We’ve all been there, 2 a.m. and craving something sweet, something savory, anything to munch on for a midnight snack. We all know it’s not good to eat so late at nigh, but what many people don’t know are the ways to suppress hunger pangs with a healthier, less filling alternative: protein. Or even healthier still, whey protein.
Protein is the nutrient that tells the brain you've had enough to eat, said Dr. Michael Tamber, an endocrinologist at The Everett Clinic.
Some protein-rich shakes can even help you lose weight when used as meal replacements, but many are laden with calories and sugar.
The ideal protein shake contains between 100 and 150 calories, at least 10 grams of protein and no more than 2 grams of fat, he said.
Sugar should be low, which he defined as less than a few grams. Artificial sweeteners and sugar alcohols used for flavorings, such as sorbitol, are both fine.
Comparing the most popular protein shakes, it seems Designer Whey protein products, are the best overall for taste, nutritional value, and cost.
Sold at GNC stories, Designer Whey protein powder
is marketed to athletes who want to gain lean mass and lose fat. It comes in a
mammoth 2.1-pound container. Because it's 97 percent lactose-free, it's
suitable for most people with lactose intolerance. It mixes easily with a
spoon; no blender is needed, according to the directions.
Nutrition: The product contains 100 calories, 2 grams of fat, no fiber and 18 grams of protein per serving when mixed as directed.
Flavors: The product comes in chocolate and French vanilla.
Cost: $34.99 for a 2.1-pound container; 87 cents a serving.
Taste: Designer Whey tastes like a glass of not-too-sweet chocolate milk.
What the doctor says: It's low in calories, fat and sugar, and almost entirely made up of protein. This product would work as a meal replacement. Research keeps proving the benefits of whey protein in sports performance, muscle recovery, digestion and weight control.

About Whey Protein & Designer Whey
Whey protein has been called the ultimate functional food. The revolutionary benefit of Designer Whey® products is the utilization of whey, a protein-rich liquid component of milk produced as a by-product of the cheese-making process.
Since 1993, NextProteins has pioneered the manufacture of a full line of branded consumer whey-based products. Next Proteins, Inc. manufactures the industry's best selling protein, Designer Whey®, which powers the company's innovative, great tasting products such as Designer Whey® Protein2GO and Designer Whey Lite & Lean protein powders.

I do. Probably the most popular of the high-protein, low carb diet craze that swept the nation just a few years ago. The diet claims that by drastically reducing carbs and eating more protein and fat, our bodies naturally lose weight by burning stored body fat more efficiently. The diet also claims that the best proteins to eat are red meat, chicken and fish, which no doubt, worked for a lot of people. Many "Atkiners" saw the pounds drop quickly, but developed more long-term health problems, like high cholesterol. Studies by the American Heart Association, the National Cholesterol Education Program, and the American Cancer Society show that high protein diets (consisting of red meat, whole dairy products, and other high fat foods) are linked to high cholesterol. Furthermore, some studies linked high cholesterol levels to an increased risk of developing heart disease, stroke and cancer. However, there is a healthier choice of protein for any diet, high-protein or otherwise, which has been proven to have many benefits for men and women of all ages. That choice is the whey protein diet. Made from cow's milk, whey protein is a pure, all-natural, high-quality product that contains little to no fat, lactose or cholesterol and is a rich source of essential amino acids. Whey protein provides innumerable benefits to athletes and dieters, boosts the immune system, helps bone strength and improves overall wellness. As time goes by, new studies on whey protein continue to verify and amplify its positive benefits. Currently, whey protein is regarded by a growing number of people to be beneficial in cardiovascular health, athletic strength and the proper growth of infants and toddlers. Since 1993, NEXT Proteins has invested over $9.8 million in Research and Development of whey protein products. And with a wide variety of products like whey protein powder, drinks and shakes, Designer Whey products have been in use for many different purposes, from anti-aging, to disease prevention, to sports performance, to muscle building, to better digestion, and of course, weight loss.

Research has proven the benefits of whey protein powder are numerous and studies continue on a monthly basis. Whey protein contains the highest amount of branch chain amino acids (BCAAs) found in nature. BCAAs are a key source of energy during exercise; they are an integral part of muscle metabolism because they are the first amino acids to be used during intense resistance and endurance training.
Due to its high BCAAs content it is not surprising that the most convincing benefit from whey protein is lean muscle preservation. Other benefits of whey protein include, but are not limited to:
ü increased immunity
ü bone health
ü possible reduction of cancer tumor size
ü decreased blood pressure
ü lowered blood cholesterol levels
ü reduced occurrences of sarcopenia (degenerative loss of skeletal muscle mass)
ü optimized infant protein nutrition
ü improved cognitive functioning (mental performance)
ü initiated protein synthesis
ü controlled control hunger
ü managed weight
ü lengthened stamina
ü enhanced power
ü accelerated recovery
ü amplified metabolic rate
The dietary supplement industry was the first to launch whey protein powder, with the industry leader being DESIGNER WHEY®. They discovered that adding B-Vitamins helped with the assimilation of protein and the foremost and only company to specifically design whey protein to be the best it could possibly be.
As the flagship of the whey protein powder industry DESIGNER WHEY® researched the benefit of moisture stable L-Glutamine and were initial company to add it to the product. They were the originators of adding combinations of Magnesium, Zinc and Vitamin B6, which proved to increase strength and recovery. To this day they remain the only company to add whey calcium to aid in bone health and body re-composition.
Research has shown that when protein is broken down into smaller peptides they are most effectively absorbed by the body, giving you more nitrogen availability than free form amino acids. They were also the first to research, develop and add whey peptides, which are partially pre-digested whey protein.
Whey is very versatile and can be added to a wide range of foods to boost protein. Innovators at DESIGNER WHEY® experimented with whey in many different food compositions trying everything from brownies to pancakes, smoothies, soups, and spaghetti sauce. These findings were compiled in a very successful whey protein recipe book that was published and provided to their consumers.
It was DESIGNER WHEY®'s groundbreaking passion that pioneered the first ready-to-drink whey protein to mass market, launching a revolutionary 40 grams of protein. They continue to bring the benefits of whey protein powder to consumers through innovative and revolutionary products.

Whey protein is a natural byproduct from enzyme and acid produced cheese making. Whey protein is a component of all mammalian milk. The percentage of protein in cow's milk is 3.75%. The total protein content is made up of 80% casein protein and 20% whey protein. During the cheese making process coagulation of the casein protein begins, this is the curd, and what's left is a liquid stream of whey. In years past, whey was viewed and used as a waste product and sprayed back onto farmer's crops to add nitrogen back into the soil.
Sometime in the early 80's it was discovered that whey was a very high quality protein, unique in its amino acid content and biologically active. It was quickly discovered that whey outperformed the gold standard protein, egg white. In fact, on the biological value scale, which measures how much protein consumed is actually absorbed or retained and used by the body, egg white is 100 and whey is 107, so whey really is the gold standard for high protein quality. Whey, in its raw liquid form, contains lactose, fat and cholesterol. So before spray drying if somebody consumed whey protein it also meant one would take in a significant amount of lactose and fat.
Sometime in the mid-80's two processes were discovered that could concentrate the protein content of the liquid stream, then spray dried to remove the water. One was ion-exchange and the other was micro-filtration. Both these methods consisted of removing the non-protein components so they could be spray dried into a highly concentrated whey protein powder. Two whey protein powders were named: Whey Protein Concentrate and Whey Protein Isolate. Whey Protein Concentrate has a protein content of about 80% and Whey Protein Isolate has a protein content of 90%. New technology developed in 2005 can now isolate whey protein in excess of 95%.
Whey protein is a complete protein, which means it contains all the essential amino acids needed for muscle growth and repair from stressful events, i.e. resistance training, endurance training, life-stressors. Whey is made up of many protein fractions. The main two are Beta-Lactoglobulin and Alpha-Lactalbumin. These two proteins alone make up 75% of the protein content in whey. Other protein fractions include Glycomacropeptide, Lactoferrin, Bovine Serum Albumin, Immunoglobulins, Lactoperoxidase, Lysozyme, Relaxin, Gamma-globulins, Lactollin and B-Microglobulin. However, new fractions will be discovered with the progression in new protein isolation techniques.
DESIGNER WHEY® was first to present all the science and benefits of highly bioactive whey protein. They were also the first to do three clinical, university studies on DESIGNER WHEY® versus regular whey protein.
