WPC also has more lactose, this is why those who have sensitivities to lactose often choose WPI as their protein source. WPC has a full amino acid profile, making it one of the best protein sources on the planet.

HOW TO USE WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE POWDER (WPC)
WPC is Ideal for weight loss
With a high protein percentage, low fats and low carbohydrates, whey protein concentrate is an ideal supplement to assist with maintaining a lower carbohydrate diet, which will reduce your calorie intake, allowing you to burn your fat stores as your primary energy source. WPC protein powder can be very effective in assisting weight loss by combatting hunger pains through a saturation effect, meaning you feel fuller for longer because of the digestion speed at which WPC passes through your stomach.
WPC is Ideal for muscle gain
Since Whey Protein Concentrate has a full amino acid profile, rich in BCAA’s, WPC is highly effective at repairing and building muscle tissue after strenuous exercise. WPC is also one of the most bioavailable protein sources, so you can be assured that you are going to absorb most of the protein in your shake, as opposed to many other forms of protein which your body can not absorb very well, this is why a high-quality WPC shake after training is great for muscle growth. Consuming WPC throughout your day will also allow you to hit your daily protein consumption required for muscle growth much easier and cheaper.
Great for sports performance
With all sports, there is a level of muscle breakdown which occurs, but this is particularly true for resistance sports such as weight lifting, contact sports and martial arts. For this reason, it is essential to fuel your body after training with high-quality protein to allow your body to start the repair and growth process faster, to get you back to peak performance quickly, stronger and faster than you were yesterday. This is who Whey Protein Concentrate is so important for athletes, as WPC triggers your body’s repair process quickly and more effectively than most other protein sources.

For all choc based flavours, we choose to use natural cocoa powder without anti-caking agents. Because of that you may notice small lumps of dark cocoa in all chocolate based flavours.
Dark Choc: Although we use 100% organic and natural cocoa powder in our chocolate-flavoured protein powders, it's important to note that the amount of cocoa powder used is significantly lower than what's typically found in dark chocolate. As a result, our protein powders won't provide the same level of antioxidant benefits associated with consuming dark chocolate.

About WPC
What's better, WPC protein or WPI?
When it comes to WPC protein vs WPI, both offer high-quality protein. Liquid whey is collected as a by-product of cheese manufacturing and depending on the processing steps, whey protein concentrate or whey protein isolate are produced. Why concentrate powder consists of up to 80% protein, and the rest is carbohydrates and fats. Whey protein isolate powder, on the other hand, contains 90% or more protein.
In our case, VPA WPI consists of approximately 90% protein, with almost no carbs and fats. It’s also 99% lactose-free, making it a great option for lactose-intolerant people as opposed to WPC. However, WPC protein powder is a more economical option. So when it comes to WPC protein vs WPI, you should opt for WPC if you’re looking to achieve almost similar results in a more affordable way. Therefore, VPA protein is the best Australian-made protein powder out there.
When should I take WPC?
Although WPC protein can technically be consumed at any time, it is best taken directly after training to aid in your recovery, and through the day as a snack or when you need to supply your body with additional protein, such as the day after a big workout. We do not recommend consuming WPC protein powder directly before any exercise, as it may make your stomach upset, please consume at least 45 before exercising to allow the WPC to digest.
What makes VPA WPC better than other plant-based protein powders?
-
We’re Australian-owned and operated, and only use the highest quality WPC protein.
-
We’re lab-tested by an independent company to ensure our protein powders and ingredient profiles are as good as we promise them to be. We are one of the very few supplement companies that do this and publish our results on our website (see ‘Lab Testing’ tab on this page).
-
With reputable high-level athletes and ambassadors on our VPA® team who use our WPC daily, you can rest easy knowing you have the best quality whey protein powder the Australian market can offer.
-
We’ve designed our supply chain to include Australian products and ingredients, and our warehouse structure to sustainably get our products to you quickly with a reduced carbon footprint.
-
Best flavour guarantee – we believe protein powder should have the best BCAA profile possible and taste amazing at the same time. So, if you don’t Love it, just return it.
-
100% Flavour Happiness Guarantee– we believe protein powder should be enjoyed and not endured, that’s why we have spent so much time and energy to ensure our flavours are the best in the industry. Love it or return it.
Does the “Flavour Happiness Guarantee” apply to VPA WPC?
Yes, our WPC protein powder is one of our most popular products with some of our customer's favourite flavours, making VPA a top Australian-made protein powder company.
Can anyone use VPA WPC?
Yes, VPA® WPC is safe for anyone to consume. In fact, most baby formulas use WPC protein as their main ingredient.
However, if you have dairy/lactose intolerance we recommend you use our WPI (99% lactose-free) or our Premium Plant. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please ask a medical professional such as a GP or dietitian before using WPC protein powder.
Questions & Answers
What is the protein content of WPC?
VPA Premium Whey protein concentrate has 24 grams of protein per serving size of 30 grams of WPC protein powder. Our whey protein 1 kg packs have 33 servings.
How is Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC) manufactured?
The process of obtaining WPC protein begins with the removal of water from pasteurised skim milk. As previously explained, milk contains two major proteins: casein and whey. Casein, the primary protein, makes up about 80% of the total protein content, while whey accounts for around 20%. Below is a summary of the typical method for manufacturing WPC powder. First, the milk is pasteurised for a short time and then held overnight. Next, the mixture undergoes the cheese-making process, producing curds and liquid whey. The liquid whey is drained through a stainless steel screen, and the remaining curd is cut. The whey liquid is then filtered, reducing it to one-fifth of its original volume, resulting in a whey concentrate that is approximately 80% protein. The final WPC protein is spray-dried to produce whey protein powder. VPA Australia WPC is processed using proprietary ultra-filtration techniques, resulting in undenatured, high-quality soluble whey proteins.
What are the benefits of using Whey Protein Concentrate?
Reduce muscle loss and enhance recovery: Years of research have shown that supplementing with milk proteins, particularly whey proteins, can reduce muscle loss due to their high L-leucine content (Walzem et al., 2002). Additionally, the high L-glutamine content helps restore energy efficiently after intense workouts, improving recovery.
Increase strength and muscle growth: Boire et al. demonstrated that men participating in resistance training programs while supplementing with whey proteins showed greater improvements in strength compared to those using resistance training alone. This is mainly due to the high Branched Chain Amino Acid (BCAA) content in whey protein. The quality of a protein for enhancing muscle mass and strength is closely related to its leucine content.
Enhance protein synthesis - Whey proteins can contain up to 26% BCAA, which are efficient substances for synthesising new proteins. Leucine acts as a signalling molecule for the initiation of protein synthesis.
Increase bioavailability of essential amino acids - Research found that the amino acid profile in individuals’ dietary proteins influences their nitrogen utilisation. This means poor quality dietary protein intake has been shown to increase nitrogen losses and limit protein synthesis, therefore ingestion of whey proteins containing high essential amino acids can reduce nitrogen losses (Boire et al, 1997).
