This is not an ultra-filtered isolate-only product, and it is not a bloated meal replacement. It sits in the practical middle ground with 24g protein per serving, 2g fat, low sodium, and a three-part whey matrix consisting of whey protein concentrate, whey protein isolate, and hydrolyzed whey protein concentrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom a formulation standpoint, the core strength here is the use of complementary whey forms. Whey protein itself has strong evidence for increasing muscle protein synthesis, with large evidence summaries and meta-analytic data supporting its role in hypertrophy and recovery when total daily protein is adequate. A 24g serving lands directly in the clinically relevant range commonly used to stimulate muscle protein synthesis in most adults, especially after training. In practical terms, that means this serving is large enough to function as a real protein feeding, not just a label decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhey protein isolate is the leaner, more refined fraction of the blend. It typically contributes fast digestion, a strong essential amino acid profile, and lower accompanying fat and carbohydrate content. That supports the formula’s clean macro profile and helps make the shake useful both after training and during calorie-controlled phases. Whey protein concentrate brings a slightly fuller texture and a broader dairy protein matrix, while still providing complete amino acids. Hydrolyzed whey protein concentrate is pre-digested into smaller peptide fragments, which generally improves speed of absorption and can make the post-workout experience feel lighter and less heavy than concentrate alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a system that delivers both immediacy and practicality. Hydrolyzed whey and isolate help get amino acids into circulation quickly after training, while concentrate rounds out the shake experience and supports satiety. That is the real logic of a blended whey when it is done correctly: not just marketing variety, but a balance of digestion speed, texture, and protein efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are, however, transparency limits. The total protein is fully disclosed at 24g, but the individual amounts of whey concentrate, whey isolate, and hydrolyzed whey concentrate are not broken out. That means this is effectively a protein matrix with hidden internal ratios. In the protein category, that is common, but it is still less transparent than a formula that tells you exactly how much isolate versus concentrate you are getting. The good news is that the top-line metric that matters most in this category, total complete protein per serving, is clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou also get 80mg calcium and 20mg sodium per serving. These are not major selling points here, but they do contribute to the nutritional profile. The sodium content is notably low for a flavored protein powder, which some users will appreciate if they already get plenty of sodium elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat should you expect? Day 1, this is about convenience and compliance: an easy 24g protein feeding that helps close the gap between where your intake is and where it needs to be. Over 2-4 weeks of consistent use, the benefit is less about a dramatic sensation and more about accumulation: better recovery support, more consistent daily protein intake, improved ability to preserve or build lean mass, and fewer missed opportunities to stimulate muscle protein synthesis across the day. That is what a good whey protein should do, and Commissary Whey is built for exactly that role.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24g protein per serving — this is a real muscle-supportive dose, not a light protein snack dressed up as a sports supplement. In the research on whey protein and muscle protein synthesis, servings in the 20-40g range are the standard zone where meaningful stimulation happens.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree whey forms in one matrix — whey protein concentrate, whey protein isolate, and hydrolyzed whey protein concentrate each bring a different functional advantage. The formula is designed to balance fast amino acid delivery, manageable texture, and everyday usability rather than relying on a single protein source.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhey isolate included — isolate is the more refined whey fraction and typically supports a leaner macro profile with less accompanying fat and carbohydrate. That matters for users cutting, recomping, or simply wanting more protein per scoop without excess filler.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydrolyzed whey included — hydrolyzed proteins are partially broken down into smaller peptides, which generally speeds digestion and absorption. In the real world, that means a post-workout shake that tends to feel lighter and less heavy than concentrate alone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2g total fat — the formula keeps non-protein calories controlled, which makes it easier to fit into structured macros. That is especially useful for physique athletes and anyone trying to increase protein intake without accidentally overshooting calories.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow sodium at 20mg — many flavored powders push sodium much higher, but this one stays notably low. That gives you more flexibility if the rest of your diet already includes electrolyte products, sauces, processed foods, or restaurant meals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80mg calcium per serving — not a clinically significant standalone calcium supplement dose, but a useful nutritional contribution from a dairy-based protein source. It adds a small bone-mineral support element to the shake’s overall profile.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong evidence category — whey protein is one of the most researched sports nutrition ingredients on the market. Large evidence summaries support its role in increasing muscle protein synthesis, making this one of the most evidence-grounded categories in supplementation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUseful for both training and non-training days — this is not just a post-workout product. A 24g serving also works as a high-protein snack, breakfast add-on, or gap-filler when whole-food protein intake falls behind your target.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlend logic over gimmicks — this formula does not pretend to be a recovery matrix loaded with token extras. It focuses almost entirely on the thing that matters most in a protein powder: delivering complete, rapidly digestible protein in a practical serving.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransparent on total protein, limited on source ratios — the label clearly tells you the product delivers 24g of protein, which is the top-line number most users need. The tradeoff is that the exact gram amount of isolate versus concentrate versus hydrolyzed whey is not disclosed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy synergy with creatine and carbohydrates — protein works especially well alongside creatine for long-term strength and hypertrophy support, and with carbohydrates post-workout for glycogen replenishment and insulin-assisted nutrient delivery. That makes this formula highly stackable inside a serious sports nutrition routine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Is This For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifters in a hypertrophy phase who need a reliable post-workout protein feeding instead of another underpowered snack. The 24g of blended whey gives them a clinically relevant amount of complete protein to support muscle protein synthesis after high-volume sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBusy professionals who train before work or on lunch breaks and struggle to eat a full whole-food meal immediately after. The whey isolate and hydrolyzed whey components make this a practical fast-digesting option that is easier to get down quickly than chicken, rice, or a heavier shake.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAthletes in a calorie deficit trying to preserve lean mass while keeping macros tight. At 24g protein with only 2g fat and a lean overall profile, this fits cutting phases far better than higher-calorie mass-oriented protein products.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral gym-goers who routinely fall short on daily protein intake and need a consistent way to close the gap. Research on whey protein strongly supports its role in muscle protein synthesis, and a 24g serving is enough to make a real difference in daily totals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifters who want a blend rather than isolate-only because they value a more balanced combination of taste, texture, and digestion profile. The combination of concentrate, isolate, and hydrolyzed concentrate is designed to provide fast amino acid delivery without feeling overly thin or watery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOlder active adults focused on maintaining muscle mass and functional performance as protein needs become harder to meet through food alone. Observational data shows many older adults underconsume protein, and a convenient whey serving helps make muscle-supportive intake more realistic.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMix 1 rounded scoop with roughly 8-12 ounces of cold water for a lighter shake or milk for a thicker, more calorie-dense option. The best use case is within 30-60 minutes after training, when a fast, convenient protein feeding helps cover recovery needs without waiting for a full meal. You can also use it between meals, at breakfast, or anytime your daily protein intake is falling short. If you are sensitive to dairy, start with a smaller serving to assess tolerance, since the formula includes whey concentrate in addition to isolate and hydrolyzed whey. For a smoother mix, use a shaker bottle rather than a spoon, and cold liquid generally improves texture and flavor. This product stacks especially well with creatine monohydrate, which complements protein by supporting ATP regeneration and long-term strength and muscle gain. It does not require cycling because whey protein works through daily nutritional support, not receptor stimulation. Store it sealed in a cool, dry place away from heat and humidity to protect texture and flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to Expect\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMinutes 0-10: you notice taste, texture, and how light or heavy the shake feels in your stomach. Because this is a blended whey with hydrolyzed and isolate fractions, many users will find it more comfortable post-workout than a concentrate-only shake. Minutes 10-40: digestion is underway and amino acids begin entering circulation, especially from the faster-digesting whey fractions. There is no stimulant rush here; the benefit is physiological rather than sensory. Over the next few hours, the real advantage is that you have already secured a 24g complete protein feeding instead of leaving recovery to chance. Days 1-7: the biggest win is convenience and compliance. Weeks 2-4: if this helps you consistently hit total daily protein, that is when the payoff shows up in more reliable recovery, better training continuity, and improved support for lean mass retention or growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Ingredients\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtein\u003c\/strong\u003e — 24g — Clinically relevant protein feeding for recovery and lean mass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhey Protein Isolate\u003c\/strong\u003e — Amount not disclosed — Leaner whey fraction for fast, efficient amino acid delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhey Protein Concentrate\u003c\/strong\u003e — Amount not disclosed — Complete whey protein with satisfying texture and everyday usability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydrolyzed Whey Protein Concentrate\u003c\/strong\u003e — Amount not disclosed — Pre-digested whey peptides for lighter post-workout use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCalcium\u003c\/strong\u003e — 80mg — Adds a modest bone-mineral contribution from dairy protein\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSodium\u003c\/strong\u003e — 20mg — Keeps the formula notably low in sodium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow much protein does Commissary Whey provide per serving?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach serving provides 24g of protein.

Across available web research, the product is consistently described as a 100% whey protein isolate formula intended to support muscle recovery, lean muscle retention, and a smoother post-workout experience. Multiple retailer and review sources report that it combines whey isolate with added electrolyte minerals and digestive enzymes, giving it a recovery-focused angle instead of competing purely on protein grams alone. Reported macros generally place it in the lean-protein category, with roughly 23-25 grams of protein per serving and relatively low carbohydrate and fat content depending on flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes ProtoLyte stand out in category discussions is the inclusion, according to brand and third-party writeups, of TRAACS chelated minerals such as magnesium, calcium, potassium, and chromium, plus digestive support and amino acid-related recovery claims. That gives it a distinct identity: not just a protein powder for hitting macros, but a post-training product aimed at recovery, hydration balance, and easier digestion. In practical terms, that means the formula is likely most appealing to lifters, physique-focused athletes, and active adults who want a lean isolate with a bit more utility than a bare-bones whey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom a sports nutrition perspective, the whey isolate category itself is well supported by research for post-exercise muscle protein synthesis and day-to-day protein intake. A serving in the mid-20-gram range is broadly aligned with common evidence-based protein targets for recovery in many adults. The added minerals and enzyme support are part of the product's brand story, although their exact amounts and full context should be viewed carefully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: Full supplement facts panel not available for independent dose verification.

Post-workout is the most obvious fit because that is where fast, easy protein is most commonly used. If your goal is body composition, mixing with water can help keep calories lower. If your goal is overall intake and satiety, blending it with milk, oats, fruit, or yogurt may make more sense. Because the full label is not independently verified here, users should review the current packaging for exact serving instructions, allergens, and storage guidance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to Expect\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn day one, the biggest difference is usually practical: an easy way to raise protein intake without a heavy meal. Within the first week, users typically notice whether the shake fits their digestion, routine, and appetite better than previous proteins. Over several weeks of consistent use, the value comes from better protein adherence, more reliable post-workout recovery nutrition, and easier support for training goals. Like any protein supplement, ProtoLyte is not something you \"feel\" like a stimulant product; the benefits are cumulative and routine-driven.

The core of the product is straightforward and sound: 25g of premium whey protein built around isolate and hydrolyzed whey fractions according to available product research. That matters because isolate and hydrolyzed whey are prized for fast gastric emptying, rapid amino acid delivery, and a lower lactose burden than standard whey concentrate formulas. In practical terms, this is the type of protein you choose when you want a shake that digests quickly, supports recovery, and does not sit heavily in the stomach after training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe main performance driver here is still the protein. A 25g serving of high-quality whey lands right in the research-backed range commonly used to stimulate muscle protein synthesis in most adults after training. Whey is especially rich in essential amino acids and naturally leucine-dense, which is why it remains the gold-standard protein source for post-workout use. What you notice from that is not a stimulant “hit,” but a more recoverable next session: less nutritional guesswork, easier total daily protein intake, and a more efficient bridge from training stress to muscle repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen there are the lean-support add-ons: CLA and L-carnitine. L-carnitine has the stronger evidence base of the two. Mechanistically, it helps shuttle long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria for oxidation and also helps maintain metabolic flexibility by buffering the cellular acetyl-CoA to CoA ratio. Research support for L-carnitine is broad, with over 148 clinical trials and 17 meta-analyses, and useful doses typically fall around 500-2,000mg daily depending on the form and goal. The problem here is transparency: the product includes L-carnitine, but the exact amount is not disclosed in the verified formula data available to us. So the ingredient is scientifically credible, but we cannot honestly confirm whether this formula delivers a fully effective dose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCLA is the weaker piece of the formula from an evidence standpoint. It is heavily marketed in physique products because it influences PPAR signaling involved in lipid metabolism, and in animal models it can produce dramatic anti-adipogenic effects. In humans, the story is far less impressive. Across dozens of trials and multiple meta-analyses, CLA has shown inconsistent and often clinically small fat-loss effects, with some concerns around insulin sensitivity in certain contexts. Studied doses generally fall in the 3,200-6,400mg range, and again, this product does not disclose how much CLA is actually present. That means this ingredient should be treated as a secondary marketing-facing inclusion unless proven otherwise by a full Supplement Facts panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe synergy logic is simple: fast protein for recovery and muscle retention, with L-carnitine and CLA added to support a “stay lean while you recover” positioning. That is a reasonable concept. The limitation is that only the protein dose is transparent. Compared with fully disclosed premium proteins, this formula gives you confidence in the protein payload but not enough clarity to clinically validate the added lean matrix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat to expect: day 1, you get a light, easy-to-use whey protein with a strong 25g protein hit. Over 2-4 weeks, the real results come from consistently using it to meet daily protein targets and preserve muscle while dieting. Any added benefit from CLA or L-carnitine is possible in theory, especially from L-carnitine, but the undisclosed dosing keeps those benefits in the “potential bonus” category rather than the reason to buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25g Premium Whey Protein — this is the foundation of the formula and the reason the product makes sense. A 25g whey serving sits directly in the research-backed range commonly used to stimulate muscle protein synthesis after training, especially when total daily protein intake is being prioritized during a cut or recomp phase.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIsolate + Hydrolyzed Whey Positioning — available product research indicates the protein system is built around rapidly digesting whey fractions. That usually means faster amino acid delivery, a lighter stomach feel, and a better fit for post-workout use than lower-cost, concentrate-heavy proteins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLean-Focused Formula Strategy — this is not just a plain whey with a generic fitness label. Muscle Sport added CLA and L-carnitine to shift the product toward body recomposition, targeting customers who want recovery support while staying tight rather than a simple mass-gainer profile.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eL-Carnitine Included — mechanistically, L-carnitine helps shuttle long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria for oxidation and supports metabolic flexibility. It also has one of the stronger evidence bases among physique-support ingredients, with more than 148 clinical trials and 17 meta-analyses behind it, even though the exact dose here is undisclosed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCLA Included — CLA is one of the most researched fatty acids in body-composition supplements, acting through PPAR-related pathways involved in lipid metabolism. The important reality is that human outcomes are inconsistent and often modest, so this should be viewed as a secondary support ingredient rather than the hero of the formula.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtein-First, Not Hype-First — the formula works best when you evaluate it honestly. The disclosed 25g whey dose is the clinically meaningful part; the lean matrix is a supporting concept whose true value depends on undisclosed ingredient amounts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent Fit for Cutting Phases — when calories are lower, every shake needs to earn its place. A fast-digesting 25g whey serving helps protect lean mass and makes daily protein compliance easier without forcing a heavier meal when appetite or schedule is limited.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLikely Easier Digestion Than Basic Whey Blends — isolate and hydrolyzed whey formats are commonly chosen because they digest quickly and are often better tolerated than standard whey concentrates. That matters for users who train hard but hate the bloated, sluggish feeling some proteins create.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUseful for Post-Workout or Between Meals — because the protein is fast and efficient, this is not just a gym-only product. It also fits the customer who needs a high-quality protein feeding between meals to keep intake high without resorting to bars or full meal prep.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore Physique-Oriented Than a Standard Isolate — many proteins stop at macros. This one at least attempts to address the body-composition side of the equation with CLA and L-carnitine, which makes the formula concept more aligned with leaning out than with indiscriminate calorie loading.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHonest Limitation: Incomplete Active Disclosure — the product does not provide enough verified dosing detail on CLA and L-carnitine to compare them confidently to clinical research ranges. That is important because it separates what is proven in this formula—the protein—from what remains promising but unconfirmed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Better Buy for Disciplined Users Than Shortcut Seekers — customers who understand that protein consistency drives the outcome will get the most from this formula. If you want a protein powder that supports a leaner program, this works; if you want a hidden fat burner, the formula is not transparent enough to make that claim.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Is This For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhysique athletes in a calorie deficit who need a protein powder that helps preserve muscle while keeping digestion easy. The 25g whey protein serving is the real workhorse here, and the added CLA plus L-carnitine align with a leaner-body-composition goal rather than a mass-gain formula profile.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifters using moderate-volume hypertrophy splits who want a post-workout shake that absorbs quickly and does not feel heavy. Whey isolate and hydrolyzed whey are ideal when you want rapid amino acid delivery after training without the thicker, slower feel common in more concentrate-heavy blends.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBusy professionals trying to stay lean while keeping protein intake high across a chaotic schedule. This formula gives them a convenient, efficient protein anchor, and the inclusion of L-carnitine makes the product conceptually better suited to recomposition phases than a plain whey alone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAthletes sensitive to bloating from lower-quality proteins who still want strong protein density per serving. Iso-hydro style proteins are typically chosen specifically because they digest faster and are often easier to tolerate than cheaper whey blends built heavily around concentrate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting-phase bodybuilders who need a clean post-training protein to support recovery without turning to a full meal immediately. The value here is getting 25g of premium whey quickly, while the lean-positioned support ingredients fit the mindset of staying tighter during prep or mini-cuts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral gym-goers transitioning from meal replacement thinking to evidence-based protein use. This formula makes most sense for users who understand that the protein is the primary driver of results and the added CLA and L-carnitine are supporting ingredients, not substitutes for diet adherence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse one serving at the time of day when it best helps you hit your total protein target. For most people, the ideal use case is post-workout, because fast-digesting whey isolate and hydrolyzed whey are especially practical right after training when you want efficient amino acid delivery without a heavy meal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMix it in 8-14 ounces of cold water for a lighter, faster-digesting shake, or use milk if you want a creamier texture and do not mind slightly slower digestion. A shaker bottle usually works best for whey-based powders; colder liquid generally improves texture and drinkability. If you are new to protein powders or have a sensitive stomach, start with a partial serving to assess tolerance, especially if dairy products sometimes bother you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis product can also be used between meals when your food intake is falling short. Taking it with a carb-containing meal or post-workout feeding may also make more sense for the L-carnitine component, since carnitine support tends to pair well with insulin-mediated nutrient uptake. It stacks naturally with creatine monohydrate, electrolytes, and a separate whole-food-based meal plan. There is no need to cycle it, because protein is a daily nutritional input, not a stimulant or hormone-support ingredient. Store it tightly sealed in a cool, dry place to protect texture and flavor quality over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to Expect\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMinutes 0-10: you notice whether the shake mixes smoothly and how light it feels in the stomach. Because this is built around premium whey rather than a heavy meal-replacement style profile, the experience should be relatively clean and easy to digest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMinutes 10-40: there is no stimulant rise or dramatic acute sensation here. What happens is nutritional rather than sensory—the protein is being digested and amino acids are becoming available for recovery, especially useful if you have just trained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHours 1-4: this is where the product does its main job, helping cover a high-quality protein feeding without digestive drag. Days 1-7: the biggest win is compliance—more days hitting your protein target and fewer missed recovery opportunities. Weeks 2-4: if the product is used consistently during a cut or recomp phase, the meaningful benefit is better muscle retention, better nutritional structure, and potentially some added support from L-carnitine. Any noticeable body-composition effect beyond that will still depend far more on total diet and training than on the undisclosed-dose lean matrix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Ingredients\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePremium Whey Protein\u003c\/strong\u003e — 25g — Fast, high-quality protein for recovery and lean muscle retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLA\u003c\/strong\u003e — Amount not disclosed — Included to support a leaner body-composition formula profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eL-Carnitine\u003c\/strong\u003e — Amount not disclosed — Supports fat transport into mitochondria for cellular energy use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow much protein does Muscle Sport Lean Whey Iso-Hydro provide per serving?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe verified formula shows 25g of premium whey protein per serving.
