With \u003cstrong\u003e30g of highly bioavailable protein per serving\u003c\/strong\u003e, Hydro Whey is Marvelous Nutrition's top-tier protein, positioned above \u003cstrong\u003eBulk\u003c\/strong\u003e (non-hydrolysed WPI) thanks to the additional hydrolysis process that pre-digests WPI into low molecular weight peptides for even faster absorption. Zero added fat, zero added sugars, low lactose. 2 kg per package. Flavours: Cappuccino, Chocolate, Cookies \u0026amp; Cream, Strawberry and Vanilla.

The WPI hydrolysis process adds an additional step of enzymatic pre-digestion that breaks down the isolate proteins into \u003cstrong\u003elow molecular weight peptides\u003c\/strong\u003e (di-, tri-, and oligopeptides of 2 to 20 amino acids) and free amino acids. Compared to non-hydrolysed WPI (Bulk), Hydro Whey has: a faster onset of plasma aminoacidemia (peptides are absorbed by PEPT1\/PEPT2 peptide transport, which is more efficient than individual amino acid transporters), a shorter total time to peak aminoacidemia, a shorter gastric digestion time (peptides require less work from pancreatic proteases), and a lower risk of gastrointestinal discomfort in people with digestive sensitivity. Hydrolysed whey is the choice for competitive athletes and bodybuilders who want to maximise the speed of amino acid delivery to the muscle in the critical post-workout window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe hydrolysed WPI + WPC blend: the combination that balances speed and texture:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe inclusion of a fraction of \u003cstrong\u003eWhey Protein Concentrate (WPC)\u003c\/strong\u003e in the Hydro Whey formula, alongside the primary hydrolysed WPI, serves a technical and organoleptic purpose: pure hydrolysed WPI has a very watery texture and a slightly bitter taste (resulting from the hydrolysis of some peptide bonds that exposes bitter-tasting amino acids like valine, isoleucine, and leucine). WPC, with its residual lactose content and higher fraction of intact beta-lactoglobulin, contributes to a creamier texture and a rounder, more palatable flavour, without significantly compromising the absorption speed dominated by the hydrolysed WPI. This combination thus balances the performance properties of the hydrolysate with the palatability and texture of the concentrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdded L-Glycine: supporting collagen, creatine, and glutathione synthesis:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe addition of \u003cstrong\u003eL-Glycine\u003c\/strong\u003e to Hydro Whey is a relevant formulation differentiator compared to Bulk (which does not include standalone glycine). As already described in the \u003cstrong\u003eMaze\u003c\/strong\u003e section, glycine has multiple functions relevant to athletes: it is the most abundant amino acid in collagen (~33% of the composition), being essential for the synthesis and maintenance of tendon, ligament, and cartilage integrity; it is a precursor (together with arginine and methionine) of \u003cstrong\u003eendogenous creatine\u003c\/strong\u003e via AGAT+GAMT; and it is the second most limiting amino acid in the synthesis of \u003cstrong\u003eglutathione\u003c\/strong\u003e (GSH = glycine + cysteine + glutamate), the main intracellular antioxidant. Conventional whey (WPI or WPC) has a relatively low glycine content compared to other animal proteins, making the addition of L-Glycine a specific complement to the amino acid profile of whey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNaturally present EAAs and BCAAs: the complete protein profile of whey:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAs described for Bulk, whey has the most favourable EAA and BCAA profile of any natural protein food, with special emphasis on \u003cstrong\u003eleucine\u003c\/strong\u003e (~10 to 11% of total protein) as the main activator of mTORC1. In Hydro Whey, this profile is fully preserved during the hydrolysis process (which does not alter the amino acid composition, only the chain length), making it equivalent to Bulk in terms of amino acid profile but superior in absorption speed. The product description explicitly states \"EAAs naturally occurred (including BCAA), L-Glutamine and all the amino acids\" to confirm the completeness of the amino acid profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGuar gum + xanthan gum: consistent creamy texture in all flavours:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAs in \u003cstrong\u003eBIG\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eRice Cream\u003c\/strong\u003e, the combination of guar gum and xanthan gum ensures a creamy and homogeneous texture in all Hydro Whey flavours, preventing phase separation and the characteristic lumps of hydrolysed proteins (which have lower natural viscosity than intact proteins due to the lower molecular weight of the peptides). This creamy texture is especially important in Chocolate, Cookies \u0026amp; Cream, and Cappuccino flavours, which require a denser consistency to replicate the sensory experience of the reference beverages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e5 classic dessert flavours + Cappuccino: premium palatability:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eHydro Whey is available in 5 flavours — Chocolate, Cookies \u0026amp; Cream, Strawberry, Vanilla and the distinctive \u003cstrong\u003eCappuccino\u003c\/strong\u003e — covering the most popular classic protein flavours on the market, with the addition of Cappuccino as a premium flavour for coffee lovers. The low-fat cocoa powder in the formula (as a declared ingredient) suggests that the Chocolate flavour uses real cocoa as a base flavouring, which contributes to a richer and less artificial flavour profile than chocolate flavours based exclusively on synthetic aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eUsage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended dose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mix 1 scoop (30g) with 300 to 400 ml of cold water, shake vigorously. Consume immediately after training or at any time of the day. For maximum utilisation of the hydrolysate's absorption speed, the post-workout window (within 30 minutes after training) is the moment of greatest impact. Hydro Whey can also be consumed at breakfast for a quick protein boost, or between meals to maintain an anabolic state. 2 kg = ~66 doses of 30g.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marvelous Nutrition","offers":[{"title":"Baunilha","offer_id":52856549114203,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Morango","offer_id":52856549146971,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Creme de Bolacha","offer_id":52856549179739,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Chocolate","offer_id":52856549212507,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Capuccino","offer_id":52856549245275,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/0250\/3771\/files\/MarvelousNutrition-HYDROWhey.webp?v=1776895938","url":"https:\/\/brothers-club.com\/en\/products\/marvelous-nutrition-hydro-whey","provider":"Brother's Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
