What is the difference between whey protein concentrate and isolate?
Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) is the purest and most concentrated form of whey protein currently available. It contains 90% or more protein and very little to no lactose and fat. WPI is also around twice the price of Whey Protein Concentrate and is only suited to athletes who are counting their grams of fat or are lactose intolerant. Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC) has anywhere between 75% and 82% protein depending upon which product you choose. As the protein level in whey protein concentrate decreases the amounts of fat and/or lactose usually increase. A good quality WPC is the perfect choice for 90% of our customers as it offers excellent low prices and a high quality protein source.
