Protein powders are used as supplements by people for different 
purposes like gaining muscle, muscle repair, post-workout drink, lean 
muscle growth, etc. There are different kinds of protein powders like 
plant-based ones, whey protein supplements, etc. Whey protein is one 
of the most popular type that is being used. Whey protein is obtained 
from milk and is said to contain 9 essential amino acids. Whey protein 
and casein are the two proteins found in milk. 
There are three types of whey proteins. Whey Concentrate (It consists 
of 70-80% protein and is cheaper compared to the other types.), 
Whey Isolate (It is formed when whey concentrate undergoes further 
processing. It has 90% protein. It is costlier than concentrate.) Whey 
Hydrolysate (This is the costliest type since it is highly processed and in 
pre-digested form. It is easy for the body to absorb.)
