Proteins are the macronutrient that everyone who exercises immediately thinks of. Proteins are often linked to muscle growth or recovery, but proteins also have many other functions.
The body consists largely of proteins, making adequate intake essential for our health.
For whom?
Proteins are important for everyone. They are part of a balanced and balanced diet. As described above, they are not only important for athletes but are essential for our health.
What are Whey Proteins?
Whey proteins are a collection of proteins that are created as a by-product of cheese making. To say that this is bad for you is to say that you should not eat cheese. Pure nonsense.
Whey is a quickly absorbing form of protein, making it extremely suitable during exercise, but also as a snack to easily achieve your daily protein intake.
What are the benefits of whey proteins during exercise?
- Increased and faster protein intake
- Stimulating muscle growth
- Prevent muscle loss during a fat loss phase
- Limiting fat mass during a calorie surplus
It is important to know that these effects cannot only be linked to whey proteins. Other sources also achieve this, but with whey this will be more efficient.
