Sam’s 2nd Seventh Supplementation Post
Hello and welcome to another installment of BlogNTone. This week we’ll be talking about supplements with a focus on proteins. So they’re are many types of proteins out there. so in addition to talking about what each typ of protein is, we’ll also mention when is a good time to take it as well what it’s good for. so let’s get started.
1. Whey Concentrate. Now whey concentrate you’ve probably seen tubs of this type everywhere. That’s because it’s cheaper than most, and great start for beginners. Now this isn’t a bad protein to take before or after a workout but it can leave you feeling bloated and kind of gassy.
2. Casein Protein. This is protein is a slower burning protein that can take up to 7 hours to completely break down after finishing your shake. In addition to this Casein is also high in Glut-amine, which helps a lot with you immune system as well as your standard muscle recovery. Casein is also one of the only proteins recommend to use whenever even at night.
3. Whey Isolates. Now in addition to the concentrate there is also a Whey isolate. This stuff is faster absorbing than is cousin and also low in carbs and sugar. now this stuff is great pre or post workout.
4. Hydrolysate proteins. The term Hyrdolysate refers to the protein product going through what is known as hydrolysis. This process allows the protein to maximize the amount of nutrients transferred to the muscles.
5. Soy proteins. Now these, believe it or not, are a great source of vegitarian proteins. I know right who’d of thought?!?!?! Soy proteins are also high in BCAAs and glut-amine which both help in recovery. it also has isoflavones in it which are known to help with your cholesterol profile. Soy is also known to boost your thyroid hormone levels which will help boost your metabolism.
6. Milk Protein isolate. This protein is a combo of both casein and whey, and full of aminos because of it. Now this also makes for a great meal replacement.
7. Egg albumin. Now these are a great source of proteins no matter the approach. The thing you have to remember about this type of protein is, you can’t just buy this in a ready to ingest form. Egg Albumin is usually purchased in a carton or you seperate them yourself from the yolk and cook them so the convineance is out the window. They are high in Amino acids though if that helps.
Now remember, you want to make sure you get you’re protein from everywhere. Casein point, chicken, pork, beef, fish, everywhere keep you diet balanced. You don’t want to Isolate yourself and Concentrate on just one type of protein. That is not the Whey to go. Soy just keep that in mind. Anywhey I don’t think I can milk this conclusion any further *cough*Hydrolysate*cough*. Thanks eggveryone for reading and remember, Trim it down, Tone it up, And always gotta want it.
