Product Description
VVRS Milk Protein Concentrate is a concentrated protein preparation obtained through the ultrafiltration of fresh, pasteurized liquid skim milk which retains the proteins in their natural state and the same ratio between the proteins as for liquid milk. It is performed at low temperatures to prevent denaturing. These processes reduce the milk to just casein and whey protein fractions, giving MPC its unique composition.
Product Highlights
Low heat denaturation
Low lactose content
High nutritional value
High solubility
No additives
Natural amino acid profile
MPC is comprised of both whey protein and casein. Whey protein is absorbed very quickly by the body which is ideal for when you need it instantly such as after exercise. Casein is at the other end of the spectrum and absorbs very slowly, making it perfect for before bed. You could say that Milk Protein Concentrate combines the best of both worlds as it is comprised of both these types of protein. This makes it an ideal choice for between meals when you want something that absorbs slower than whey, but faster than casein.
MPC also makes an ideal pre-bed protein supplement (although calcium caseinate would be the preferred choice) due to the fact that there is a higher percentage of casein fractions than whey fractions. This helps prevent catabolism (muscle loss) during sleep, when the body is normally being starved of protein.
MPC is naturally high in Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) and has an excellent overall amino acid profile. Amino Acids have a wide range of benefits ranging from building muscle to improving recovery after exercise.
