Top Secret Nutrition® 100% Whey Protein contains all of the essential amino acids required in the daily diet. It has the ideal combination of amino acids to improve body composition and enhance athletic performance.
Top Secret Nutrition® 100% Whey Protein is a rich source of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs). BCAAs are essential for athletes, due to their ability to metabolize directly into the muscle tissue and be utilized during the initial periods of exercise and resistance training.
Top Secret Nutrition® 100% Whey Protein provides the body with over 5.7 grams of BCAAs to replenish depleted levels, and accelerate the repair and rebuilding of lean muscle tissue.
Top Secret Nutrition® 100% Whey Protein is an excellent source of the essential amino acid, leucine. Leucine is important for athletes as it plays a key role in promoting muscle protein synthesis and muscle growth.
What Is AstraGin™?
AstraGin™ is a proprietary all natural plant derived compound extracted from highly fractionated Panax notoginseng and Astragalus membranaceus using a proprietary pharmaceutical extraction and processing technology. AstraGin™ is the first and only natural compound that has been demonstrated in vitro, in vivo, and in human studies to significantly promote and improve the absorption ofamino acids, glucose, and vitamins at the cellular level, i.e., greater amount of these nutrients are transported from the blood stream into cells, rather than floating in blood stream, for improved bioavailability.
How AstraGin™ WorksThe basic mode of action for AstraGin™ is to increase the absorption of amino acids, glucose, and vitamins through the regulation and paralleled alteration on both the protein and mRNA expression levels of the nutrient transporter genes.The Specific Health Benefits of AstraGin™In vitro, in vivo, and human studies have demonstrated that AstraGin™ can significantly increase (up-regulate) or decrease (down-regulate) the following specific bio markers:- Increases the steady-state absorption rate of amino acids such as Arginine and Tryptophan by 66.7% and 52.5%*
- Increases vitamin absorption by 50% as studied with Folic Acid*
- Increases intestinal glucose absorption by 57% that is converted to glycogen in muscle cells*
- Increases ATP production by 18%*
- Helps support healthy blood glucose and insulin levels*
- Increase glycogen in muscle cells (24 hours after strenuous exercise) by 60%*

Whey Protein
Whey Protein- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Comments about Top Secret Nutrition® 100% Whey Protein - Chocolate Ice Cream:
After having tried many different proteins on the market, TSN's 100% Whey is my "go-to" protein (especially before or after training). Not only does it taste great, but the mixability is amazing! Normally, I mix my proteins in a blender with ice and unsweetened almond milk so they come out smooth and thick. Believe it or not, all you need is water and a shaker bottle. No lumps or clumps and a really thick shake. It is also low in fat/carbs and high in protein so you can make a shake or use it to make other "guilt-free" treats with. Love it!
