What is hydrolyzed whey?
Hydrolyzed whey is considered the highest quality protein powder on the market, thanks to the production process used to obtain an already pre-digested protein in the form of peptides. As the name suggests, this whey was obtained by hydrolysis, meaning it was broken down into much smaller protein molecules for even faster assimilation than other forms of protein. It is a production process that allows the protein to be extracted directly from fresh milk.
Hydrolyzed whey is free from impurities such as lactose and cholesterol and has a much lower carbohydrate, sugar and fat content than other protein powders. Therefore the price is logically higher. It is also more likely to be recommended for those on a confirmed level or looking for the highest quality protein.
