DY Nutrition Shadowhey Concentrate Whey Protein

Shadowhey Protein Concentrate is designed for physically active individuals and athletes who want to extend recovery times between workouts while enhancing muscle growth. Shadowhey is naturally rich in BCAAs and glutamine, is quickly digested, and is perfect for post-workout or as a convenient protein source throughout the day between meals.

How it works: Whey protein concentrate is a byproduct of cheese, making it a highly bioavailable substance that the body can quickly absorb after physical activity to repair muscle tissue and build new tissue. Studies have consistently shown that supplementation with whey protein leads to improvements in muscle mass development and recovery.

BCAAs, or branched-chain amino acids (L-Isoleucine, L-Leucine, and L-Valine), contribute to muscle mass development, reduce muscle soreness and fatigue after exercise, and prevent catabolism – muscle loss when the body starts using muscle as an energy source.

L-Isoleucine is an essential amino acid that acts as a catalyst for protein synthesis. It can stimulate anabolic processes throughout the body and support the development of specific hormones such as growth hormone or testosterone.

L-Leucine is an essential amino acid typically found in certain foods like eggs, fish, and chicken. L-Leucine can increase the production of growth hormones while also helping to enhance physical endurance.

L-Valine is an essential amino acid that serves as an energy reserve for human cells. A deficiency of L-Valine in the diet can lead to a deficit in muscle tissue growth even after exercise.
