NOW Eggwhite Protein Powder, Unflavored, 1.2 lb

Eggwhite Protein from NOW is an excellent natural source of high quality protein.  Good quality proteins contain virtually no fat or carbohydrates and rate well on the PDCAAS (Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score), the newest and most accurate measurement of a protein's quality.

NOW Eggwhite Protein contains <1 g of fat and carbohydrates per serving and rates as one of the highest quality proteins available when using the PDCAAS.  A good mix of proteins from different sources provides the best results, and an excellent addition to any protein supplementation program.

Egg protein stimulates muscle growth and has been demonstrated to increase muscle protein synthesis in university studies. These effects likely result from the high concentration of the amino acid Leucine, the major amino acid responsible for stimulating the synthesis of muscle protein after a meal. Egg contains 10% to 20% more leucine than other protein sources, but it provides your body with all the amino acids it needs for growth and repair.
