You may or may not be aware, but not all protein powders are suitable for all applications. For example, the finest meal replacement powder, Thorne Mediclear SGS, is not the best for muscle mass gain. I can’t say enough good things about it; it’s also the best thing for pregnant women, but I digress. I have a new protein for all of you “I want more muscle” individuals because I work with a lot of athletes and others who want to gain muscle. Superior Complete Whey for Muscle Building is what I’m calling it.

Why is this one so effective for muscle building? First, there’s whey, which has a high leucine content, digests smoothly, and is familiar to most individuals. Its digestion also provides a more time-released type of leucine administration. However, it contains Amino Acids, which the body requires to flourish. I often talk about how your body doesn’t require protein, but rather amino acids, and this one is like whey meets the best amino acid stack you’ll discover. Leucine is required for the production of muscle protein.

Isoleucine is used to force substances into cells in the same way as insulin does, but without the problems associated with insulin spikes. Histidine is beneficial for inflammation and healing, particularly in the intestines. Gluconeogenesis requires a lot of alanine and glycine. As a result, this is the greatest item for folks who are undertaking keto or intermittent fasting (take it at night a little before bed). Tryptophan to aid in the conversion of 5HTP to serotonin for mood and brain health. It contains all 9 essential amino acids, ensuring that your body receives everything it requires for growth and repair.

So, Throne Mediclear SGS is the greatest meal replacement, while Superior Complete Whey is the best for muscle building.
