What is organic whey protein concentrate and why should I consider adding it to my diet?

 

Choose organic whey protein from grass fed cows

Choose organic whey protein from grass fed cows

Whey protein concentrate is the best whey protein powder because it contains all of the nutrients that were present in the fresh whey.  Nothing has been stripped away.  The concentrate form is most readily utilized by your body.  Choose whey protein concentrate vs isolate for the best quality and most accessible nutrition.  Whey is the liquid by-product of the cheese-making process.  When the water is removed from this whey, the resulting powder is the concentrated form of whey protein.

Choose organic grass fed whey protein concentrate.  It is made from milk that is obtained from cows that are grass fed, hormone-free, pesticide-free, and GMO-free.  Remeber: the quality of the milk depends on the quality of the food the cows eat and the quality of the care they receive!

High Fiber Cookie Recipe

Posted on May 15, 2013 by admin

Coconut meat is one of the highest natural sources of non-digestible dietary fiber.  It is also a good source of protein.  This snacking cookie is a good source of both fiber and protein.  Two of these high fiber cookies with a cup of your favorite hot beverage will calm those mid afternoon hunger pangs.  They are not overly sweet.  Their flavor and texture remind me of “tea biscuits” one might find at an afternoon tea in Britain.  The combination of fat, fiber, and protein will keep you satisfied ‘til dinnertime.

High Fiber Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Choose organic ingredients wherever possible.

Preheat oven to 375* F

 

1 cup coconut flour

1 ½ cups shredded unsweetened coconut

1 scoop Action Whey protein powder

¼ tsp. stevia powder

¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

 

½ cup melted organic extra virgin coconut oil

½ cup sugar

½ tsp vanilla

½ tsp. salt

4 eggs, beaten

Combine the 1st four ingredients.  [Note: if you use stevia powder add it to the dry ingredients.  If you use liquid stevia add it to the wet ingredients.]

Combine the oil, sugar, vanilla and salt and add this mixture to the dry ingredients.

Add the beaten eggs and stir all together.  With your hands, work the dough into a large ball.

Roll dough into 1 ½ “ balls and flatten onto parchment lined cookie sheet.  Or roll dough out and cut into squares.  The shape of the cookies will not change during the baking process.

Bake for 14 minutes

Makes 24 cookies

Fiber is essential to the health of your digestive system.  And if you are concerned about controlling your weight, non-digestible fiber is one of your best friends.  It absorbs water, which helps to fill your stomach and satisfy your appetite, and then it acts like a broom to sweep out the contents of your intestines.  It is important to drink adequate amounts of water along with a high fiber diet.

Two cookies contain 4.5 grams of fiber and 5 grams of protein.  These cookies are gluten-free.

Pina Colada Smoothie

Posted on May 14, 2013 by admin

If you like pina colada, you’ll love this pineapple coconut smoothie.  For best results chill the ingredients [except the coconut oil] before proceeding.

¼ cup crushed unsweetened organic pineapple (chilled)

¼ cup organic coconut milk (chilled)

¼ cup organic yogurt

1 scoop vanilla Action Whey protein powder

crushed ice – optional

2 T. melted organic extra virgin coconut oil

 

Place the first 4 ingredients in the blender and blend until smooth.   If you want a colder drink add a little crushed ice.

With the blender running, slowly add the coconut oil.  Serves one.  Enjoy!

Notes:

  1. If you are not already regularly consuming coconut oil the 2 T. may be a little too much.  Try starting with 1 T.  If your system is not used to coconut oil it might cause some digestive disturbances.  You can gradually increase the amount over time as your body gets used to it.
  2. Chill the ingredients before making the smoothie or add a little crushed ice for a refreshing cold drink.
  3. If you like a more distinct coconut flavor add a little coconut flavoring.
  4. Garnish with a wedge of pineapple.

 

Coconut oil melts at 76* F, so if you live in a temperate climate zone it is probably a solid at room temperature.  It will melt quickly if you place the desired amount in a small heat-proof bowl set in a pan of hot water.

Coconut oil is a stable fat and can be stored at room temperature.

Action Whey For Weight Loss

Posted on October 8, 2011 by admin

Organic whey protein can help you succeed with your weight loss plan.  Action Whey is an organic whey protein concentrate that can help you lose weight.

Click here for a special pricing on Action Whey.

When you enhance your diet with whey protein, weight loss can be one of several benefits.  Many weight loss plans rely on the use of protein shakes to provide a low fat, low sugar source of protein. Unfortunately, most of these shakes contain cheap sources of damaged proteins that do not contribute positively to your over-all health.  Even worse, many of them use artificial sweeteners or hidden sources of added sugar.  Before you buy whey protein, check the list of ingredients!  Choose only the best.

How can Action Whey™ enhance your weight management program?

* Suppresses Appetite: When you aren’t battling hunger pangs it is a lot easier to stay on your plan.  Action Whey™ is rich in an amino acid called Glycomacropeptide (GMP) which has been shown to stimulate intestinal hormones that tell your brain you are full.   This built-in weight management benefit is not found in other protein sources. This advantage, plus the great taste of Action Whey™, gives you a sense of satisfaction that helps to curb your desire for sweets.

* Boosts Metabolism & Lean Muscle: Lean muscle burns fat for fuel.  Therefore, an increase in lean muscle will help to increase your metabolism and help you burn fat. Action Whey™ is loaded with powerful muscle building nutrients. These nutrients promote the growth of lean muscle and help to decrease body fat safely and naturally without the use of dangerous stimulants.

* Preserves Muscle: Action Whey’s™ amino acid profile is almost identical to that of skeletal muscle. Specific amino acids like Cysteine and Glutamine are critical to preserving muscle mass, especially during exercise and weight loss programs. Preserving muscle will help maintain metabolism and benefit your overall health and appearance.

* Low Glycemic: Studies have shown that lowering the glycemic index and load of the first meal will result in decreased food consumption in the next meal.  Try  a delicious fruit smoothie for breakfast and get your day off to a great start.

Best Whey Protein Powder For Women

Posted on August 16, 2011 by admin

action whey 1 containerWomen, are you thinking about including whey protein in your diet but wondering which is the best whey protein powder for women?  Maybe you think, given all the hype you’ve been reading, that whey protein is just for bodybuilding.  Not so, but I can understand how you might have come to that belief.  It does seem that most of the sales pitches focus on building muscles.  But we all need a certain amount of protein in our diet!  So, when you buy whey protein, what should you look for?

Click here for a great buy on organic whey protein!

I started taking whey protein at the suggestion of my doctor because my blood tests indicated I was low in protein.  I initially purchased the brand carried by my local store, but gradually started doing a little research on my own to find out what qualities I should be looking for when I buy whey protein.

But first  .  .  . why organic whey protein powder?

If your whey protein is carefully produced, from start to finish, the result is an exceptionally high quality protein that is easily digested and utilized by your body.

  • Whey is an excellent source of 18 different amino acids including arginine, cysteine, methionine, and glutamine.  Cysteine and methionine help the body produce glutathione – the “master” antioxidant.
  • Whey promotes healthy insulin secretion and stabilizes blood sugar levels.
  • Whey contains immunoglobulins which support your immune system.
  • And one of the benefits of whey protein for women is that in addition to being a readily available high quality protein it also supports healthy bones

What qualities should you look for when you buy whey protein?

Organic grass fed whey protein ~ Let’s start from the beginning – that is, the cows!  The food that the cows eat and any medications or hormones that they are given will affect the quality of the milk they produce.  So look for whey that comes from cows that are raised “organically”.  They should be grazing on grass that is free of pesticides.  They should not be treated with hormones and antibiotics.

Cold processed ~ This pure, natural milk must be carefully treated to ensure that the protein molecule is not damaged in the processing of the whey.  High heat should be avoided.

Great taste ~ Let’s face it, if it doesn’t taste good you are probably not going to consume it.  Even if you think you should include it in your diet because of the health benefits, your good resolve is likely to be short lived if you don’t like the taste.

The best whey protein for women is one that offers balance and support for your whole system.  The concentrate form maintains all of the essential amino acids that were present in the milk plus the immune-boosting antioxidants.  Did you know that fat is essential for the absorption of some of these nutrients?  If all of the fat is stripped from the whey you lose a lot of the potential benefits.

Whether you are looking for muscle-building support, weight-loss help, restored energy, or just needing to add a high quality protein to your diet, you will find that adding organic whey protein powder to your menu is one of the best things you could do for yourself.  When your menu includes whey protein, weight loss, increased energy and muscle-building support are all enhanced.

Delicious Organic Whey Protein Smoothie

Posted on July 10, 2011 by admin

Organic whey protein concentrate added to this breakfast whey protein smoothie gives you a delicious, nutritious start to your day.  This delicious drink gives you 26 grams of protein for about 250 calories.  It is low in fat, but each meal should have some “good” fat in it, so this would be a good time for you to take your omega-3 oil supplement.  This smoothie is an easy and nutritious meal replacement any time of the day.

Try this recipe:

1 cup plain, fat-free, organic yogurt

1 scoop Action Whey protein concentrate

1/2 cup organic, fresh or frozen, unsweetened strawberries

Blend all ingredients until smooth.  Enjoy!

Remember: the best whey protein powder is the concentrate form and is organic!

Tip: If you struggle with depression or insomnia, try adding half a banana to this smoothie.  The tryptophan in the banana helps lift your mood and will help you sleep better too.

Whey protein helps you lose weight and boost your energy.

Making your own Action Whey  organic whey protein smoothie is a very easy and economical way to give yourself an energy boost any time of the day.  And YOU are in control of the ingredients.  Use only the best.  Be creative.  For optimum health benefits choose organic whey protein and organic fruit and yogurt.  When your breakfast includes the best whey protein powder, weight loss goals are made easier.

Update!  I’ve been learning a lot about the truly amazing benefits of coconut oil, so I have started adding 2 Tablespoons of melted coconut oil to my morning smoothie.  Coconut oil melts at 76 degrees which makes it very easy to melt over a little hot water.  Make your smoothie as usual and then, with the blender running, slowly add the coconut oil.  The result is a smooth, rich, milkshake-like treat.  And, believe it or not, adding coconut oil actually helps you lose weight!!  It is all good.

Buy Whey Protein Concentrate

Posted on June 27, 2011 by admin

When you buy whey protein, choose organic whey protein concentrate.

Organic whey protein concentrate is a delicious way to add quality protein to your diet.

Click Here for Special discounts for High Quality Action Whey Protein Concentrate.

Whey is an excellent source of very high quality protein, but there are several factors to consider in choosing a good source of whey protein powder.  The issue of whey protein isolate vs concentrate is one important factor you should include in your decision making process.

What is the best whey protein powder?

Your whey protein should be

  • organic whey protein made from hormone-free, pesticide-free and GMO-free milk,
  • grass fed whey protein [i.e. grass fed cows],
  • be cold processed from fresh, raw, organic milk,
  • have great flavor,
  • be water soluble,
  • be naturally sweetened, not artificially sweetened, and
  • be highly digestible.  [Look for medium chain fatty acids, not long chain fatty acids.]

What is whey protein concentrate?

Whey is a liquid by-product of the cheese-making process.  When the water is removed from the whey you get whey protein concentrate powder.  Research indicates that whey protein concentrate is digested and absorbed better than any other protein.

Properly concentrated whey will be an excellent source of

Cysteine – an amino acid that contributes to muscle production and recovery, and

CLA – conjugated linoleic acid – an important antioxidant found in dairy fat and therefore missing from fat-free dairy products like skim milk or whey protein isolates.

What is whey protein isolate?

Protein isolate is 90% or more of pure protein.  The other elements naturally found in whey have been stripped away.  The human body was not designed to consume protein in an isolated form devoid of its nutritional cofactors. Most of the isolates you will find on the market are over-processed.  The fragile protein structure has been destroyed.  This leaves them deficient in key amino acids and immune-supporting nutrients.

What benefits can I expect from adding organic whey protein concentrate to my diet?

The benefits of whey protein concentrate added to your diet include

  • delivery of all of the amino acids needed for optimal health,
  • boosting your energy and endurance levels,
  • promoting muscle growth and strength,
  • supporting your immune system,
  • boosting your metabolism,
  • benefiting your circulation and cardiovascular health,
  • support for glutathione – your body’s master antioxidant,
  • support for a healthy digestive system, and
  • benefit for existing healthy cholesterol and blood sugar levels.

Your whey protein concentrate will also benefit healthy aging and mental clarity.

If you thoroughly weigh the pros and cons of whey protein isolate vs concentrate, I think you will find that your greatest over-all health benefits will come from choosing the whey protein concentrate form.  Action Whey meets all of the recommended criteria for a top quality organic whey protein powder.
