Health benefits at a glance: 

100% Whey Gold Standard from Optimum Nutrition is the world’s best-selling whey protein powder and can deliver an optimal pre- and post-workout meal to help repair muscle fibers and support muscle growth. 

Each serving delivers 24 grams of protein primarily from whey protein isolate and offers 5,5 g of naturally occurring BCAAs. 

Moreover, this whey protein serving comes with a delicious strawberry flavor and contains low levels of sugar and fat and less than 120 calories (1,4 g of fat, 0,7 g of sugars, and 1,3 g of carbohydrates). 

Why it works: 

After training, your body uses protein to help repair and rebuild muscle fibers. It’s also important to maintain muscle mass. Whey protein delivers an abundance of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), essential nutrients that reduce muscle breakdown and stimulate the building of protein in muscle. (1)

Quality protein such as whey protein is not just for athletes seeking to repair and build muscles. Maintaining healthy muscle mass becomes more challenging with aging, and whey supplementation has been shown to help prevent the loss of muscles in aging individuals. (2-4) 

Moreover, whey is also a great source of protein for the immune system as it contains all the amino acids needed for healthy body functions. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and they are used by the immune system during infection and illness to help us recover. 

Enjoy ON 100% Whey Gold Standard first thing in the morning and/or during the 30 minutes before or after a training session. 

The science behind the product: 

Whey protein has a unique amino acid profile with a very high nutritional value, as it contains all 20 amino acids in the right proportion needed. 

Whey protein isolate 

With the use of sophisticated filtering technologies ON 100% Whey Gold Standard has had excess carbohydrates, fat, and lactose ‘isolated’ out. 

That leaves a high-quality whey protein powder with no wasted calories to build and maintain lean muscle mass. 

Branched-chain amino acids 

BCAAs are a group of three essential amino acids (L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine), and their main benefit is the ability to boost muscle growth. 

Research shows that BCAAs help to both maintain and build muscle strength and endurance, support physical performance, and promote muscle recovery. (5,6)

ON 100% Whey Gold Standard offers 5,5 g of naturally occurring BCAAs. 

L-glutamine and l-glutamic acid 

L-glutamine (also called glutamine) is derived from L-glutamic acid, which is a non-essential amino acid abundant in your muscles. 

The levels of glutamine are reduced after intense exercise, and glutamine supplementation encourages recovery after a workout and helps inhibit protein breakdown in muscle tissue. (7-10) 

Additionally, supplementing with glutamine has been shown to have a beneficial effect on immune function after strenuous exercise. (11) 

ON 100% Whey Gold Standard provides 4 grams of glutamine and glutamic acid.
