FULL SPECTRUM PROTEIN MIX

- Supports Muscle Recovery and Growth
- Great source of Essential of Essential Amino Acids and BCAA
GNC Pro Performance Whey Protein Complex combines protein from whey, soy, caseinate and egg to provide you with a full spectrum of amino acids.
Protein serves as a dietary source of amino acids. The body needs amino acids to build the various proteins used in the growth, repair and maintenance of body tissues such as skin, bones and muscles. More specifically, it supplies branched chain amino acids (BCAA) to athletes. BCAA are essential amino acids, which are part of muscle protein. They may preserve muscle glycogen stores and help reduce the amount of protein breakdown during exercise.
PROTEIN CONSUMPTION
Depending on your athletic goals, your protein requirements can vary. serious athletes should consume approximately one gram of protein per pound of body weight. This should be spread over four to six small meals. Inadequate protein in your diet can limit muscle protein synthesis which can compromise your athletic goals. The amino acids from whye protein move quickly through the digestive system. The consumption of these protein will result in a rapid rise in blood amino acids and stimulate protein synthesis.
Whey Protein Complex can be taken immediately before and/or after your workout to support muscle protein synthesis.
Typical Amino Acid Profile:
STACK WITH: GNC Pro Performance® RapidDrive® Arginine 5000™ and Creatine Monohydrate 5000.

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 GNC Pro Performance® Whey Protein Complex - Chocolate:
I like this product so much that im even afraid to try a different flavor, i did try the 100% whey protein one and even though it was not bad it did taste a little chalky, so ive just stuck to this one. I prepare it before i leave to the gym and leave it in the freezer and by the time i come back its almost like a slushy texture and it taste even better! Oh and supper important its low in cal and carbs.
