Use
WARNING:
These are advanced supplements. Hydrolysed whey protein isolates
have a bitter taste but will significantly boost recovery
from intense workouts. They may also be useful in other applications,
which require a rapidly digested protein.
These
are high quality hydrolysed whey protein isolates that are
rich in rapidly digested tri- and di- peptides. These peptides
are absorbed up to 234% faster than free form amino acids
and the faster protein is absorbed the more it stimulates
protein synthesis.
Tri-
and di-peptides have a molecular weight less than 800da and
approximately 30% of the peptides in the HWPI DH10 and 50%
of the peptides in the HWPI DH17 fall within this range. More

"100%
Hydrolysed!"
Yes,
both these hydrolysates are 100% hydrolysed. This is not
the same as 'Degree of Hydrolysis' (see
about hydrolysis..). Common sense tells us that if every
peptide bond was broken, we wouldn't have protein anymore,
just a mix of free-form amino acids. '100% hydrolysed' has
been conveniently defined as a protein in which every protein
molecule has be broken at least once and this is a relatively
easy criteria to meet. In fact, it probably quite difficult
to get a hydrolysate that doesn't meet this criteria. The
most important information needed to judge a hydrolysate is
the molecular weight profiles you see above, end of story.
Suggested
use
Mixed with water in a ratio of 1:2 with dextrose/maltodextrin
(ie 1 part [eg. 25g] HWPI, 1 part dextrose [eg. 25g] and 1
part maltodextrin [eg. 25g] ). Add 500ml of water to your
blender, turn the blender on and add the powder mix. Let the
foam settle for 5-10min and then add another 500ml to 1 litre
of water. I don't see any harm in adding creatine or glutamine
to this mix. Some may want to add artificial sweetener or
vanilla essence for taste. NB: Dextrose $4/kg and Maltodextrose
$6/kg, is available on the order form.
There
is a general consensus that a rapidly digested protein in
the presence of high insulin levels is important to workout
recovery. However, there is no real consensus as to the best
time to consume this drink. Recommendations range from:
a) Before workout
b) During workout
c) After workout
d) All of the above
However,
the research shows that a pre-workout drink is superior to
a post-workout drink in boosting protein synthesis. It is
really a matter of speculation whether there are benefits
to be obtained from also consuming a rapidly digested protein
plus high GI carbs during or after the workout. An argument
can be made for consuming a calcium caseinate drink after
the workout to prevent protein breakdown, if protein synthesis
has been already kicked into high gear by the pre-workout
drink.
Taste:
The taste is BITTER. How bitter? Well
Taste is
awfully subjective. Beer tastes absolutely horrible the first
time most people try it. Some of us soldier on and learn to
savour the subtleties of 'bitter'. Cigarettes are another
good (or that bad) example. I don't find the taste particularly
offensive and neither do others. However, some just can't
stand the taste. The taste can be substantially masked with
citric acid, vanilla essence or other sweetners. You have
been warned; if you are unsure ask for a sample before ordering.

all our 100% pure products MyoPures' hydrolysed whey protein
isolates are 100% pure and contains no additives or flavorings
