With a demanding lifestyle, many people are concerned about having a space dedicated to their physical well-being—for example, by practicing some type of sport or physical activity regularly and maintaining a balanced diet.
As detailed in a publication in Food and Nutrition Research, adequate protein intake is essential for muscle growth, physical performance, and recovery after training.[1]
Proper nutrition is essential for achieving the best results for those who participate in sports as part of their routine, particularly an adequate protein intake. Proteins are essential macronutrients without which the body cannot function properly.[1]One option to meet the need for these nutrients is protein drinks, a product that can be beneficial not only for athletes but also for people who need to improve the quality of their nutrition.
In addition, they provide benefits such as improved endurance during training, highly potent energy sources, controlled weight loss, and prevention of weight gain.
The high level of customization available in protein drink formulas is one of the factors attributed to the growth of this type of product in the market. Currently, you can find beverages formulated with plant or animal protein. If you'd like to learn more about vegan protein drinks, we recommend reading our article.
Animal protein can be found in various foods such as meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, and milk derivatives. Many consumers want to maintain their animal protein intake, and the convenience of consuming this nutrient in drink form is an excellent option for those with busy lives. Animal protein-based shakes are practical, nutritious, and, if needed, low in sugar.
Depending on its origin, beverage manufacturers can select animal protein based on the requirements of their end application:
-
Whey protein: Fast absorbing, known as Whey protein, offered in a wide variety of flavors
-
Casein protein: Slow absorption
-
Meat protein: Ideal for people with food intolerances
-
Egg protein: With a high biological and nutritional value
