Which protein powder is best for aiding weight loss? Of course, there is no single answer, and the answer will depend on your personal weight loss plan and needs. However, there are two products that will work great for most of us - casein and whey. These two protein powders have unique but helpful properties, so let's look at them in more detail.
Casein
Milk Whey
Casein is one of the best protein powders for helping us feel full for many hours. Casein, which is a protein derived from cow's milk, is very slow-digesting, taking 4 to 5 hours to completely digest. A casein protein shake for breakfast, or as a meal replacement in the day, supplies sustained energy to help us stay focused. Protein supports even blood sugar levels too, warding off possible hunger pangs and the irritability that comes with blood sugar spikes and the inevitable drop.
Based on the slow rate at which casein is digested, it works best for diet plans that focus on 3 solid meals a day, rather than those plans that focus on 5 or 6 meals throughout the day. If you drink a casein shake and your next snack is in 2 hours, you may be too full to eat it!
Whey
Whey is the #1 best-selling protein supplement across the globe because it is the best protein powder for building muscle, making it a firm favorite with body-builders and athletes. However, whey's ability to support lean muscle tissue development and not fat, makes it equally great for weight loss efforts. In variation to casein, whey is a fast-digesting protein, making it ideal for a snack or as a small meal. Even so, all proteins as a group take more effort to digest than carbohydrates and fats, so whey still supports even energy and blood sugar levels that aid focus and will power.
Whey is especially good for those on low-calorie plans. Research shows that the amino acids in whey supports muscle maintenance and wards off possible muscle degradation that can occur with low-calorie diets. This is important because its fat we want to lose, not precious muscle tone!
