protein isolate
Pure extracted nutrient
A protein isolate is a highly refined form of protein powder, processed to remove most fats, carbohydrates, and other components, leaving a product that is typically 90% or more protein by weight.
Common forms include whey isolate and soy isolate: She switched to whey isolate because regular protein powder upset her stomach.
The term distinguishes these purer products from protein concentrates, which retain more of the original food's other components.
