Whey peptide HW-3

What is Whey Peptide HW-3?

Whey peptide HW3 is a product obtained by enzymatically breaking down whey protein in milk, resulting in a high concentration of “ Di and tripeptides", which have smaller molecular weights, superior digestibility and absorptivity compared to other protein products.  Di and Tripeptides consist of two and three connected amino acids, respectively.

 

HW-3 contains over 20% of BCAA (Branched-Chain Amino Acids), which stimulates muscle building.  (Reference: In-house Data) 

Leucine is faster and rapidly absorbed into your bloodstream compared to other proteins, resulting in high MPS (Muscle Protein Synthesis)

Characteristics of HW-3
  • High content of BCAA amino acids (Leucine, Valine, isoleucine)
  • Di and tri peptides are high in concentration
  • Excellent water solubility
  • ​Excellent absorption capabilities
  • Effective in smaller amounts - cause low impact on body

Physical Properties of HW-3
  • Excellent water solubility
  • Stable to heat treatment and wider range in pH
  • Clear solution and low turbidity
Benefits
  • Supports muscle building, maintains muscle mass and strength*
  • ​Superior health effects on muscles compared to other proteins*
  • Has unique effects such as suppression of body fat accumulation and prevention from UV-induced skin aging*

Recommended for:
    • Seniors to maintain energy levels​

    • Individuals experiencing muscle atrophy

    • Muscle injury recovery

    • Athletes who want to maximize training effects

    • ​People who wish to maintain a good healthy shape
