What is Pro-Whey?

ProWhey, by Schwartz Laboratories, is a specially-engineered whey protein formula that has been designed to fit the demands of the most advanced athletes, while providing the essential protein needs of anyone. ProWhey is the culmination of protein research and modern processing techniques that allow for the isolation, concentration and the selected modification of various whey proteins.

Why Choose Pro-Whey?

One reason…you want the best!

First, it is important to understand the better a protein is absorbed by the body the higher it’s Biological Value (BV). Take a look at the table below showing the BV of popular types of protein. You will notice the number one spot belongs to whey concentrate protein. That’s what ProWhey Concentrate is made of…100%. For those who want the high quality protein, but do not want to pay for the high cost of “isolates”, ProWhey concentrate delivers an economical alternative to our ProWhey Isolate/Concentrate blended "super-protein".

Why Do I Need Pro-Whey?

Protein is the building block of the entire body. Muscles, tissue (organ and skeletal), hair, nails, etc. are all made up of protein. Your body cannot build or maintain itself if sufficient protein is not available.

Experts estimate that the daily ideal protein intake for active adults is about .9 grams per pound of bodyweight. If your goal is adding muscle and you are working out intensely, the rule of thumb is at least 1 gram per pound of bodyweight up to about 1.5 grams per pound of bodyweight.

By making sure your system has the protein and amino acids it needs, you can speed recovery, build new muscle, reduce workout related injuries and maintain healthy tissues.

How Do I Use Pro-Whey?

ProWhey is the perfect protein supplement and can be added to your diet in any of the following situations:

* To “balance” any meal - For instance, many of us eat cereal for breakfast. Most cereals are primarily carbohydrates. By adding a ProWhey shake, you have suddenly made your breakfast more balanced and complete. (Hint: Try adding a scoop of ProWhey to your favorite hot cereal.)

* Right after workouts, your body goes into a recovery mode in which protein and the associated amino acids are vital.

* In-between meals - ProWhey stabilizes blood sugar levels which reduces cravings, boosts metabolism and maintains energy levels.

* Before you go to sleep - Taking ProWhey before bedtime helps prevent the protein breakdown that naturally occurs when we sleep. If muscle gain and/or recovery is your goal, then this is a crucial time to be sure your body has the protein it needs.

Top Benefits of Pro-Whey

* ProWhey contains BCAA'S (branched chain amino acids), which are an integral part of muscle metabolism and are the first amino acids sacrificed during protein breakdown. The table below shows the typical amino acid profile found in ProWhey.

* ProWhey stabilizes blood sugar levels. This is important to keep you feeling good all day and stops your cravings for food that occur when your blood sugar levels drop. Diets that are too high in carbohydrates cause your blood sugar levels to go through peaks and valleys. You go from feeling a burst of energy and feeling full to those "afternoon lulls" and feeling hungry.

* ProWhey contains special amino acids that can help promote and increase the body's production of glutathione, a natural anti-oxidant that is essential to a healthy immune system.
