What is Fast Protein?

Fast Protein is a fast-digesting protein, and is a protein that is typically digested within 1-2 hours. That is why whey protein powder is an excellent choice for post-work. 

Fast Protein is also a complete protein - a food source of protein that contains each of the nine essential amino acids. Our bodies can't produce them on their own and we must get them from the food we eat. It's these essential amino acids that differentiate complete proteins from incomplete proteins. 

One scoop of whey protein powder of Fast Protein has 5.5 grams of branch chain amino acids (BCAAs) and 10.9 grams of Essential Amino Acids (EAAs). Whey protein is a complete protein so is good for you. With ever-changing diets and eating habits and debates over red meats, chicken hormones, etc, is important to consider alternative sources of complete proteins such as whey protein powder.
