The Science Behind the Strong
Proteins from milk are the perfect choice to help you power through a long day, keep the hunger away or recover after a workout. These benefits (and more!) come from two different types:
“Fast acting” proteins (whey)—a good choice if you’re hungry or after a workout.
“Slow acting” proteins (casein)—a good choice for long-lasting, all-day strength.
While they may provide different benefits, all proteins from milk are:
- Higher quality: Offering a unique combination of nutrients not found in most alternative protein sources.
- Simply delicious: With a mild taste and creamy mouthfeel, they are easily incorporated into a variety of sweet and savory recipes and ready-to-eat products.
- Easily made: No harsh treatments or chemicals needed—typically a combination of filters and pressures are used to gather these proteins.
Whether you’re shuffling kids around all day or looking for a tasty and filling snack, proteins from milk fit into every occasion.
On the go: Choose protein-fortified foods, such as powdered and ready-to-drink protein beverages, nutrition bars and cereals. Remember to look for these terms on the ingredient list:
- whey protein isolates
- whey protein concentrates
- casein
- caseinates
- milk protein isolates
- milk protein concentrates
