*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Protein supplements are what you need if you are serious about getting as much protein as possible in less time. What for? It�s no secret that those who are into bodybuilding incorporate supplements specialized for muscle growth into their nutrition plan. Bodybuilder or not, everyone may take advantage of supplementation of protein. It�s like eating more foods high in protein minus all the other unwanted substances that come with these foods such as carbohydrates and fats.

Just as the sources of supplements of protein are completely different, not all forms of protein supplement are equal. Walking in to a shop that caters to bodybuilders and the health buff population, someone who is new to the idea of protein supplementation may find it surprising to learn that there is a quite long list of protein supplements out there. Protein powders and pills may come from dairy products like whey or from legumes like soy and pea.

Protein Levels

What you should probably think of first is the protein content that you want your body to get from a supplement. In the old days when extracting and separating protein from the rest of the substances that make up the food source was difficult, people had no choice but to take all these substances even in supplements. However, much has changed since and today you are very likely able to find protein isolates from whey, which consist of up to 90 per cent of protein content, the highest among all protein supplements.

Bioactive Substances

One thing that you should know upon choosing the right protein supplement for you is its formulation. Are you looking for something that has high levels of other bioactive substances such as lipids and starch? Or do you want to avoid them? Whichever is your choice, whey protein has all your concerns taken care of as it comes in different formulations, whey concentrates having considerably low levels of cholesterol, for instance. The good thing is that powders from whey are developed entirely from the dairy product without the addition of synthetic substances.

Biological Value

The initial reason why bodybuilders love whey protein is its biological value, the amount of protein that is ultimately absorbed by the intestinal walls and incorporated to the human body, for example in the muscle bulk that you see. Soy protein is the earliest form of protein supplement but up to now remains less favored largely owing to its low biological value. Whey, being an animal product, is a ready source of protein to the human body.

There are a number of protein supplements in the market today, but whey protein has no doubt been the most popular choice among practitioners of bodybuilding for decades now. Those who opt to take other sources may have deep-rooted moral principles in favor of non-exploitation of animals, vegans for one. That being said, protein powders formulated from whey gives more reasons to consider whey supplementation, not to mention offers more choices to choose from.

Always choose quality whey protein when looking to increase protein intake. Whey isolate is the highest quality you can purchase.
