VP2 Whey Isolate is a pure hydrolyzed isolated whey protein scientifically proven over 600% more effective for supporting muscle growth than other proteins.

VP2 has enhanced absorption kinetics that shuttle large amounts of the amino acids essential for protein synthesis directly into muscle and other tissues. This enhanced delivery system relieves the metabolic burden on muscle having to supply all organs and tissues with these amino acids. This leaves a more potent supply of critical amino acids within muscle and promotes a more constant, uninterrupted state of protein synthesis, cell volume, and muscle anabolism.

VP2 creates a high level of cysteine within the bloodstream. Research has shown this to be essential to the protein regulation process within the body. A high and constant supply of cysteine channels protein metabolism toward muscle growth and away from muscle breakdown. VP2's cysteine supply relieves the burden on muscle, enhancing muscle anabolism and strength. VP2 is also high in cystine (two cysteine amino acids joined together). This dipeptide is extremely rare in other foods and protein supplements. It is critical to the formation of glutathione within the body.

Glutathione is the centerpiece of all antioxidant and detoxification defense systems within our body and is the third biochemical pathway that leads to muscle growth and strength increases. The research on glutathione's relationship with muscle is clear. Heavy and intense training lowers glutathione levels. Increasing cellular glutathione leads directly to increases in muscle mass and strength. VP2 promotes elevated glutathione levels for dynamic increases in strength and muscle mass.

January 19, 2012 Reviewer: A customer in Connecticut I have been using VP2 Vanilla for several years and continue to re-order. It mixes well in oatmeal and shakes. I always mix my shakes in the blender, so cannot comment on how well it mixes in a shaker. No after taste that I've ever noticed and it is easy on the stomach (lactose free). Every now and again I try to save a few dollars and try something else, but always end up going back to VP2! This review is specific to VP2, Creamy Vanilla Was this review helpful to you? Yes  No November 08, 2012 Reviewer: Justin in Pennsylvania I have been using VP2 for close to 10 years and I can definitely tell you it's the "creme de la creme" of whey protein powders. The vanilla tastes good and it mixes clean, thin, and smooth---much better than some of the other whey proteins that I have tried. Yes, it has a slightly higher price vs. some of the other brands out there, but with VP2 you are getting what you pay for! There have also been several scientific studies done on it proving its effectiveness on promoting new lean muscle growth---most whey proteins cannot say the same. The other whey isolates out there are good too, but VP2 is the highest purified, fastest absorbing and cleanest whey out there. If cost is an issue, I would at least just use it immediately following your weight training session mixed w/gatorade and some dextrose powder in water---a sure fire way to help fuel muscle growth. I sometimes will use both VP2 and Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard Whey (which is lower in cost, but still a really good product)during the day if I need to cut back $, but still supplement with quality whey protein throughout the day. My advice would be to give VP2 a try if you can. It will be well worth the investment. This review is specific to VP2, Creamy Vanilla Was this review helpful to you?

I was going to order a second bottle but ordered a different brand just to try something new. I should have stayed with this, as it's the much better tasting protein.

Yes  No August 13, 2007 Reviewer: Tom in Virginia I have tried probably a dozen protein powders and have settled on VP2 since it has the best taste (as does EAS Myoplex). VP2 is also a good price for the amount of protein per serving. It mixes very easily, although it is thin, not thick like some of the others - which I prefer.
