Why would you? In a highly purified protein supplement with negligible (i.e. virtually ZERO) carbs in it, unless you’re going to blend up your low carb shake with a potato, a starch blocker would be completely useless. In addition, it may negatively affect the protein efficiency ratio. Worse, they could adversely impact your nitrogen balance ñ we certainly don’t recommend mixing starch or carb blockers with your protein supplements. In fact, if you’re training seriously, you don’t need starch blockers at all: they are for people with no discipline who can’t stick to a clean diet, and that’s NOT you.

A thermogenic product is used to increase the heat in the body and in turn affect the body’s metabolism and ability to burn fat. Caffeine is the most well known thermogenic. A fat metaboliser is any compound that increases the body’s ability to use fat as a fuel source; it may or may not be a stimulant. Fat burner is a common, non-stimulant fat metaboliser.

It’s a common misconception that women shouldn’t consume protein powder, because theyíll get big and bulky. An increased protein intake (via protein shakes or otherwise) will do wonders for creating a lean, toned and fit figure in conjunction with your training, and you needn’t fear you will get big. To put it simply, it’s not possible for women to bulk up with huge muscles, even by lifting heavy weights, without artificial (and illegal) help, as they don’t have the testosterone levels that men do. An increased protein intake alongside a weight lifting/resistence program will help you build a lean, toned physique. With more muscle, you’ll burn more calories at rest, and more protein in your diet will assist with managing your appetite too.

This comes down to your body type/size/weight, and your activity level – along with your intended goal that you’re aiming for.
For sedentary adults (those that do little or no exercise) the Recommended Dietary Intake (RDI) of 0.8g of protein per kilogram (kg) of body weight is sufficient to maintain muscle mass.

Protein needs increase depending on the duration and intensity of exercise. For example an endurance athlete’s requirements may range from 1.2g to 1.4g per kg of body weight. Very active people, strength athletes and those doing resistance training need approximately 1.7-1.8g of protein per kg of body weight. An 80kg male would require 136 grams (80 x 1.7 = 136) of protein daily to maintain existing muscle and achieve further muscle growth.

WellsPro do not recommend protein intakes of higher than 2g/kg body weight. It’s not so much that intakes above this are dangerous for normal individuals, but rather your body is unable to effectively utilise more than this so you’re wasting your time and money.

Normal dietary protein sources include meats like chicken, fish, eggs, legumes, split pulses and dairy. However, while these sources are important in a healthy balanced diet, most of them come with unwanted extras like saturated fat and sugar. ISO WHEY GOLD provides an easy way to boost your protein intake, providing more of what you need and less of what you don’t. You can tailor ISO WHEY GOLD to suit your own personal requirements ñ a quick lunch with a piece of fruit, the right nutrition for after exercise or a workout, a filling mid afternoon snack, a sustaining breakfast or something that will stave of hunger and cravings when youíre racing out the door.
