Finding Your Perfect Protein
If there's one supplement I get asked about more than anything else, it's protein. And my answer? 'It depends.'
At Dr. Ed's, we've helped hundreds of people find the right protein for their goals - because one size definitely doesn't fit all. Whether you're building muscle, managing weight, maximizing your post-workout recovery, or recuperating from an injury or surgery, your protein needs are unique.
That's why we carry a wide range of options - whey, isolate, casein, whole food, plant-based, and even new clear proteins that are trending on social media right now. Each has benefits, and each fit different lifestyles, preferences, and digestion needs.
Whey isolate is the leanest protein, being low in carbs and fat content, great for fast absorption after workouts. Casein digests slowly - ideal before bed. Whole food protein derives its protein content from food sources such as chicken, rice, and eggs instead of whey. Plant proteins are perfect for those avoiding dairy or looking for a more alkaline formula.
Lately, we've seen a big shift toward clear protein, especially from customers who are tired of milkshake-textured protein drinks. They are lean, refreshing, light, and easy to digest - but still deliver the protein and amino acid profile that your body needs.
If you're not sure where to start - or want to make sure you're taking the right kind for your personal gains - stop by and let us guide you. That's what we do best at Dr. Ed's Nutrition Shoppe.
You've got goals. Let's find the protein that helps you reach them.
