Does PeptoPro® work better than other hydrolysed proteins?
Yes, for several reasons. First, the protein quality (amino acid profile and digestibility) of casein is better than that of most other protein sources, including soy, wheat, corn or gelatin. This is an important factor in stimulating muscle protein synthesis, which depends on supply of all 20 amino acids. Second, in contrast to many other protein hydrolysates, PeptoPro® is extensively hydrolysed. It therefore contains mainly very small peptides (di- and tripeptides) that are absorbed without energy loss as they do not require additional digestion. Third, PeptoPro® is generated by use of a unique debittering enzyme, resulting in a less bitter taste that other protein hydrolysates. And fourth, there is a growing body of scientific evidence proving the efficacy of PeptoPro® in humans, which is an increasingly strict regulatory requirement for making claims about products.
