A pharmacist who turned nutritionalist here in Holland sells me whey hydrolyzed. He says that whey hydrolyzed breaks down into amino acids faster than any other whey protein. It tastes a lit bitter though. I also get a 1:1:1 mix from his company of whey isolate/calcium caseinate/soy protein isolate...fast acting/middle long/very long.

He reckons BCAA's are a waste of money (though he does sell it 2:1:1) as you get all of them from your food and protein shakes. It's all without artificial flavours and sweetners. I like to switch the composition of my shakes depending on what I'm doing. Resistance training, cardio or just heavy physical labour. The 1:1:1 mix is perfect before going to bed as it will work through the night. I also buy individual protein powders from his company and he always answers my questions.

And believe me, a pharmacist specialized in nutrition knows.
