Question about types of whey...

[PinkPanther]

Can someone please explain to me what the difference between Isolate and Concentrate whey is? I tried to do a search on here, but had no luck...

Thanks so much!! Karma will be given for info

Usually there is no difference between the protein QUALITY of an isolate or concentrate. Let's take Allthewhey.com for example. Their concentrate is the same exact protein quality as the isolate, but has 2 grams or so of carbs, and 2 grams or so of fat per serving, whereas the isolate has 0.

Hope that helped!!

usually what i understand is protein isolate is a little higher quality than concentrate although many supplement companies don't put the same shit in the bottle thats on the label so beware. However, i do know for a fact that you need many different varieties of protein, soy to whey.

Thanks Guys!

I just wanted to make sure there wasn't a big difference.

I think the main difference is that isolate has most of the lactose removed.
