Shadowhey Hydrolysate - 21g rapid-absorption hydrolysed whey + HMB

DY Nutrition Shadowhey Hydrolysate delivers 21g protein per 25g scoop at 93kcal, with 0.61g carbs and 0.51g fat. Hydrolysed whey provides faster-absorbing peptides versus intact whey. Each serving includes HMB 208mg, D-aspartic acid 208mg, lactase enzyme 5mg, iron 11.7mg and zinc 8.3mg. The 2kg tub provides 90 servings.

Hydrolysed whey has a faster gastric emptying rate than intact whey concentrate or isolate, resulting in earlier peak plasma amino acids post-exercise. This is most relevant in the immediate post-workout window for athletes with the highest protein synthesis demands. HMB (beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate) is a leucine metabolite studied for reducing muscle protein breakdown, particularly during high-training-frequency phases. D-aspartic acid is an amino acid involved in testosterone synthesis pathways. Zinc at 8.3mg (83% NRV) contributes to normal protein synthesis and the maintenance of normal testosterone levels. Lactase enzyme supports digestion of residual lactose for individuals with lactose sensitivity.

Shadowhey Hydrolysate is the premium tier in the DY Nutrition protein range - the additional processing cost of hydrolysation plus the integrated HMB, DAA and mineral additions positions it above the concentrate and isolate variants for athletes who prioritise recovery speed and want performance co-ingredients without separate capsule products. At 90 servings from a 2kg tub the cost per serving is balanced against the enhanced formula.

Built for advanced athletes, bodybuilders and physique competitors who want the fastest-absorbing whey format with integrated recovery and hormonal support co-ingredients. Not the right choice where cost-per-gram of protein is the primary criterion. Contains milk. Produced in a facility that handles milk, soy, egg and gluten.

Alternatives: Applied Critical Whey 2.2kg (24g/130kcal, WPI-led blend) for a premium isolate-first whey without hydrolysate pricing, or THP Ultimate Whey Isolate (25.6g/105kcal) as a clean isolate comparable.

Key Benefits

Fastest Absorbing Protein

Enzymatically pre-digested Hydrolysed Whey Protein is absorbed more rapidly than standard whey, making it the optimal post-workout protein choice.

Added HMB

208mg HMB per serving helps reduce exercise-induced muscle protein breakdown, supporting lean muscle retention during cutting or intense training phases.

Ultra Low Carb

Just 0.76g carbohydrates and 0.73g fat per serving makes Shadowhey Hydrolysate ideal for strict cutting phases or low-carb dietary approaches.

Improved Digestibility

Lactase Enzyme improves digestion of residual lactose, reducing bloating and discomfort for those sensitive to standard whey protein products.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I use DY Nutrition Shadowhey Protein Hydrolysate?

The best time to use DY Nutrition Shadowhey Protein Hydrolysate depends on the format and the rest of your routine, but most people get more from it when it sits in a consistent daily or around-training slot. Consistency usually matters more than chasing a perfect time.

What makes DY Nutrition Shadowhey Protein Hydrolysate a practical option?

DY Nutrition Shadowhey Protein Hydrolysate is practical because it is built to help you keep daily protein intake on track without adding much friction to the rest of the day. That ease of use is often what makes a product stay in the routine long enough to be worthwhile.
