What’s the difference between High Protein and Whey Protein?Updated 3 days ago
Answer:
The main difference is the types of protein used in the two different formulas. These have different rates of absorption based on the types of protein used.
100% Whey is a combination of isolate and concentrate so is quite a fast-digesting matrix
High Protein is a combination of other forms of protein so has a generally slower matrix
The speed of absorption of different proteins from fastest to slowest are:
- Whey Isolate
- Whey Concentrate
- Milk Protein
- Casein Protein
Musashi High Protein is built as a multi-source blend (whey + milk protein + pea protein) so you get a fast amino-acid spike and a slower release—great for between meals and overnight recovery.
100% Whey is a slightly more premium mix, great for immediately post exercise for fast absorption.
