Feature |
Whey Protein |
Plant Protein |
| Completeness | Complete protein with all 9 essential amino acids | Often incomplete unless blended (pea + rice) |
| Leucine Content | High leucine for faster muscle building | Lower leucine content unless fortified |
| Anabolic Potential | Superior anabolic potential | Matches only when specially formulated |
| Bioavailability | Extremely high due to rapid digestion and absorption | Lower due to slower digestion |
| Digestibility | Whey isolate is even faster and more digestible | Less efficient, higher intake needed |
| Muscle Growth Effectiveness | More effective due to high leucine & fast absorption | Effective only when protein & BCAAs are matched |
| Research Strength | Strong evidence for strength, growth & recovery | Matches only when BCAAs are equal |
| Training Application | Best for MPS, strength & recovery | Effective for vegans when well-formulated |
