The most digestible source of whey protein developed for human consumption.
A hydrolyzed whey is partially digested to make them more accessible for human
digestion. The protein molecules are split into smaller groups called peptides.
The amino acids are called peptide bonded. Described as a highly purified protein
enzymatically hydrolysated to form whey peptides. The benefits of whey protein
isolate are combined with the hydrolysated whey peptides extremely solubility
and nutrition benefits.
Hydrolyzed
whey protein can be processed to different degrees of quality. ProteinFactory.comŽ
offers various hydrolyzed proteins to choose from.
The
hydrolyzed whey 520 possess the highest AN/TN manufactured today. Thus the hydro
520 contains the greatest amount of peptides of any powder. The product also
possess the lowest molecular weight average of any protein, with a MW of 520
Daltons. The product is a fine cream powder. Taste is very bitter due to the
high degree of hydrolysis.

Bodybuilding
and Athletic Supplementation Description
The hydrolyzed 520 has the greatest potential to produce the best results for
lean muscle mass. The small di and tri peptides produce the most dramatic pharmaceutical
effects. The hydro 520 does not mix well with a spoon. A blender must be used
for mixing. It has an extremely bad taste...One must NOT think that they can
drink it straight. ProteinFactory.comŽis the ONLY company to commercially market
the Hydro 520 for anabolic use. The manufacturer of the Hydro 520 has confirmed
this. If one chooses to use the hydrolyzed 520 whey protein in a custom protein
mix, try to keep the percentage 25% or lower.
How
to use the hydrolyzed whey 520 in your muscle-building arsenal.
If you want results from whey protein, if you are convinced, like we are, that
whey peptides are absorbed much greater than regular whole food then you will
try to fit the hydrolyzed 520 into your supplement arsenal. The hydrolyzed
520 is one of the most unique whey proteins in the bodybuilding market. I say
this because it is an extremely rare product. The larger supplement companies
are not going to use the hydro 520 because they sell to the mass market of bodybuilders.
i.e. the general public who most of the time judges protein powders on taste
only. How many times have you seen Designer Protein advertise how they
won some gold medal taste award and how large manufacteurers brag they win blind
taste tests. Hydrolyzed 520 is a god awful tasting product. I remember
my first experience with the "520" in that I dry heaved over my kitchen sink.
I took a big gulp and "Blahhh". I was like, "this is hydrolyzed
whey protein.,how come this container on protein powder that claims to contain
whey peptides tastes like a milk shake then". I knew I had been had. Thus
over the next few weeks I began to experiment with ways to drink some of the
"520". I found that by combining the 520 1 to 1 tablespoons with a regular
whey protein I was able to tolerate the product.
Why
is"520" is so special?
Hydrolzed 520 is an awesome product. Drinking the powder the
peptides are actually by-passing the stomach and are being absorbed right through
the small intestine and into the blood stream. Up to 80% of whey peptides can
pass quickly through the stomach intact to be absorbed by the lower intestines.
Small di-and tri-peptides are also absorbed faster than free-form amino
acids. Regular whey protein has to be broken down into these peptides
compared to the 520 which is already in a partial digestive state. What
does this mean for muscle growth? The faster amino acids are absorbed,
the faster protein synthesis can take place and an positive nitrogen state develops
creating an anabolic condition.
How
to use the 520
Buy the "520" separately, get 1 or 2 pound plain unflavored and unsweetened.
If you don't have regular whey isolate or concentrate get some then add 1 to
2 tablespoons to your protein drink.
