, Micro-Encapsulated Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) and Cold-Processed Flax Seed Oil Powder. With the lipids (fats), cold processing should prevent them from oxidizing and going rancid.
CNP ProPeptide
CNP Professional Pro Peptide is one of the better protein blends available on the market today. Even as whey protein becomes popular, and for good reasons, there is a solid scientific base for the use of casein and egg proteins in building muscle and enhancing recovery. ProPeptide protein can be used at any time of the day, including before going to bed as the slow digesting milk proteins will continue to nourish the body for hours as it sleeps.
Dymatize Elite Whey
Protein is an important building block, the majority of which should be attained from one’s diet. Supplementing with protein powders is an easy way to get the extra protein required by active individuals. Whey protein is manufactured using sweet whey, which is a by-product of the cheese making industry. The sweet whey is put through various filtering processes to remove the fat and sugar (lactose), leaving protein. Whey has a very high PER (protein efficiency ratio) and BV (biological value).
Dymatize Elite Whey is a popular whey protein supplement. Its main ingredients are whey protein isolate, whey protein concentrate, whey peptides and digestive enzymes. Though its a proprietary blend, the fact that it only has 5mg of cholesterol per serving leads me to believe that it predominantly consists of whey protein isolate. found that this protein powder mixed very easily, even when just using a fork. For those using a shaker bottle, mixing Dymatize whey is extremely easy. It had no lumps at all.
