Why are proteins so important?

Our body needs proteins to live. Alongside fats and carbohydrates, proteins are among the three essential macronutrients and they perform a variety of important functions in the body. They are components of muscles, organs, skin, and hair, and play a crucial role in hormone and enzyme production. They are composed of various essential amino acids. Some of them are produced by the body itself, while others must be supplied. In total, there are 9 essential amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own and must be obtained through food.

Why do I need proteins for muscle building?

Muscle building without protein does not work. In addition to training, proteins play a significant role in muscle building.Muscles are composed of about 20% protein, so muscles can only be built if the building blocks for them are available. When sufficient muscle stimulus (e.g., strength training) is applied, the body needs proteins to build new muscle fibers. Also during the recovery phase, proteins are essential. During intense training, small injuries occur in the muscle cells, which are repaired by the proteins. To meet your protein needs, we recommend our high-quality protein products!

How many grams of protein do I need?

Depending on age and physical activity, daily protein requirements vary. With a balanced diet, protein needs are easily met. The German Nutrition Society specifies as a guideline 0.8 g of protein per kg of body weight. However, this refers to non-training individuals who merely want to maintain muscles. Intense training results in increased protein requirements to build muscles. The recommended protein intake is then about 1.8 - 2 g per kg of body weight.

Do proteins help with weight loss?

A protein-rich diet boosts fat burning and also keeps you full for a long time. By consuming a protein-rich diet with a reduced carbohydrate content, the blood sugar level is kept constant and cravings are prevented. If sugar from carbohydrates is absent, the body begins to switch to other energy sources. This leads to fat being broken down and simultaneously converted into energy for muscles and organs.

What is Whey Protein?

Whey Protein is English and means whey protein. It is one of the main components of milk and is among the best-known and most popular types of protein. And for good reason, because it is easily digestible and readily available to the body. It shines with an optimal amino acid profile and thus contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscles.

What is the difference between whey concentrate and whey isolate?

The whey isolate differs from the common whey concentrate in its production. The isolate must undergo a special microfiltration until it achieves high purity through targeted isolation. After this process, it contains only very low fat and lactose levels and is characterized by an ideal amino acid profile. Therefore, it is also optimal for people with lactose intolerance.

What is a multi-component protein?

A multi-component protein consists of several protein sources. This way, the benefits of different protein sources are combined. Our 5-component protein mix, for example, consists of high-quality whey protein isolate, whey protein concentrate, soy isolate, egg white, and sodium caseinate. These are digested with a delay, ensuring a particularly long-lasting protein supply.

Animal vs. Plant Proteins. Which is Better?

Animal protein can basically be absorbed better and faster by the body. This ensures optimal regeneration after training. Meat and dairy products also contain slightly more essential amino acids than plant-based proteins. However, you can also easily be supplied with all amino acids with plant-based proteins if you combine them. They also score with lots of fiber and minerals. Animal protein sources, such as meat and cheese, on the other hand, contain many saturated fatty acids and are not health-promoting when consumed excessively. Overall, both types of proteins have advantages and disadvantages. The key to success is a good mix of both protein sources.

What does biological value mean?

Biological value is the measure of how efficiently dietary proteins can be converted into body proteins. In other words, how well the body can utilize protein absorbed from food. This depends on how similar the amino acid profile is to our body's protein. The higher this value, the more valuable the protein. The egg serves as a benchmark, with a biological value of 100. This means the body can convert it into body protein at 100%.

What are amino acids good for?

All proteins are composed of amino acids. They take on important functions in the body and are involved in metabolic processes. Among other things, they form tissues such as organs, muscles, skin, and hair. Many of them can be produced by the body itself, but some must be supplied. In total, there are 9 essential amino acids (EAA) that must be obtained through diet and 11 non-essential amino acids that the body can produce on its own.

In full, this means: Branched Chain Amino Acid, which means branched-chain amino acids. These include the amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine. These amino acids are not metabolized in the liver, meaning they go directly into the muscles during metabolism as building materials or are used for repair purposes. They promote protein synthesis, support fat breakdown, and even improve brain function.

The abbreviation stands for Essential Amino Acids, also essential amino acids. These are the 9 amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own and must be obtained through food. EAAs have a variety of positive properties that benefit muscle growth. They are significantly involved in the building of muscle mass and reduce the risk of unwanted muscle loss. Additionally, EAAs are a true energy supplier that can increase your performance and help reduce fatigue.

Schmeckt mir! Sehr erfrischend, vor allem nach einem anstrengenden Training. Für mich könnts eine Spur weniger süß sein, aber ich geb meistens ohnehin etwas mehr Wasser dazu - das ist das gute, man kann einfach für sich selbst bestimmen, wie man es haben will!

Pink Lemonade

Perfekt für den Sommer, Himbeer-Zitrone geht immer, passt auch gut mit der Orange. Schmeckt eher wie eine Limonade als ein Proteinshake, wie beschrieben. Ist besser für mich, ich kann nicht so gut mit den klassischen Eiweißshakes. Aber diese Konsistenz passt für mich!

Die limited Edition Orangenpunsch find ich echt gut - der Shake schäumt am Anfang viel aber das legt sich schnell und dann ist er auch klar. Hoffe es kommen bald noch mehr Sorten!
