What is Grass-Fed New Zealand Whey Protein Concentrate?
Grass-fed New Zealand whey protein concentrate is considered to be the finest quality undenatured whey protein concentrate supplement on the market today, and rightfully so. Whey protein in general, is derived from cow’s milk, and is obtained when the milk separates and begins to turn into cheese. The milk separates into solids (curds) and a liquid, which is where much of the whey is found. The liquid is then filtered, pasteurized, and processed etc, until you are left with the protein powder supplement that you know and love. The main issue with whey protein concentrates however, is that they only provide around 80% protein per serving, leaving the remaining 20% consisting of fats and carbohydrates. Most cows are also fed grains that provide little nutrition, and are often tainted with fertilizers and pesticides. The cows are also often injected with hormones, so as you can imagine, the milk they provide is not going to be quite as fresh and healthy as you would like. New Zealand grass-fed cows however, graze on lush green natural pastures, they are allowed to roam freely, they aren’t injected with hormones, and the milk they provide is therefore much healthier, and therefore provides a much better quality, hormone-free whey protein powder.
How does it work?
This whey protein concentrate works in the same way as various other protein supplements currently on the market, albeit in a slightly better way. Protein plays a vital role in protein synthesis and post-workout recovery, making this a fantastic bodybuilding supplement. After we train, our muscles and muscle cells have no energy, proteins, or nutrients required for growing and repairing themselves. The whey protein however, fixes that and replenishes these natural energy stores, whilst initiating protein synthesis in which new muscle proteins are synthesized, making it perfect for post-workout recovery. The protein also helps regulate hormone levels, it boosts the metabolism, it strengthens the immune system, and much more besides.
What are the main benefits of Grass-Fed New Zealand Whey Protein Concentrate supplements?
New Zealand Whey Protein has numerous benefits shown below:
- Undenatured whey protein
- Free from hormones and antibiotics.
- All cattle that our New Zealand Whey Protein comes from is grass-fed.
- Unflavoured NZ Whey is all-natural and contains no added sweeteners or flavours.
Some of the other main benefits associated with grass-fed New Zealand whey protein concentrate supplements, include:
Muscle growth
Obviously the primary benefit of any protein supplement is the fact that it helps the body to build new muscle tissue to replace existing damaged tissues.
Top quality protein
Another key benefit associated with grass-fed New Zealand whey protein concentrate, is the fact that the protein is far superior to other generic whey protein concentrate supplements, because the cows are so healthy, are so well looked after, and are allowed to graze on lush green grass, just as nature intended. The end result is a much purer, much tastier, and much healthier milk, which is used to create a much healthier protein supplement.
Convenient
Another benefit of these supplements is the fact that they are so convenient and can easily allow individuals to increase their protein intakes, which in turn will help them to meet their daily protein macronutrient requirements, without the need for eating large quantities of food.
Other benefits include:
- Helps build muscle
- Great for post-workout recovery

- Helps increase the metabolism and energy levels
- Tastes great
- Rich in nutrients
- More protein per serving
- Can increase strength levels

- And more...
How and when should it be consumed?
For optimal results, experts recommend consuming 1 – 3 protein shakes per day, and on training days, to ensure that one of the three servings comes immediately following your workout. Simply add one 30g scoop to your beverage of choice, shake well, and enjoy.
Health Canada Recommended Dose (powder): Adults: 1 Scoop(s) 1 time(s) per day. Mix product well in 1-2 cups of liquid (water, juice, etc.) immediately before consumption. Store in a cool, dry place.
Grass-Fed New Zealand Whey Protein Concentrate VS Whey Concentrate
The main difference between whey protein concentrate, and grass-fed New Zealand whey protein concentrate, is the fact that the cows are much healthier than regular cattle, because they constantly graze on lush green New Zealand grass, as opposed to being fed mass-produced grains that are full of chemicals and artificial additives. The end result is a much purer protein that contains more nutrients. A regular whey concentrate will be around 80% protein per serving, sometimes less than that, whereas grass-fed whey concentrates from New Zealand, can be as high as 90% which is very impressive for a concentrate.
What can it be stacked with?
As whey protein is a popular bodybuilding supplement, a popular bodybuilding supplement stack could consist of: a multi-vitamin, an Omega 3 supplement, BCAAs, Creatine Monohydrate, Dextrose, and Casein Protein.
