What is Progenex?
PROGENEX More Muscle and Recovery consists of a high Degree of Hydrolysis (DH) whey-isolate protein rich in di- and tri-peptides. You may have heard about the more average whey protein concentrate and whey protein isolate, but we use different types of whey protein and an isolate with the highest absorption rate. When you consume protein, it undergoes a process called hydrolysis, normally conducted in the GI tract (stomach and small intestine).
During this process the protein peptides are cut into small molecules allowing them to actually be absorbed into your bloodstream so they can reach your cells and tissues. The smaller the molecules, the bigger the chances are for them to be absorbed into your bloodstream, thereby reaching the target cells. Unabsorbed protein is wasted.
This is why the size of the protein molecules is crucial for absorption. By hydrolyzing the protein outside the human body you are optimizing delivery (so that it goes directly into the bloodstream), which means more pure protein will reach your muscles’ cells and tissue, helping you to recover more quickly.
What does Progenex do?
Put simply, it works faster than other proteins and delivers more of the “good protein”. Protein only has value if it reaches the target cells and tissue, where it is needed. So the only valid way to compare proteins is by considering the amount of protein actually absorbed into the bloodstream (because that’s the path to the muscles’ cells).
By consuming PROGENEX, you effectively “save” your body for the purposes of hydrolysis and help ensure the protein gets into your bloodstream. Furthermore PROGENEX is rich in di- and tri-peptides, which several scientific studies indicate as being the superior protein peptides responsible for enhancing recovery.

How is Progenex different?
Superior Quality
High-DH hydrolyzed whey-isolate protein is the most expensive kind of protein. It’s common amongst protein manufacturers to use a mixture of protein sources when producing a protein supplement. Progenex consists of 100% high-DH hydrolyzed whey-isolate protein. While some might seek a low-DH to lower costs Progenex is committed to providing the highest possible.
Great flavor
The more hydrolyzed the more bitter the taste of the protein is. This is another reason for companies not to reach for the highest quality of hydrolysis. We do the opposite and instead we invest a lot in flavor ingredients combined with unique flavoring techniques, which allow us to produce absolutely amazing flavors making people really enjoy and look forward to their daily shake.
Trustworthy ingredients
We are a brand of the people and for the people. We know and understand how our product is made. We know and understand how the ingredients to our products perform in ones´ body. We promise the best and deliver the very best – that’s our goal.
Is it worth it?
We believe it is, but it’s hard to speak for others. When talking about worth/value it’s a personal question of ones financial considerations. Just remember when comparing proteins, that it’s the amount of protein absorbed that’s really of interest rather than just the amount you consume. Its all about Quality – You may compared it to grocery shopping; some might go for the cheapest discounted cost of groceries while others value the quality of food and taste.
Or just like some might choose the cheapest globo gym nearby, filled with bad equipment and no personal assistant, while others value quality training with basic movements and personal relationship. It’s the same with nutrition. By choosing Progenex you settle for nothing but the best.
