The Best Protein Cupcakes

[cold-earth-connection]

Got some free logs from a local arborist today, big score. Also, this to me is why fitness is super important.

I'm healthy & strong, and can do tricky stuff comfortably. There should be many more decades of this.

I have a theory that you don't actually get old until you're between 60-70, but most people seem to give up at 40-50.

Fun Fact: The phrase "Get out of the way!" is an evolution from way back when, there bugs or other contaminants would get into the milk in the process of cheese making. The leftover liquid is called "whey" (like in your curds and whey). Cheese attendants would shout "Get out of the whey!" while dipping their hands in and flinging the bugs or contaminants out.

That evolved into it being used metaphorically -- if someone was blocking your path, you'd shout "Hey [person impeding my process / a nuisance]! Get out of the whey!"

Naturally as whey became less part of everyone's everyday life, the phrase evolved into using "way", as in meaning a path, and still retained its core meaning.

*Note: this is a lie I made it all up

The Best Chocolate Whey Protein Powders (Ranked)

Whey protein supplements are becoming popular for those looking to conveniently increase their protein intake. They are a wonderful addition to any well-balanced diet, that can help you achieve your fitness goals. During my weightlifting journey, I have tried many chocolate whey protein powders and have figured out what factors to look out for:

Value: Protein prices can fluctuate but generally brands can have ranges that they stick between.

Protein per serving (30g)

Taste

Fat and carbohydrate content: Low-quality whey protein will have high amounts of fat and carbohydrates and represents the amount of processing used to make the powder.

Mixability in water and milk: How easily the powder mixes in liquids without lumps.

Allergens: Whey protein obviously contains dairy and so may not be suitable for those with lactose intolerance.

These factors matter whether you're looking to build muscle, lose weight or just stay healthy.

Chocolate is typically a good flavour option for whey protein as it is made to be palatable to a wide range of people. Also, chocolate flavours are not usually too sweet or bland, when compared to other flavours.

If you have not tried any of the powders in this list, then you should consider trying them as I would recommend all of them for their unique benefits.

1. Optimum Nutrition (Double Rich Chocolate)

Out of all the brands I have tried, this one was the best overall. Its excellent taste and mixability easily justify its slightly higher price point. Moreover, this whey has an excellent nutrition profile, packed with a whopping 24g of high-quality protein per serving with low carbs and fat for guilt-free consumption.

Value: 3/5

Protein per serving (30g): 24g

Fat per serving (30g): 1.4g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 1.6g

Taste: 4/5

Mixability in milk: 3.5/5

Overall ranking: 4.4/5

2. MyProtein Impact Whey Protein (Chocolate Smooth)

The is a chocolate protein powder with a premium taste, similar to a chocolate milkshake. Mixes excellently in water and milk for a smooth consistency. This could have easily taken the top spot if it wasn't for its low protein per serving of 19g.

Value: 3.5/5

Protein per serving (30g): 19g

Fat per serving (30g): 1.9g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 1.9g

Taste: 4/5

Mixability in water: 4.5/5

Mixability in milk: 4/5

Overall: 4.2/5

3. PhD 100% Whey (Belgian Chocolate)

PhD's whey protein powder is a great choice for those looking for better value. You'll also love that this protein powder has only 1g of carbs per 20g serving, making it a no-brainer for those looking to lose weight. I personally loved the smell of this one and how well it mixed without lumps.

Value: 4/5

Protein per serving (30g): 20g

Fat per serving (30g): 1.5g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 1g

Taste: 4.5/5

Mixability in water: 4.5/5

Mixability in milk: 4/5

Overall: 4.2/5

4. PBN - Premium Body Nutrition Whey Powder (Chocolate)

PBN whey is the best budget-friendly choice, able to compete with even the best on this list. I was pleasantly surprised by the high protein per serving content and overall it has a great nutrition profile. However, I found that this protein struggled slightly with mixability and had a boring taste.

Value: 4.5/5

Protein per serving (30g): 23g

Fat per serving (30g): 1.8g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 2.1g

Taste: 3.5/5

Mixability in water: 3.5/5

Mixability in milk: 3.5/5

Overall: 4.0/5

5. Protein Works - Whey Protein 80 Powder (Chocolate Silk)

Protein Works' chocolate whey powder is a great choice, with a good nutrition profile. It suits all needs including muscular repair and weight loss and will help you achieve your goals. Its taste is too sweet, in my opinion, but if you can ignore that, this is a powder that mixes well.

Value: 3.5/5

Protein per serving (30g): 20g

Fat per serving (30g): 1.8g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 2.1g

Taste: 3.5/5

Mixability in water: 4.0/5

Mixability in milk: 3.5/5

Overall: 3.9/5

6. Peak Supps Whey Protein Powder Concentrate (Chocolate)

Peak Supps prides itself on the quality of its whey protein, claiming its whey is sourced from grass-fed cows. I found that this protein mixes well with 50/50 water/powder by volume, providing a clean, premium-tasting protein shake. If you don't mind the price, this is a great quality protein powder, that feel extra healthy.

Value: 3/5

Protein per serving (30g): 23g

Fat per serving (30g): 2.3g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 1.8g

Taste: 3/5

Mixability in water: 3/5

Mixability in milk: 3.5/5

Overall: 3.2/5

7. Amfit Nutrition Whey Protein Powder (Chocolate)

This is another budget option that has good protein per serving. Also, its fat and carbohydrate content is perfectly average for protein powders on the market. Others would say that this is too sweet and artificial tasting and I would have to agree. Another gripe I had with this protein is that it takes a bit more effort to remove lumps.

I also had problems resealing the bag it came in, but nothing major.

Value: 4.0/5

Protein per serving (30g): 22g

Fat per serving (30g): 1.8g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 2.3g

Taste: 3.5/5

Mixability in water: 3.5/5

Mixability in milk: 3.5/5

Overall: 3.8/5

8. Bulk Essential Whey Protein Powder (Chocolate)

This would be a great protein powder as it tastes great, but its carbohydrate content is way too high at 8.2g per serving. This is much higher than its competitors and I would not recommend this to someone trying to lose weight. It is a shame as this is a great-tasting protein powder that mixes reasonably well with whatever you put it in.

Value: 4.0/5

Protein per serving (30g): 19g

Fat per serving (30g): 1.2g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 8.2g

Taste: 3.0/5

Mixability in water: 3/5

Mixability in milk: 3.5/5

Overall: 3.7/5

9. Warrior, Whey - Protein Powder (Chocolate)

For those on a tighter budget, this is a less popular choice, but a good one nonetheless. It is a high-protein powder with slightly higher fat and carb content than most. Its taste and smell are not extraordinary like the powders higher on this list, but it gets the job done. I would describe the shake consistency as a bit gritty and thick, but at this price point, it's hard to complain.

Value: 4.0/5

Protein per serving (30g): 22g

Fat per serving (30g): 2.3g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 2.9g

Taste: 3.5/5

Mixability in water: 3.0/5

Mixability in milk: 3.5/5

Overall: 3.6/5

10. My Sports Fuel Premium Protein (Double Chocolate)

As by far the cheapest on this list, the My Sports Fuel Whey Protein powder surprised me the most. The double chocolate flavour has a taste similar to Ovaltine. I would stick to water for this shake as the grittiness can be overwhelming went mixed with milk. I would say others will either love or hate this protein powder with no in-between. However, at its price, there is little harm in trying this brand as you may love it.

Value: 4.5/5

Protein per serving (30g): 24g

Fat per serving (30g): 0.2g

Carbohydrate per serving (30g): 3.8g

Taste: 3.0/5

Mixability in water: 3.0/5

Mixability in milk: 2.5/5

Overall: 3.3/5

Best for taste: Optimum Nutrition (Double Chocolate)

Best for value: PBN - Premium Body Nutrition Whey Powder (Chocolate)

Best for mixability: MyProtein Impact Whey Protein (Chocolate Smooth)

Best for protein, fat and carb content: PhD 100% Whey (Belgian Chocolate)

La whey c'est important?

La whey, également connue sous le nom de protéine de lactosérum, est une forme de protéine dérivée du lait. Elle est souvent utilisée par les sportifs et les personnes pratiquant une activité physique intense en raison de ses nombreux avantages pour la performance et la récupération musculaire. Voici quelques raisons pour lesquelles la whey est importante pour les sportifs :

Teneur élevée en acides aminés essentiels : La whey est considérée comme une protéine complète car elle contient tous les acides aminés essentiels nécessaires à la croissance et à la réparation musculaire. Ces acides aminés aident à favoriser la synthèse des protéines musculaires, ce qui est important pour la récupération et la construction musculaire après l'entraînement.

Digestion rapide : La whey est rapidement digérée et absorbée par le corps, ce qui en fait une source de protéines idéale après l'entraînement. Elle peut fournir rapidement les acides aminés nécessaires aux muscles pour commencer le processus de récupération.

Augmentation de la synthèse des protéines musculaires : La whey stimule la synthèse des protéines musculaires, ce qui signifie qu'elle favorise la croissance musculaire et aide à prévenir la dégradation musculaire. Cela peut être bénéfique pour les sportifs qui cherchent à développer leur masse musculaire et à améliorer leur force.

Source pratique de protéines : La whey est disponible sous forme de poudre qui peut être facilement mélangée avec de l'eau ou d'autres liquides. Cela en fait une option pratique pour les sportifs qui ont besoin d'une source rapide de protéines après l'entraînement ou pendant la journée.

Soutien de l'immunité : La whey contient également des fractions de lactosérum bioactives, telles que l'immunoglobuline et la lactoferrine, qui peuvent aider à renforcer le système immunitaire. Les sportifs peuvent être plus vulnérables aux infections et à la diminution de la fonction immunitaire en raison de l'intensité de leurs entraînements, et la whey peut contribuer à atténuer ces effets.

Whey Blintzes with Ricotta filling

After last week's experiment making ricotta and cannoli filling (link in comments) , I had whey leftover in the fridge.

Today I had time to experiment with it.

1 cup all purpose flour

1 cup whey

1/4 cup brown sugar (loose,not packed)

1/2 Tbs oil

1/2 tsp salt

Mix together until smooth, let sit about 10 minutes, then use to make thin crepes in hot, well-oiled skillet. Fry just until slightly crispy around edges.

Taste test the first one and adjust sugar/salt to taste.

Put a dollop of whole fat basket ricotta on each crepe, a sprinkle of brown sugar (or use last week's cannoli filling)

and roll up.

Delicious.

[nanotechnologyworld]

Every day, large quantities of whey are produced as a by-product by the dairy industry. In Germany alone, this amounts to 12.6 million tons a year. For each kilogram of cheese, for example, 9 kilograms of whey are produced. Some of this is processed further, for example into whey-based drinks with fruit additives or other mixed drinks. The lactose and proteins contained in the whey can also be separated and used in other ways, for example, as a raw material in pharmaceuticals or in baby food. However, once the proteins and lactose have been separated, molasses remains. Disposing of this substance is very complicated and expensive, due to its relatively high salt content. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTS in Hermsdorf, together with TU Dresden, have now developed a process for extracting valuable ethyl acetate, a colorless solvent, from the molasses. Ethyl acetate is often used when manufacturing adhesives, printing inks or varnishes. It can also be used to clean surfaces.
