The major layer of this bar contains the majority of the protein and is called the Elite Protein Blend. It is constructed of four different protein types. First there is Hydrolyzed Whey Protein Isolate. This type is one of the most sought after proteins because it is already partially broken down. That allows your body to quickly absorb it and put it to work. It’s also a rich source of branched chain amino acids (BCAA). These are great for muscle building and repair. The other three types of protein in this layer are: Whey Protein concentrate, Milk protein Isolate, and Soy Protein Isolate.This layer hits the body quickly and provides a large protein source that will last throughout your workout. The chocolate coating that wraps around the soft flavored center also contains Whey Protein Concentrate
