PURE-TEIN Whey Protein

New & Improved!

PURE-TEIN Whey Protein

We have improved the mix-ability and taste of our Pure-Tein Whey Protein.

Beginning in 2010 expect a new and improved formula:

• Microfiltered and Ion-Exchanged
• From cows not treated with rBGH
• Free of added sugar or artificial sweeteners
• Low sodium, low cholesterol and low fat
• Contains Branched Chain Amino Acids and L-glutamine

About whey:

Whey is a natural, low-sugar and low-fat source of a complete protein. Able to be used in many applications (water, juice, smoothies, pudding, yogurt, baked goods, to name a few), whey protein powder offers an easy way to gain the benefits associated with whey. Whey has been shown to improve satiety, lean muscle mass, immune health and weight management.

Where is the whey sourced from?

The whey is still sourced from milk from cows not given Bovine Growth Hormone. All of our whey continues to come from New Zealand dairy farms.

Why do you have both isolate and concentrate whey?

Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) is just the pure whey protein fraction--without carbohydrates or fat, so it offers more protein per ounce. Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC) is mostly protein but also contains some carbohydrate and fat. Our product is a mix of WPI and WPC, which lends a full spectrum of benefits to the end consumer.

What are the sources of the ingredients?

Is the serving size the same?

Yes, the serving size is still 21.5 grams per scoop. We have changed the scoop color to better differentiate the new formula versus the former one.

How does the amino acid profile differ from the old formula to the new one?

We’re happy to announce our new formula provides more amino acids than the previous one:

What are the temperatures used in whey processing?

Products are manufactured at low temperatures where possible. Specific temperatures used during manufacture are proprietary; our supplier is unable to advise maximum temperatures used.
