HYDRO
520
Hydrolyzed
Whey Protein
Scientific Description
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. The
Protein Factory will offer 2 different hydrolyzed whey proteins to
choose from.
Hydrolyzed
Whey 520
Scientific Description
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.
Protein

Ash 4.9%
Moisture 3.2%
Fat 2.3%
Amino Nitrogen over Total Nitrogen 28%
Molecular weight average 520 daltons
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 pharmeuctical 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. The
Protein Factory is 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 Labrada
brags 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.
