Avvatar could be a relatively newer whey product manufacturer but its parent brand has stayed in the dairy industry for more than two decades now. Coming from the iconic house that gave India some of the most memorable dairy brands like Gowardhan and Go, Avvatar surely gets a great start. The brand has already launched several whey derived products and today, we will look into their advanced formulation called Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein.
Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein has been made using premium quality whey protein isolate and offers 29 grams of it with every serving. It also has significant portions of naturally occurring BCAA and EAA. The product label states that the product has been formulated to help people boost their protein intake while keeping low on the carb. With this detailed review, we will evaluate the product and highlight its strengths and shortcomings so that you can make a wise choice when it comes to you health.
Nutrition Profile
Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein has been made using ‘Freshest and Purest’ form of 100% whey protein Isolate. Each serving of 35 grams gives you 29 grams of fresh whey protein isolate to help in muscle synthesis and recovery. This gives the product a protein concentration of around 82% which is great and offers an optimum boost to your daily protein intake.
BCAA and EAA: Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein is a member of the Absolute series and hence promises superior quality and concentrations. The entire manufacturing process has been optimized to yield whey isolate that is naturally high in BCAA (Branched Chain Amino Acid) and EAA (Essential Amino Acid). Every serving of 35 grams has 6.5 grams of BCAA and 6.5 grams of other EAAs. 13 grams of total EAAs is extremely good for people who are aiming for faster recovery and lean growth.
Glutamic Acid: Just like EAAs and BCAAs, glutamine too is required by people who are into regular and exhaustive work outs. Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein offers 4.9 grams of glutamic acid which is good.
Sweetening Agents: Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein has been formulated to help people have protein without burdening the diet with carb. Hence, the product has been kept devoid of any added sugar. There is an approved agent called Acesulfame Potassium which is calorie free artificial sweetener.
Calcium: This is a very crucial mineral for people who are into body building. It is required to improve and strengthen the skeletal structure. Each serving of this supplement gives 138 mg of calcium.
The other components per serving:
Energy: 130 kcal
Total Fat: 1 gram with 0 trans fat
Cholesterol: 2.8 mg
Carbohydrates: 1 gram
Sugars: 0 grams

In addition to the above mentioned ingredients, the product also has some permitted stabilizers (INS 415 and INS 417) as well as Sunflower lecithin. The label specifically states that the product is Soya Free, Gluten Free and good for people who are Lactose Intolerant. Overall, the product’s nutritional profile is good.
Taste
The product label specifically states that Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein has been formulated to give you ‘great taste’ and ‘great mixability’. The reason cited for this is the freshness of the cow milk cheese used to procure whey. The remaining is taken care of by natural and permitted artificial flavours used. This absolute supplement is available in Cardamom and Chocolate flavours. The preliminary research has shown that the flavours are being positively accepted. With not a lot of brands offering cardamom flavour, this could become a USP for Avvatar.
Effectiveness
As per the label, the product has been designed to be a high protein and low carb supplement. It is a potent source for the calorie conscious and athletes who want to pack lean muscles. Every serving of Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein gives 29 grams of 100% whey protein isolate with 13 grams of EAAs. This concentration is definitely sufficient to boots muscle recovery and lean growth after a workout. Initial data that we have been able to gather shows that most of the users have described the product as effective and healthy.

Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein Side Effects
Our initial research and product feedbacks have not crossed paths with users facing difficulties with the product. It is also soya and gluten free. As of now, the product has come across as safe.
Due to the 3-level filtration process almost all the lactose has been extracted from the product making it safe for lactose intolerant people. However, people allergic to milk should avoid it or at least consult the physician before having it.
Price/Value:
Avvatar Absolute Isorich Whey Protein is available in 1 and 2 kg jars. A 1-kg jar costs around Rs. 3000 and offers 29 servings (one serving is 35 grams). Hence, cost per serving comes to around Rs. 103. Although the product is promising, this price tag can be its greatest downfall.
