Proteins for athletes
Proteins are essential for our body and play a crucial role, especially for athletes. On average, the protein needs of people who exercise are higher.

Proteins are made up of amino acids. Although our body can produce some amino acids itself, there are nine amino acids for which this is not the case. These are also called essential amino acids, and we need to obtain them from our diet.

Proteins in food
Protein can be found in various foods, both from animal sources such as meat, fish, and dairy, as well as from plant sources like beans, nuts, and grains.

Nutritional value per 100 grams
Tuna 29 grams
Beef steak 23 grams
Chicken breast 23 grams
Nuts 20 grams
Oats 13 grams
Eggs 12 grams
Tofu 12 grams
Cottage cheese 8 grams
Lentils (cooked) 9 grams

Elite Whey – High protein content >86%
Elite Whey is a high-quality protein powder, containing protein isolate and protein hydrolysate. Various steps are required to obtain these forms.

The first step in making Elite Whey is concentrating the whey. Liquid whey, which is a byproduct of cheese making, is first filtered. Then we concentrate the whey by drying it. This process results in a rich, concentrated protein powder with a full and creamy taste, which serves as the basis for the next steps in the production of Elite Whey.

More than 90% pure Isolate
To obtain isolate, the concentrated whey is further filtered. During this step, fat, sugar, and lactose are almost completely removed, resulting in an extremely pure whey isolate. This isolate is characterized by a very high protein content of at least 90%.

Best absorbable hydrolysate
To make hydrolysate, a specially patented enzymatic hydrolysis process is applied. During this process, enzymes break down the protein chains into smaller fragments, resulting in a more easily digestible protein powder and more efficient absorption by the body.

100% natural
Elite Whey is completely free from added sugars and synthetic flavorings. Instead, we use stevia, a natural sweetener derived from the leaves of the Stevia Rebaudiana plant. This plant is also known as honey herb.

This unique plant mainly grows in South America, particularly in Paraguay and Brazil, where it has been used for centuries by the local population as a sweetener. Stevia is up to 450 times sweeter than sugar. This allows us to create a wonderfully mild, sweet taste with a very small amount, without needing to add sugar.

Complete amino acid profile
Although all protein sources contain essential amino acids, the ratio in which they occur varies. Proteins with a complete amino acid profile have these amino acids in the exact ratios that your body needs.

Elite Whey Protein has a complete amino acid profile and therefore provides all essential amino acids in exactly the right ratios.

BCAAs in a 2:1:1 ratio
Three of the essential amino acids deserve a little extra attention: the BCAAs. Leucine, isoleucine, and valine stand out due to their branched structure, which gives them the name branched chain amino acids. These amino acids form an important building block for protein synthesis. Therefore, we have added extra BCAAs to Elite Whey Protein, on top of the BCAAs that the isolate-hydrolysate mix already contained. A scoop contains no less than 7.3 grams of BCAAs.

Added lactase helps in lactose digestion
Lactose is a sugar that is naturally present in milk. During cheese production, a large part of the lactose ends up in the whey. In our body, lactose is broken down by the enzyme lactase. When this enzyme is not produced or produced insufficiently, people may have a harder time tolerating lactose.

For people who have difficulty digesting lactose, lactase is needed to digest lactose. That is why we have added lactase to Elite Whey, which promotes the breakdown of lactose.

High enzyme activity
When using an enzyme, not only the amount is relevant. The special thing about enzymes is that they are not consumed in a reaction but continue to work continuously. Therefore, it is also important to look at the activity of enzymes, whether and how much lactose they can break down and how quickly. The lactase in Elite Whey has an enzyme activity of 160,000 FCC/gram. This breaks down 97-100% of the lactose.

Added proteases
To digest proteins, our body uses other enzymes, which are also known as proteases. These enzymes cut the long protein chains into smaller pieces.

Activity of 800 LAPU/g
Here, a distinction is made between endo- and exopeptidases. Endopeptidases cut in the middle of a protein chain, while exopeptidases can cut at the ends. We have added both variants to Elite Whey with a high enzyme activity of 800 LAPU/g or 8,000 PCU/g.

Elite Whey, Creatine & fruit
Want to get the most out of your training? Combine Elite Whey with a creatine product and fast-digesting carbohydrates, such as certain fruits. This mix ensures improved absorption of creatine, as carbohydrates and proteins cause an insulin spike that helps creatine absorb faster into your muscles.
