This PROTEIN COFFEE formula is a sugar added, high-quality whey protein co­ffee with caff­eine (decaff­einated and no extra sugar containing versions are also available)! It provides an e­ffective 27 g dose of whey protein with 100 mg of caff­eine combining the two popular sports supplement ingredients. Whey protein from milk is a so-called complete protein, because it provides the body with all necessary amino acids, including the 9 amino acids (i.e. Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Valine) that are considered essential for life, because the body cannot synthesize them. Determination of the nutritional e‑fficiency of protein in the diet is in most cases based on estimating the extent to which dietary protein nitrogen is absorbed and retained by the body and is able to balance daily nitrogen losses. Net Protein Utilisation (NPU) is the percentage of ingested nitrogen that is retained in the body, and the Biological Value (BV) gives the percentage of absorbed nitrogen that is retained. Biological Value is the product of NPU and digestibility. Whey protein has good digestibility and amino acid composition, thus it’s Biological Value is great compared to other dietary protein sources like meat, fish, eggs or soy. Dietary proteins are the source of nitrogen and indispensable amino acids, which the body requires for tissue growth and maintenance.
Therefore, PROTEIN COFFEE’s protein contributes to the maintenance and growth of muscle mass and also to the maintenance of normal bones*.
PROTEIN COFFEE provides caff­eine from co­ffee and from added pure ca­ffeine.
