 Ultra-Filtered Whey Protein

Ultra-filtered whey protein is a highly refined form of whey protein obtained through advanced filtration techniques that remove fat, lactose, and other non-protein components while preserving protein quality. This process results in a concentrated product with high biological value and rapid absorption.

It is especially popular among athletes and fitness enthusiasts due to its excellent amino acid profile, particularly rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) such as leucine, which play a crucial role in muscle protein synthesis and recovery.

Ultra-filtered whey protein is quickly digested and absorbed, making it ideal for post-workout supplementation when the body needs immediate amino acids to support muscle repair and growth.

Synonyms:

Microfiltered Whey, Ultra-Filtered Whey Isolate (when in isolate form).

Benefits:

  • Supports muscle growth and recovery
  • Rapid absorption post-exercise
  • Rich in essential amino acids and BCAAs
  • Low in fats and lactose
  • Promotes lean body mass

Sources:

Derived from cow’s milk through ultrafiltration and drying processes.

Observations:

Commonly found in powders, shakes, and bars. Dosage varies but typically ranges from 20 to 40 g per serving. Suitable for most users unless lactose intolerant (though ultrafiltration reduces lactose). Excessive intake may burden the kidneys in predisposed individuals.
