NZ Whey Protein Isolate+ Vanilla is built around grass-fed New Zealand whey protein isolate, which is there to provide a concentrated source of protein for muscle repair and recovery. Whey isolate is filtered to remove most of the lactose, fat and carbohydrate, so it is usually chosen when you want a lighter protein powder with a high protein yield per serve.
This vanilla version also includes yacon and lucuma for sweetness and flavour, plus ProHydrolase, a digestive enzyme blend added to help break down protein. Research on whey protein consistently links it with muscle protein synthesis after training, especially when total daily protein intake matters. The vanilla powder and monk fruit keep the flavour simple without relying on added sugar.
What is the main protein in NZ Whey Protein Isolate+ Vanilla?
The main ingredient is whey protein isolate from New Zealand milk. It is included to give you a high amount of protein with very little lactose, fat or sugar.
Why does this protein powder include ProHydrolase?
ProHydrolase is a digestive enzyme blend. It is added to help break protein into smaller peptides, which may make the shake feel easier to digest for some people.
What do yacon and lucuma add?
They are used for natural sweetness and flavour. They also help round out the taste so the vanilla is smooth rather than overly sweet.
Love this! Really nice taste, mixes well and I feel full and energised after having it. My new favourite go-to protein!
