Protein powders currently on the market can be divided into three categories based on functionality:
(1) Quickly absorb protein powder
(2) Slow-release protein powder
(3) Slowly absorbing protein powder

(1) Fast-absorbing protein powder:
Our common whey protein powder is a fast-absorbing protein powder, and even faster ones are protein isolate and hydrolyzed protein, but the price of the latter two is basically 1.5-2 times that of pure whey protein.
Fast-absorbing protein powder is suitable for use immediately after training, because we know that the 30 minutes after training is the golden period for protein supplementation, also called the "window period". The faster the absorption rate at this time, the better.
So, although protein isolate and hydrolyzed protein are relatively expensive, there are still many bodybuilding enthusiasts willing to choose these two.As a ration for the golden supplement period after training.
The English names of several whey protein powders are summarized below to facilitate identification and distinction:
Pure whey protein powder: Whey Protein;
Whey Protein isolate;
Hydrolyzed whey protein powder: Whet Protein Hydrolysis;
