As the name implies, Zero Carb Pristine Protein is a super-clean whey protein isolate, with considerably less lactose than standard whey protein.

Whey protein isolate digests very quickly and contains all nine essential amino acids (EAAs), which are the primary amino acids involved in stimulating muscle protein synthesis and recovery.

Studies show that a high proportion of calories from protein aids in weight loss and prevents weight (re)gain. Whey protein is also known to induce satiety (a sense of fullness), increase secretion of gastrointestinal hormones, and increase diet-induced thermogenesis.
