MuscleBlaze is probably the nation’s favourite for its variety and quality of products. Whey proteins, mass gainers, amino acids, protein bars, cereals etc. the brand has everything that a health enthusiast would need to get a great physique. Today, we are going to looking into one of their power packed products, MuscleBlaze Hydro Whey.
Muscle Blaze Hydro Whey contains hydrolysed Whey Protein Isolates. Every serving gives 24 grams of high quality whey protein. The product also contains digestive enzyme complex DigeZyme. The company has called the product a ‘superlative protein supplement’ and is aimed at lean muscle mass enhancement. Let us see just how true to the cause the label claims are.
Nutrition Profile
Hydro Whey contains Hydrolysed Whey Protein Isolates which is the brand’s highest quality protein (as per the product label). Every serving of 30 grams of Hydro Whey gives a user 24 grams of purest quality protein for increasing endurance and stamina thus supporting exhaustive workouts and muscle gain. The protein content of the product is therefore 80%, which is reliable.
Hydrolysed Whey Protein Isolate: As we all know, Whey Protein Isolate is the purest form of protein. The protein concentration in whey isolate is 90% and above. It is highly bioavailable but takes some time for the body to metabolize it and supply the much-needed protein to the muscles. To tackle this situation, MuscleBlaze has partially hydrolysed Whey Protein Isolate to have a product that is easier for metabolism. Protein is thus absorbed into the blood stream and made available to the worn out muscles at a much faster pace.
DigeZyme: This complex contains a mixture of 5 digestive enzymes – protease, amylase, lactase, cellulose and lipase. This blend further enhances the body’s ability to break down protein and make it available for absorption and utilization.
BCAA and EAA: MuscleBlaze Hydro Whey contains high quality protein that is naturally rich in BCAA (Branched Chain Amino Acid) and EAA (Essential Amino Acid). Every serving of 30 grams offers 11.28 grams of EAA which has 5.3 grams of BCAA. These together are required to fasten the recovery process after a workout and boost lean muscle growth.
Glutamic Acid: It is a non-essential amino acid whose requirement increases significantly in athletes. It plays a critical role in protein synthesis and uptake. Hydro Whey offers 4.2 grams of Glutamic Acid per serving.
Sweetening Agents: Hydrolysed Whey Protein Isolate tends to develop a bitter taste. To tackle this, MuscleBlaze has artificial sweeteners. First is Acesulfame Potassium which is famed to be a calorie free artificial sweetener. Another sweetener is Sucralose. The product does not contain any added sugar.
The other components per serving:
Energy: 112 kcal
Total Fat: .0.75 grams with 0 trans fat
Carbohydrates: 2.4 grams
Cholesterol: 23 mg
With fat and calorie count so low, the product indeed is for people who want to up the protein intake without a calorie load. The nutrition profile of Hydro Whey is good.
Taste
As we mentioned above, the company has paid special attention towards making the product palatable. The bitter taste has been rectified with sugar less and calorie less sweeteners and nature identical flavours. It is available in Delicious Chocolate and French Vanilla flavours. Users have shared their experience saying that the product tastes good. One user reported that the chocolate taste was mild while another one said it tasted like Bornvita. Users have also specified that the product has great mixability. Overall, the audience has responded positively to its taste.
Effectiveness
The whole idea behind hydrolysing isolate is to fasten protein metabolism for quicker results. Going by the theory, yes it should serve the purpose of boosting the body with 24 grams of protein. However, users have given a mixed response towards the effectiveness of this product. Some users have called it the best whey that they have ever used and that Hydro Whey showed good results or was as expected. However, some users also reported that they did not see any muscle gain with its usage and that it was an average product.
Quality
The company procures its raw materials from the best resources in the USA. The final manufacturing and packaging takes place in India. Every container comes with a non-duplicable code that is unique to that container. A buyer simply needs to send that code on the SMS number provided to check authenticity of the product. One can also check the protein report of the batch issued by NABL on MuscleBlaze website. So the quality of the product seems legit.
Side Effects
Whey Proteins often come associated with gastric problems like bloating. Partially hydrolysed whey is easy on the stomach. Furthermore, the digestive blend DigeZyme makes digestion all the more easier. Hence, the product does not have major side effects associated with it. Only a handful of users have reported stomach problems. Majorly it has been accepted as safe.
Price/Value:
MuscleBlaze Hydro Whey is available in 0.5 kg, 1 kg and 2 kg jars. A 1-kg jar has priced somewhere around Rs. 3000 and offers 33 servings (one serving is 33 grams). Hence, cost per serving comes to around Rs. 91. Now frankly speaking for 24 grams of protein (protein profile of 80%), Rs. 91 is a bit harsh. You do have competitors out there who are much more economical and offer the same.
