Shadowhey Concentrate - 23g whey protein per scoop, 66 servings
DY Nutrition Shadowhey Protein Concentrate delivers 23g of protein per 30g scoop at 116kcal, with 1.6g of carbohydrates, 1.8g of fat and 1.5g of sugar. The protein source is whey protein concentrate. The 2kg tub provides 66 servings across multiple flavours.
Whey protein concentrate provides a complete essential amino acid profile with naturally occurring BCAAs - typically 5-6% leucine content which supports post-exercise muscle protein synthesis signalling. At 23g protein per 30g scoop the density is solid for a concentrate, with the remaining mass accounted for by residual lactose and fat from the whey stream. The low sugar content at 1.5g reflects a well-processed concentrate with minimal added sweeteners.
Shadowhey WPC is the entry-level protein in the DY Nutrition range, designed to deliver clean whey concentrate performance under the Dorian Yates brand without the premium of the hydrolysate or isolate variants. At 66 servings from a 2kg tub it provides good daily-use run-rate value. The product is straightforward: quality whey concentrate, clean macros, multiple flavours.
Built for regular gym-goers who want a reliable daily whey protein for post-workout use and between-meals protein top-up. Not optimised for cutting phases where fat and lactose minimisation is prioritised - the isolate variant suits those needs better. Contains milk and soy lecithin. Produced in a facility that handles milk, soy, egg and gluten.
