But what is whey, and why is it so valued as the core foundation of just about every serious performance nutrition program. Whey is a thin, watery portion of milk chocked full of high-grade protein that’s separated during cheese production. It is extracted through a two-step process. The type of extraction conducted to separate whey from milk is what really determines the quality of whey protein. It’s this exact process that also sets ISOFLEX protein powder apart from many of the other protein powders on the market.
ISOFLEX protein powder is extracted through Micro filtration; this is a filtration process that removes the larger, less absorbable protein molecules while filtering out fat, lactose and ash. The membranes used for this process are extremely fine and have the ability to remove even more lactose, ash and fat than the process of ultra-filtration which is used for lower quality whey protein products. The holy grail of high-end Whey Isolate Protein is Cross-Flow Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate. Using this sophisticated process ALLMAX is able to produce ISOFLEX, a superior Ultra-Pure Protein that maintains an optimal macronutrutient ratio, yielding 27 g Protein, 0.5 g Carbohydrate and 0.2 Fat.
ISOFLEX protein powder is a whey protein isolate meaning it contains the highest concentration of protein; about 90% concentration of protein due to the Proprietary CTP™ Cross-Flow Microfiltration Process. ISOFLEX is also an instantized protein powder; it mixes extremely easily and tastes incredible in liquid when combined with a spoon or shaker cup.
ISOFLEX Whey Isolate Protein Matrix is made exclusively from 100% Whey Isolate – the purest, most highly bioactive protein available. No Whey Concentrate, Calcium Casienate, Sodium Casienate or Egg Proteins are ever used. Non-Whey Isolate Proteins tend to be higher in fat, lactose and have far less bioactive of the bioactive components found in our Whey Isolate. In addition, ISOFLEX is fortified with WPI 97 [Whey Protein Isolate 97] and Synermune™ Colostrum to further enhance both the protein yield and the immune enhancing ability of Whey Isolate Protein.
ISOFLEX protein powder is extracted through CTP™ (Cold Temperature Process) Microfiltration; this is a Cross-Flow Microfiltration process that removes the larger, less absorbable protein molecules while filtering out fat, lactose and ash normally present in whey concentrates and other lower quality protein powders. The filtration membranes used for this process are extraordinarily fine and have the ability to remove even more lactose, ash and fat than the process of ultra-filtration which is used for lower quality whey protein products. The absolute gold-standard in Whey Isolate Protein is Cross-Flow Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate. Using this sophisticated process ALLMAX is able to produce ISOFLEX, a superior Ultra-Pure Protein that maintains an optimal macronutrutient ratio, yielding 27 g Protein, 1 g Carbohydrate and between 0.2 g and 0.5 g Fat (variation dependant on flavor).
ALLMAX didn’t stop at the best Whey Isolate, they made it even better with a truly unique method of processing called CTP™, or Cold Temperature Process. ALLMAX employs a protein exaction technology that allows us to not only achieve the impressive protein yields, but also maintain the fragile but extremely important bioactive major protein fractions (functions listed below). Typically, harsh chemicals or denaturing heat had been used in normal processing, but understanding the nature of protein and the high expectations of our customers – ALLMAX opted for our own process that results in the ideal protein, designed for the highest performance.
Whey protein also contains a high concentration of Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) which help to prevent muscle breakdown during exercise. ISOFLEX protein powder contains optimal levels of BCAAs and essential amino acids to provide the nutrition you need to reach your goals. ISOFLEX contains 19 amino acids, including 8 Essential Amino Acids and 3 Branch Chain Amino Acids. The following three branched chain amino acids are essential amino acids that have been found to enhance performance:
a) Leucine - helps with the regulation of blood sugar levels and promotes the growth of muscle tissue. ISOFLEX includes Leucine for its ability to accelerate protein synthesis and promotion of efficient recovery after intense training sessions.
b) Isoleucine – helps with blood clot formation. ISOFLEX includes isoleucine for its ability to promote muscle recovery after workouts.
c) Valine – is needed for muscle metabolism, repair and growth of muscle tissue. ISOFLEX includes valine for its ability to accelerate recovery after intense workouts.
Major Protein Fractions
ISOFLEX is an ultra-pure protein as indicated by these extraordinary Bioactive Full-Spectrum Whey Isolate Macrofractions:
57% Beta-Lactoglobulin - assists the body in absorbing fat-soluble vitamins and can help prevent muscle breakdown.
18% Alpha-Lactalbumin - high in tryptophan, a natural relaxant which can help to reduce stress, improve the mood and increase serotonin levels.
17.5% Glycomacropeptide– contain high amount of BCAAs and can help stimulate body to release cholecystokinin (CCK) after eating to signify satiety (the feeling of being full) and help with weight loss.
3.0% Immungoglobulin – responsible for producing antibodies to fight against pathogens. They bind to toxins to prevent infections and also enhance the immune system.
3.0% BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin) – provides essential amino acids.
2.0% EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) – increases the intake of nutrients and growth factors by the cells. It is a powerful anabolic protein molecule.
1.0% IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor) – this is a hormone released by the growth hormone which can promote growth and support lean muscle mass.
0.2% Lactoferrin – is an iron-binding protein which helps with iron transport throughout the body. It is also a powerful antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal glycoprotein.
Countless studies conducted on whey protein have proven that Whey Protein Isolate is the pinnacle type of protein to build muscle, provide strength for training and recovery from exercise.
Anyone who is training intensely and who truly wants to reach their goals should be supplementing with Whey Protein Isolate. For best results it should be a high quality Whey Protein Isolate such as ISOFLEX protein powder.
