Vitakruid Whey protein concentrate chocolateWhat is protein?
Proteins are the building blocks of your body and play a crucial role in the recovery and building of muscle tissue. They are involved in many processes, such as the production of enzymes and hormones. You can find proteins in foods such as meat, fish, dairy, legumes, and nuts.
Protein-rich food
Proteins are an essential part of a balanced diet. You can find them in a wide range of foods such as meat, fish, dairy, legumes, and nuts.

How much protein?
The amount of protein you need varies from person to person. In general, the recommendation is 0.8 to 1.0 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. When you exercise intensively, this recommendation is somewhat higher, depending on the type of sport.
Food Required protein per day per kg body weight
Minimum 0.8 to 1.0 grams
Endurance sports 1.2 to 1.6 grams
Strength training 1.5 to 2.0 grams
100% Whey protein concentrate
Whey proteins and casein proteins naturally occur in fresh milk. By adding enzymes, the casein proteins clump together. Cheese is then made from these proteins, and the remaining liquid is called whey. In the past, whey was a byproduct of this process, so it was often fed to animals or even discarded.
Rich creamy taste
The liquid whey we obtain is then filtered to create a pure product. By drying the product, we get a concentrated protein powder with a deliciously rich and creamy taste.
24 grams of protein per scoop
Whey Protein is a very pure protein powder with 100% protein concentrate and a minimal amount of additives. With a small amount of sucralose and chocolate extract, it has a mild taste that is not overwhelmingly sweet. This results in a very pure protein powder. With a protein content of over 80%, one scoop contains no less than 24 grams of protein and only 1.2 grams of sugar.
Well soluble
During production, we ensured that the powder is very fine. This ensures that Whey Protein dissolves well and you don't get clumps. This means you can easily mix Whey Protein in a shaker with water or milk. Additionally, you can also easily combine it with fruit in your blender!
Complete amino acid profile
Not all protein sources contain all essential amino acids. Moreover, the ratio in which they occur varies. Proteins with a complete amino acid profile have those amino acids in the exact ratios that your body needs.
Whey Protein contains a complete amino acid profile, providing you with all essential amino acids in exactly the right ratios.
Usage tip: combine with creatine and fruit
Do you want to achieve maximum results? Then combine Whey Protein with a creatine product and easily digestible carbohydrates, such as fruit. This combination ensures better absorption of creatine. Carbohydrates and proteins cause an insulin spike, which improves the uptake of creatine in your muscles.
