But there are also different <em>forms<\/em> of these sources, which some consumers may find confusing.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since whey is generally regarded as the most effective source of protein for supporting resistance training gains and recovery, it\u2019s important to get a good understanding of its different forms. Here, we&#8217;ll take a deep dive into the different forms of whey protein, with a specific focus on hydrolyzed whey.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What Are the main types of whey protein?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every protein powder undergoes a decent amount of processing to become the stuff you chuck into your shaker bottle. With whey protein, this involves filtration and separation of whey from full dairy sources, and higher quality supplements will undergo additional processes to remove things like fat, lactose, and other dairy components. The end result of this process is the type of whey you get. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/the-hard-gainers-guide-to-building-muscle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Hard-Gainer\u2019s Guide To Building Muscle<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are three main types of whey protein: whey protein concentrate, whey protein isolate, and whey protein hydrolysate, also known as hydrolyzed whey. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Whey concentrate<\/strong> is usually the least isolated form of whey, but also the cheapest. To qualify as <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/20565767\/\">whey protein concentrate<\/a>, a protein powder would have to be between 29 percent and 89 percent total protein by volume. That\u2019s quite the spread, so this is why you might want to be weary with super-cheap protein sources. For the most part, many whey protein concentrate sources <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/20565767\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are between 70 percent to 80 percent protein by volume<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; this results in a decently effective product without increasing price too much.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Whey protein isolate<\/strong> is a step above concentrate; isolate is at least <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/20565767\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">90 percent protein by volume<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This leads to isolate products being more \u201cpure\u201d than concentrate products\u2014and typically more expensive, too. One easy way to tell the difference between two sources is to look at total scoop size vs. how many grams of protein there are in a scoop. Cheaper concentrate products will probably have about 25 grams of protein in a 40 gram scoop, whereas a whey isolate could have that same 25 grams of protein in a 30 gram scoop.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Hydrolyzed whey<\/strong> is a form of whey in which at least 80 percent of the whey protein in the product consists of tiny protein molecules called peptides. To be able to do this, a manufacturer has to perform protein hydrolysis, which either involves an enzymatic process or superheating the protein to break down longer protein chains into smaller peptides. This is an expensive process, which is why hydrolyzed whey ends up costing more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/easy-ways-increase-protein-intake\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">9 Easy Ways To Increase Your Protein Intake<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what are the benefits of hydrolyzed whey? Well, our bodies also hydrolyze protein using enzymes in our digestive system. Since a good chunk of hydrolysis is already done with hydrolyzed whey, we can digest it even faster than other sources of whey. Additionally, we likely get more \u201cbenefit\u201d per gram of protein with hydrolyzed whey since it\u2019s so readily digestible, which can help you retain more protein.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>When Is hydrolyzed whey The Best Option?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hydrolyzed whey has many perks, but to determine which form of whey protein is best for you, you have to start with your goals. This is one step that far too many people skip over. How can you know what supplements might help you if you don\u2019t know your objectives?&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your main fitness goal is to gain muscle and\/or strength, you\u2019re probably fine with any form of whey protein. We don\u2019t have many studies on the topic, but the ones we do have (like <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/31480653\/\">this one<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/20565767\/\">this one<\/a>) show that any form of whey will help you gain muscle and strength at a similar rate<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, keep in mind that many of these studies included untrained folks, or people using protein supplements for the first time. That\u2019s not a direct apples-to-apples comparison with someone who\u2019s been training regularly for years while consistently eating a high-protein diet. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, one very interesting <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/27710436\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> did find that subjects taking hydrolyzed whey also lost a lot of body fat throughout a training program, whereas subjects taking other forms of whey did not. All groups made similar muscle gains, but the hydrolyzed group also got shredded. The science behind why this happened is a little murky, but <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25792976\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">rodent studies<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> suggest that consuming hydrolyzed protein can increase fat-burning hormones within 30-minutes of consumption.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, if your primary goal with exercise or resistance training is to lose fat, hydrolyzed whey might be worth the extra coin. On the flip side, if you\u2019re only concerned about building muscle or strength, or if you\u2019re an athlete in a weight-gain phase, you can probably save a few bucks and stick with other forms of whey protein. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As always, your nutrition and supplements should support your goals, so you need to identify your goals before filling your shopping cart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"23050\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/fitness-supplements\/dr-jacob-wilson\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?fit=400%2C400&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"400,400\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Dr Jacob Wilson\" data-image-description data-image-caption data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?fit=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?fit=400%2C400&amp;ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"wp-image-23050 alignleft lazyloaded jetpack-lazy-image jetpack-lazy-image--handled\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?resize=213%2C213&amp;ssl=1\" sizes=\"(max-width: 213px) 100vw, 213px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?w=400&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?resize=272%2C272&amp;ssl=1 272w\" alt width=\"213\" height=\"213\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?w=400&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?resize=272%2C272&amp;ssl=1 272w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whatsgood.vitaminshoppe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Dr-Jacob-Wilson.jpg?resize=213%2C213&amp;ssl=1\" data-lazy-loaded=\"1\"><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><br>\nKnown as \u2018The Muscle Ph.D.,\u2019 Dr. Jacob Wilson has a knack for transforming challenging, complex concepts into understandable lessons that can support your body composition and health goals.
