Why Do We Use Whey Isolate?
There are two main types of whey protein: whey protein concentrate and whey protein isolate. The main difference between whey isolate and whey concentrate is what occurs during the manufacturing process. Put simply, whey isolate goes through a more intense filtering phase than whey concentrate.
The filtration process of whey isolate protein removes almost all of the non-protein macronutrients i.e. carbohydrates and fat, yielding highly pure protein content. With whey concentrate, a greater proportion of carbs and fats remain.
In whey protein concentrate, roughly half the carbohydrate content is made from lactose. Since whey protein isolate has far fewer carbs, it has less lactose content. This is why those who struggle with lactose intolerance should choose whey protein isolate over whey protein concentrate.
Whey isolate gives us the highest amount of complete protein possible giving you the most bang for your buck with our products. It digests easily, doesn't impact the baking and you can't taste the protein in our products!
Summary
When you see a product claiming X grams of protein, depending on the protein source, not all of those grams will end up available for use in your body. The bioavailability of pea and wheat is very low meaning that your body can't digest and absorb them.
Many of our competitors use casein, pea or wheat proteins in addition to whey concentrate (sometimes isolate) to increase the grams of protein stated on their labels, but you now know that you aren't getting all that protein—in some cases, by a lot!
Our whey isolate is a premium protein source and the ONLY protein we use which we believe is what our customers, you, deserve and are paying for. HelloAmino prides ourselves on the quality of our products and to that end we have chosen to use the highest quality protein available - no cheap, low quality filler proteins at HelloAmino!
Let customers speak for us
This is the best cocoa ever, just the right sweetness and it has the added protein bonus. Delicious with a slice of double chocolate brownie!
I’ve never like any of those products that contain proteins because they taste like powder. I juste discovered that brand and my oh my IT IS DELICIOUS!! it actually taste chocolate chips cookies! It is sweet enough, tender AND crunchy. A real pleasure to eat.
I’m not a big fan of pancakes, but my husband and 6 year old are so we tried these out. These are so delicious and have the perfect amount of sweetness to them that even I am now wanting to eat them! I love that I can get a good amount of protein for breakfast in with these. When our son tried it, he ate 4 of them in one sitting! Can’t wait to try more of your products!
I always make the supercharged single serving hack when making my pancakes and these, these are beyond delicious! I'm now using them to recover postpartum and they have the perfect amount of chocolate chips and chocolatey goodness in there without being too sweet. These have quickly become my fave pancake mix.
These are sooooo delicious. Definitely will be a repeat purchase!
Love all the possible options with the muffins. Every time is a different kind and never disappoints. Thank you for all the ideas :)
My go to before my workout! I love a sweet breakfast, and this does the trick without all the sugar!
A healthy alternative for a nighttime treat, love it!
I love these! I’m not even the biggest fan of the flavour in general but I made them exactly as suggested and OMG… these are so good I started eating before I was done cooking them lol!
Two of my favourite products. I make the brownie for dessert often when we have friends around for dinner and it is always a winner.
My decadent treat - a mug of hot protein cocoa and a slice of brownie - heaven
Vanilla protein pudding is such a sweet indulgence without the guilt!! It's a fantastic after dinner treat!! I can't get enough!
I've bought the vanilla pudding twice now and I eat it all right away in single servings...one after another...til the package is gone haha. It's so good, the best pudding ever! I prefer it over the chocolate pudding.
I bought this mix a couple weeks back and finally tried it lastnight (note - that was the longest anything HelloAmino has lasted in this household..usually when I buy stuff I eat it all right away haha) I bake banana bread often but this was so much better than any banana bread I've ever had! It smelled amazing when it was baking, I took it out when it was finished and could hardly wait til it was fully cooled to try it. My boyfriend and I absolutely loved it! So soft, tasty, just perfect!!!
The banana bread is so delicious!! Baked it up and had to have a piece once it had cooled a little. My kiddos gobbled this piece as well!! Amazing product!!
Eat them plain, or add some blueberries. Top with yogurt or cottage cheese and chicken sausage, and I have nearly 50g of protein for breakfast! I never ate pancakes before HelloAmino!
The Banana loaf was delicious! And with xtra protein why not!
