Protein

Proteins consist of amino acids and build the basic module of all cells. The number of different amino acids is 21. Proteins have different tasks in the body. The greates task is the function as nutrient of the cells. Furthermore, they serve as support to metabolism processes in the human body. The protein requirements of a human being is 0.8g per kg body weight on average. Because of intensive muscle charge, the need of proteins can increase in order to get the demanded muscles back into shape.
When this extra demand cannot be covered by normal food intake, it is reasonable to take the appropriate nutritional supplements. In that case, nutritional supplements with a high protein content are recommendable. There are different presentations as well as different kinds of proteins, that differ in intake time in the body.
Typical proteins for nutritional supplements are whey proteins, the more-component-protein, the milk protein and the soya proteins.

Whey-Protein:
The whey-protein differs from other protein forms regarding the intake time (resorption time). The whey-protein needs about an hour until it gets completey absorbed by the body. Due to the shorter resorption time it is recommended to take the whey-protein when the body is ready to absorb it or when the body is in higher need.
This means that the use of whey-protein is reasonable in the morning because the body has burned all proteins at night.

Due to the shorter resorption time it is recommended to take the whey-protein when the body is ready to absorb it or when the body is in higher need.
This means that the use of whey-protein is reasonable in the morning because the body has burned all proteins at night. According to this, the body can absorb it more faster at that time.
The second resorption point of time of the whey-protein is directly after more intensive physical charge. Because of these charges, muscles have been stimulated to build and, therefore, need proteins more faster. The extra demand is also caused because the muscles are slightly damaged during the workout. Those are getting repaired by means of the protein.

Milk protein (Casein):
Milk protein has the longest resorption time of all kinds of protein. This feature can have a very positive effect on the protein metabolism. As this protein can only be very slowly used, it supplies the body over a very long time (seven to eight hours) with components. Thereby it avoids the reduction of muscle mass and keeps the body in a muscle-maintaining state (anti-catabole phase). That's why the casein is ideal as last meal before going to bed because the body is supplied with nutrients at night.

Soya-protein:
The soya-protein is based on an absolutely vegetable basis, compared to all other proteins.
Soya-protein is optimal as small meal supplement or for meal revaluation. It has a middle or long resorption time and is therefore idal as snack because the absorbed protein is at your disposal for a respectively long time. Those who insist on a protein of good quality of vegetable basis, is served well with the soya-protein. Other vegetable proteins as the whey protein are only poorly used by the body.

More component protein:
The special feature of the more component protein is that it consists of several different kinds of proteins. The proteins most often used are Lactalbumin, Eialbumin, milk protein and whey-protein. The more component protein combines the advantages of all single proteins and is therefore a very popular sports nutrition product for strength and fitness athletes.
