Ingredients explained
Whey protein concentrate (undenatured, microfiltered)
Provides essential and branched-chain amino acids that supply building blocks for muscle proteins and support post-exercise recovery.
Caution: Contains milk proteins; avoid if you have a dairy allergy or sensitivity to whey.
Leucine
Activates mTOR signaling, which may stimulate muscle protein synthesis after exercise.
Caution: High single-amino-acid intake on an empty stomach may cause mild nausea in some people.
Isoleucine
Serves as a branched-chain amino acid used by muscles for energy and protein building during and after activity.
Caution: Excess isolated BCAA intake without balanced protein may cause gastrointestinal discomfort.
Valine
Functions as a branched-chain amino acid that participates in muscle energy metabolism and protein construction.
Caution: May cause stomach upset in high amounts when taken alone; consume with food or as part of protein.
Enzyme blend (bromelain, protease, amylase, lipase, papain)
Digestive enzymes help break down proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, which may improve tolerance and nutrient availability from the shake.
Caution: People sensitive to pineapple or papaya may react to bromelain or papain; stop use if irritation occurs.
How they work together
Whey protein provides a full spectrum of amino acids, including BCAAs, that serve as the raw materials for muscle proteins. The added enzyme blend helps break down macronutrients, which may aid digestion and absorption of the protein.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Consult a health professional before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to conceive, or if you take medication, have a medical condition, or anticipate surgery.
Who should be cautious: People with milk allergy or dairy sensitivity. Individuals with pineapple or papaya sensitivity due to bromelain and papain enzymes. Those with digestive enzyme sensitivities. If on medications or with medical conditions, discuss with a healthcare provider before use.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place.
