ATTENTION: Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration has a new look! The manufacturer of our top-selling whey protein isolate has improved their processing methods to produce a one-step agglomeration method in place of the two-step process from before. The result is a fluffier powder consistency that looks closer to our Whey Protein Isolate CFM than the granular appearance it has had in the past. The Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration will still retain the same great taste with no alterations to the nutritional profile, and what's best: the material mixes better than ever! Try the new Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration today and experience the improvements for yourself!

True Nutrition's Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration is derived from whey protein concentrate, but ultimately from sweet dairy whey.  Isolates, Cold-Filtration, Microfiltration and Ion-Exchange, are protein powders that are the next steps to further process whey protein concentrate.  The Cold-Filtration process is a procedure of separating the proteins through the use of micro filtering the mass all while using a cold or “chilled” process (environment).  These filters allow the protein to be removed from the unwanted fat, lactose and the like.  Cold-Filtration Isolate is virtually fat free and lactose (sugar) free. 

So what is the difference between Cold-Filtration and Microfiltration?  They both use the same extraction process of filtering, but the Cold-Filtration is just that, the liquid mass is chilled and then filtered.  As well the mass is then sprayed dried in a non heat environment to preserve the undenatured proteins.

Using the Cold-Filtration method, the overall protein is said to only be 0-3% denatured, in comparison to other proteins that can be denatured up to 15%.  Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration is very high in bioactive whey protein fractions, including immunoglobulin, lactoferrin and glycomacropeptides.

Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration is a great whey protein for users who experience bloating and other problems associated with whey protein concentrate.  As well, for users who want a higher protein percentage per serving, an Isolate is a great choice. 

Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration possesses an extremely clean taste.  This product alone is opaque in nature (almost clear) and does not have any distinct flavor.  Great for the individual that dislikes the taste of “protein powders.

Directions

As a dietary supplement, mix 1-2 servings of material in approximately 12-16 floz of your favorite beverage. Stir, and enjoy!

Ingredients

Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration, Soy Lecithin (Les than 1%).

L-Arginine is an amino acid (building block of protein) that also provides the nitrogen used to make nitric oxide (NO), once known as endothelial-derived relaxing factor. NO acts on the smooth muscle of the small blood vessels (e.g., in the capillary beds of skeletal muscle) to cause vasodilation and increase blood flow to tissue. (Nitroglycerin, a common treatment for poor coronary artery blood flow, works by producing NO.)

Oral arginine (e.g, 5g / day) normalizes NO levels in those with low NO production(1) and may therefore enhance blood flow during and after exercise. Additionally, by improving the general function of the vascular endothelium (inside of blood vessels), long-term use of arginine may be beneficial for individuals with high blood pressure of poor blood lipid profiles (high cholesterol)(2). Oral arginine may also be helpful, in the same way that viagra can be, for individuals with erectile dysfunction(1).

NO also promotes lipolysis (fat breakdown) per se(3), suggesting that arginine may help with the utilization of body fat stores during exercise or when dieting for fat loss. On the other hand, NO is also has pro-oxidant (free radical) effects suggesting caution with chronic use (see below). In years past, arginine has been touted as a growth hormone (GH) releaser. Although arginine infusion will elevate blood levels of GH, oral arginine does not seem to produce this response(4).

Supplement Use

Arginine (~5g servings) might be used pre- or post-workout to optimize NO levels, blood flow and nutrient delivery to exercising or recovering muscle. It might be used as part of an exercise and dietary regimen designed for fat loss along with supplements such as Green Tea Extract, caffeine, and L-Tyrosine. Arginine could also be used to optimize nutrient delivery in a post-workout or weight gainer drink along Alpha Lipoic Acid, waxy maize and/or other carbohydrate source, and a high quality protein blend. Finally, in conjunction with a doctor’s advice, arginine might be considered along with Tribulus Terrestris as part of a complementary effort to treat erectile dysfunction.

While large amounts of supplemental arginine (e.g., 20g / day) may provide circulatory benefit, chronically elevating nitric oxide might also create a free-radical stress that would ideally be neutralized by the body, with diet and/or with dietary supplement intake, e.g., with anti-oxidants such as ascorbic acid (vitamin C) or Alpha Lipoic Acid.

Ingredients 

L-Arginine.

Glutamine is the most abundant amino-acid within the body and is primarily stored and synthesized within the skeletal muscle. L-Glutamine is a non-essential or conditional amino acid. This means the body can sufficiently synthesis enough for normal cellular activity in normal situations. But many times the body is put under great metabolic stresses, like heavy training exercise, that can deplete the body of its natural stores of glutamine. In these situations, glutamine becomes an essential amino acid that needs to be supplemented, if the above stresses are apparent.

True Nutrition offers a fermented version of L-Glutamine over the usually synthetic version. The fermented version allows for an end product that is of a white powder consistency and has no taste. L-Glutamine is known for its actions in anticatabolic/anabolic activity and may have protective/antioxidant properties. It also has pronounced effects on health of the gut. So why take L-Glutamine? Glutamine increases intra-muscular stores of glutamine and increases the cell volume of the muscle. Glutamine also increases muscle protein synthesis, as well as decrease degradation of muscle protein. Glutamine may also increase plasma growth hormone levels as well.

Directions

As a dietary supplement, take 5-10g of material prior to extensive exercise, and take an additional 5-10g of material following extensive exercise.

Ingredients

L-Glutamine.
