What’s the Difference Between Whey and Plant-Based Protein?

Understand the key differences between whey and plant-based protein. Learn which one is best for you based on your dietary preferences and fitness goals.

Should I choose whey or plant-based protein for my workouts?

Both whey and plant-based proteins have their benefits, but the choice depends on dietary preferences, tolerances, and goals:
 

Whey Protein: A complete protein with all essential amino acids, including leucine, which promotes muscle growth. Recommended dose: 20-25g post-workout. Best for those who can tolerate dairy.
 

Plant-Based Protein: Ideal for vegans and those with lactose intolerance. Options include pea protein, rice protein, and hemp protein. Look for blends to ensure all essential amino acids. Recommended dose: 20-25g post-workout.
 

Tip: If you choose plant-based protein, consider mixing with other plant proteins (like rice + pea protein) to ensure you're getting all essential amino acids.
