Fat-free protein powder

Fat-free protein powder is a dietary supplement in powder form that contains a high concentration of pure protein, with almost no fats or carbohydrates. This ingredient is widely used in healthy cooking recipes, especially in preparations aimed at increasing protein intake, such as shakes, desserts, breads, and energy bars.

Fat-free protein powder is typically made from various sources, such as whey, soy protein, egg, or plant-based proteins like pea or rice. Its origin is linked to the sports supplementation and functional nutrition industry, where it was developed to help athletes and individuals with specific protein needs incorporate protein into their diet in a practical and efficient way.

Among its main properties, its high biological value stands out, which contributes to muscle repair and growth, promotes satiety, and supports metabolism. As it contains no fat, it is ideal for those looking to control caloric intake and improve body composition. Furthermore, it is an excellent option for preparing recipes with low-fat content without sacrificing nutritional value.

In various Spanish-speaking countries in the Americas, this ingredient may also be found under names such as proteína en polvo sin grasa, proteína en polvo aislada, proteína pura en polvo, or simply proteína aislada, depending on the source and manufacturing process.
