The Bigger Picture of Meal Replacements

To maintain lean muscle mass you need to consume high-protein meals 5-6 times a day. Whey Gold Meal™ is a quick, convenient, and delicious meal providing premium proteins, quality carbohydrates, dietary fiber, vitamins, and essential minerals. By using only whey proteins, the same instantized proteins (isolates, concentrates, and hydrolysates) found in our 100% Whey Gold Standard™, we created a uniquely superior meal replacement of the highest nutritional value. Whey Gold Meal™ compromises nothing.
The Protein Power of Whey
Highest Scoring

As you probably know, different protein sources have varied digestion and absorption rates. Amino acid profiles differ as well. But whey proteins have the highest Biological Value, Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score, and Protein Efficiency Ratio compared with any other single protein. Whey wins out because it’s rich in all eight essential amino acids, it’s rapidly digested, and easily assimilated.
Glutamine & Glutamine Precursors

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the human body. However, heavy lifting and extreme physical exertion may exceed the body’s ability to synthesize glutamine from other compounds, causing plasma glutamine levels to fall, which could potentially weaken your immune system. That’s why 16% of the total protein in each serving of Whey Gold Meal™ is comprised of naturally occurring glutamine and glutamine precursors.
Branch Chain Amino Acids

BCAAs are unique in that they can be directly metabolized by muscle tissue to serve as an important fuel source during strenuous physical activity. Whey protein is one of nature’s best sources of the three branched chain amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine.
Rapid Delivery

Whey proteins are some of the fastest digesting proteins available, which means you are able to absorb vital nutrients a short time before your workout. Rapid amino acid delivery is also critical immediately following your workout, when your liver and muscles are primed for recovery and glycogen resynthesis.

The human body needs a constant supply of protein to repair existing cells and to build healthy new cells. In fact, the human body replaces skin every seven years, fat cells every thirteen months, the lining in the digestive tract every three to four days, and builds muscle tissue daily. Protein also plays an essential role in the production of hormones, blood hemoglobin, antibodies, and new muscle tissue.

Under a rigorous exercise or athletic training regimen, the human body requires an enhanced supply of essential protein. Advanced Pharmaceutical Research created this Whey Protein product to ensure superior conditioning and muscular development. Over the years scientists have developed numerous methods to evaluate protein quality, among which are Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER), Net Protein Utilization (NPU), and Biological Value (BV). Regardless of the testing methodology, whey protein is always rated at the top of the scale.

Whey proteins naturally contain high amounts of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA’s) and glutamic acid, which enhance muscle recovery and nitrogen balance. BCAA’s comprise about one-third of the muscle tissue and up to 10% of the fuel required in muscle activity. Advanced Pharmaceutical Research uses only proteins which have been processed under carefully regulated temperature conditions. High heat processing coagulates or “denatures” the protein molecules, which diminishes their potency and assimilation. Our superior ingredients and controlled processing yield an amino acid profile that is 95% un-denatured.

We have also fortified our Whey Protein with hydrolyzed whey peptides, taurine, and glutamine, which has been shown to maintain nitrogen balance, accelerate muscle recovery, and strengthen the immune system. This is especially important since high-intensity exercise taxes the immune system. A proprietary blend of digestive aids has also been included to help digestion and assimilation.
