100% GRASS-FED WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE

EVERY SERVING OF FARM FED CONTAINS 22 GRAMS OF PROTEIN COMING SOLELY FROM 100% GRASS-FED CROSS-FLOW MICRO AND ULTRA-FILTERED WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE. WHEY IS A NATURALLY OCCURRING PROTEIN THAT’S FOUND IN DAIRY PRODUCTS, SUCH AS MILK, AND IS PRODUCED AS A BYPRODUCT OF CHEESE MANUFACTURING. WHEY PROTEIN CAN BE FURTHER PROCESSED TO FORM EITHER WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE OR ISOLATE.

FARM FED ONLY USES WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE (WPI) IS BECAUSE IT’S AT LEAST 90% PROTEIN, WHEREAS WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE (WPC) CONTAINS ANYWHERE FROM ~30 TO 80% PROTEIN. IN OTHER WORDS, WPI IS THE PUREST FORM OF WHEY PROTEIN ON THE MARKET.

FURTHERMORE, WPI IS EXTREMELY LOW IN LACTOSE, A MILK SUGAR THAT CAN CAUSE GASTROINTESTINAL ISSUES, FAT, CARBOHYDRATES, AND CALORIES. WHEREAS, WPC CONTAINS MUCH HIGHER AMOUNTS OF FAT, SUGAR, CARBS, AND CALORIES. SINCE WPC IS CHEAPER THAN WPI, THE MAJORITY OF PROTEIN POWDERS CONTAIN THAT AS OPPOSED TO WPI. ESSENTIALLY, IT’S A CLEVER WAY FOR OTHER BRANDS TO CUT COSTS, BUT THAT GOES AGAINST EVERYTHING AXE & SLEDGE BELIEVES IN.

INSTEAD OF CREATING ANOTHER LOW-QUALITY PROTEIN POWDER, AXE & SLEDGE SOURCED THE HIGHEST QUALITY WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE THAT WE COULD FIND. OUR PREMIUM WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE COMES FROM COWS THAT ARE 100% GRASS-FED AND NOT TREATED WITH ANY SYNTHETIC HORMONES OR ANTIBIOTICS, SUCH AS RBST OR RBGH.

SINCE GRASS-FED COWS ARE GENERALLY HEALTHIER THAN GRAIN-FED COWS, THEY PRODUCE MUCH HIGH-QUALITY MILK. GRASS-FED WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE MAY BE MORE EXPENSIVE, BUT TO US, IT’S WORTH EVERY PENNY SINCE OUR CUSTOMERS ARE GETTING A SUPERIOR PRODUCT.

FARM FED IS NATURALLY RICH IN ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS AND BRANCHED-CHAIN AMINO ACIDS, WHICH ARE PARAMOUNT FOR MUSCLE GROWTH. FURTHERMORE, FARM FED IS EASY TO DIGEST AND RAPIDLY ABSORBED, MAKING IT THE PERFECT SUPPLEMENT FOR POST-WORKOUT TO FUEL RECOVERY.

DIGESEB®

DIGESEB® IS A PROVEN AND EFFECTIVE ENZYME BLEND DEVELOPED BY SPECIALTY ENZYME & PROBIOTICS. DIGESEB® IS INCLUDED IN FARM FED TO SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE THE DIGESTION AND ABSORPTION OF ALL THE NUTRIENTS. DIGESTIVE ENZYMES ARE ESSENTIAL FOR DIGESTIVE HEALTH AND SUPPLEMENTING WITH THEM CAN REDUCE THE RISK OF GASTROINTESTINAL ISSUES, SUCH AS GAS, BLOATING, AND HEARTBURN.

HERE’S AN OVERVIEW OF THE SUBSTRATE THAT EACH ENZYME HELPS BREAK DOWN:

• AMYLASES - BREAKS DOWN STARCHES (COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES)
• LACTASE - BREAKS DOWN LACTOSE (MILK SUGARS)
• PROTEASES - BREAKS DOWN PROTEIN
• LIPASE - BREAKS DOWN LIPIDS (FATS)
• CELLULASE - BREAKS DOWN CELLULOSE (A POLYSACCHARIDE IN PLANTS)

SINCE FARM FED USES A 100% GRASS-FED WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE, YOU SHOULD HAVE NO GASTROINTESTINAL ISSUES. BUT IN CASE YOU CONSUME OTHER FOODS ALONGSIDE FARM FED, THEN THESE ENZYMES WILL ENHANCE THE DIGESTION PROCESS.

PAPAIN

TO COMPLEMENT THE DIGESEB®, FARM FED ALSO HAS PAPAIN, A PROTEOLYTIC ENZYME THAT’S NATURALLY FOUND IN PAPAYA. PAPAIN WILL FURTHER HELP BREAK DOWN THE PROTEIN SUPPLIED BY FARM FED INTO INDIVIDUAL AMINO ACIDS AND PEPTIDES SO IT’S EASIER FOR THE BODY TO DIGEST, ABSORB, AND UTILIZE. THIS IS YET ANOTHER INGREDIENT THAT SETS FARM FED APART FROM THE COMPETITION.

OTHER INGREDIENTS

THESE INGREDIENTS ARE USED IN SMALL AMOUNTS TO IMPROVE THE FLAVOR, MIXABILITY, AND CONSISTENCY OF FARM FED:

• NATURAL FLAVORS
• DEXTROSE (SWEETENER)
• SUCRALOSE (SWEETENER)
• MEDIUM CHAIN TRIGLYCERIDES (CREAMER)
• XANTHAN GUM (THICKENING AGENT)
• SUNFLOWER LECITHIN (EMULSIFYING AGENT)

KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS LIST WILL VARY SLIGHTLY FROM FLAVOR TO FLAVOR. FOR EXAMPLE, THE CHOCOLATE MILKSHAKE FARM FED WILL ALSO HAVE COCOA POWDER.
