fulfil their protein needs. Just drinking a soup full of split peas is not enough, one needs to ensure that amount of proteins consumed is adequate for the body needs. Since pea proteins offer so many advantages, it’s popularity is growing in leaps and bounds.

Peas are a rich source of high quality proteins. According to a study conducted in this field, the quality of proteins of a protein product is very much similar to soy and eggs and are considered as complete sources. Complete protein offers all amino acids that are necessary for the body and including the amino acids that our bodies are unable to make. The majority of plant proteins have limited amino acids. Pea protein is considered as rich in arginine, which is a prominent amino acid that is needed by the body for muscle building.

If you suffer from a dairy or gluten allergy, pea protein is an excellent option. Pea protein can also be used in recipes for cookies, cupcakes, ravioli and waffles. Pea isolates and concentrates can be used without compromising the texture or flavor. If a person is allergic to soy or milk, then pea protein is the great alternative. Pea proteins are sourced from yellow peas or Pisum Sativum, and offers immense benefits. Many pea protein powder brands come unflavored but a tinge of pea taste can be experienced. In order to make this option more palatable, these days, many companies have come up with unique flavours. One of the major flavours available in this product is vanilla which can be easily added to fruit and vegetable recipes.

Whey Protein Powder

Another popular supplement available is whey protein which is derived from milk. If you have no intolerance to dairy or no dietary restrictions that include animal products, whey protein is an excellent option. As a major component of your entire fitness plan, muscle mass can be added by consuming whey protein. The time when this protein is consumed can have a great impact of muscle building and muscle recovery after workout regimen. As it happens with any nutritional supplement, it is better to seek the advice of a sports nutritionist or a dietician before you fortify your daily diet with whey proteins. It is significant to note that two proteins are found in the milk of cows. They are casein and why. Highest BV or biological value is imparted by whey in comparison to any other food protein as found in the studies conducted in this field. It can be safely deduced that whey is used by our bodies in a much efficient manner in comparison to other proteins. It is a fast acting protein, which can be digested and absorbed in a slow but steady manner, When it comes to building muscles, both proteins should be consumed in a manner that is perfect as its consumption is timed.

If whey protein is consumed just before going to sleep, it helps the body to gain a lot of advantages from the amino acids contained in it. Whey protein can efficiently supplement muscle tissue with essential amino acids like isoleucine, leucine and valine. When our body is resting, our body gets repaired at a faster rate and muscle tissue also gets built at a faster pace. Thus, when a person consumes whey proteins at night, the worn out and tired muscles get repaid faster with amino acids.

If you are looking forward to gaining lean muscles and losing weight, whey protein is one of the best options you may have. Although, making a choice becomes quite challenging these days with so many options available in the market, whey protein is still one of the highly saleable products. These protein supplements are available in liquid forms, powdered forms, bars and more. One must decide to consume these protein supplements on the basis of fitness goals you have set for yourself.
