- Pure high-DH hydrolyzed whey protein
Hydrolysis is the natural intestinal process of breaking down whole proteins found in food and supplements into smaller proteins, called peptides (Micro Peptides), and amino acids.
DH is the degree of hydrolysis, which indicates the extent to which the protein has been broken down. Higher DH means more rapid and complete absorption. In order to be absorbed, protein must be hydrolyzed down to amino acids or to the smallest peptides, called di and tripeptides.
- Suggested/Recommended/Usage/Directions
- Proto Whey is designed for use as a primary source of protein and may be used at any time of the day. It may be consumed alone or with carbohydrate foods, depending on individual calorie needs.

- Targeted protein delivery
Di and tripeptides target the PEPT-1 transporter which transports over 8,400 possible different di and tripeptides. Whole protein digestion relies heavily on amino acid transporters which are less efficient and transport only a fraction of what PEPT-1 transporters do when protein is delivered as di and tripeptides instead of whole proteins.
The speed and efficiency of the PEPT-1 transport system allows for faster delivery of protein throughout the body and bypasses other systems that can limit the delivery of amino acids.
Di and tripeptides carry metabolic information not present in amino acids. High-DH proteins deliver protein into the blood primarily as di and tripeptides whereas whole protein digestion delivers a high quantity of amino acids.

- Hydrolyzed whey advantages
+Requires less breakdown and digestive energy than whole proteins.
+Contains 10 grams of essential amino acids per serving. EAAs cannot be synthesized by the body and must be supplied by the diet.
+Low glycemic response.
+Mixes easily- no blender required.
+Industry-leading, rich and creamy taste profile.
