Description
Thorne Whey Protein Isolate in Chocolate is a whey protein powder made for people who care about what goes in their shake and want third party sport testing behind it. It is described as NSF Certified for Sport, provides 21 g of protein per serve, and comes in a 1.99 lb (906 g) tub with 30 serves.
What is Thorne Whey Protein Isolate?
Whey protein isolate is whey that has been filtered further than a standard concentrate. Thorne positions this product for athletes, older adults and anyone who wants extra support for maintaining healthy muscle mass. Each 30.2 g scoop contains 25 g of whey protein isolate, which delivers 21 g of protein and 2.2 g of leucine, along with a balanced amino acid profile.
It also includes the digestive enzymes bromelain and papain, which the brand says are there to aid protein digestion. The chocolate flavour comes from alkalised cocoa powder and chocolate flavour, sweetened with evaporated cane juice sugar and rebaudioside A from stevia, and thickened with xanthan gum and carboxymethylcellulose gum.

How it fits into your routine
A chocolate whey isolate like this is easy to slot into a training day. Shake it after a workout, blend it with milk and a banana for breakfast, or stir it into oats. The 21 g protein serve is on the lighter side compared with some other isolates, so it suits people who prefer a smaller scoop or want to add their own ingredients.
