Choosing the Right Protein

Whey, isolate, beef or vegan: which protein suits your goal, diet and digestion.

Protein

Choosing the right protein starts with your diet and your stomach, then your goal. Whey suits most people who train. Beef protein isolate suits you if dairy upsets you. Plant protein suits you if you eat no animal products or have a milk allergy.

These guides compare the main types side by side on protein per scoop, leucine, digestion, taste, calories and value, using the figures on our own labels rather than marketing claims.

Fuel Sync makes three proteins: whey protein with 22 g of protein per scoop in ten flavours, beef protein isolate with 26 g per scoop and 0 g of fat and carbs, and vegan protein made from pea and yeast.

Whey isolate vs concentrate

Whey isolate and concentrate support muscle growth equally well. Isolate has a little more protein and less lactose, fat and carbs, and costs more. Who really needs isolate, why the milk you mix with matters more for lactose, and how to read the label.
