For Weight Management

Research from over 25 high-quality clinical trials found that supplementing your diet with proteins from milk (like whey, casein, and other dairy protein supplements) can result in greater weight loss, greater fat loss, and higher retention of lean mass. 1

Controlling Hunger Starts With Proteins From Milk

If you’ve made a change to your diet, you know how hard it can be to feel full or satisfied on less food or different kinds of food. Consuming proteins from milk, such as whey, before or with a meal increases satiety 2, which can make you feel fuller, longer, to help you curb cravings in between meals.

Proteins from milk have been found to help people lose weight without losing muscle or bulking up. They can also help you achieve greater results such as a greater loss of fat mass and overall body weight, and improvement in body composition 3, even with minimal or no exercise 4.

Using proteins from milk for weight management can:

Achieve improved body composition to help you tone, not bulk up. 5 6

Result in significant decreases in waist circumference. 7

Optimize the results from a reduced-calorie diet and exercise program by increasing fat loss, in particular abdominal fat. 8

Boost metabolism by increasing lean muscle mass 9 and stimulate muscle protein synthesis better than plant proteins.

Promote weight loss by making you feel fuller, longer. 10
