Xtend = Free form (meaning not in peptitde bound or 'joined together') Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's) and L-Gluatmine. Requires no digestion/breakdown in the digestive tract.
Whey Protein = A 'complete' & 'whole' (as in whole food) protein source. Has all the 8 Essential Amino acids (which the BCAA are 20-25%) the 12 Non Essential Amino Acids (which L-Glutamine is 15%)which makes it a 'complete' source. The Amino acids are peptide bound which makes them a 'whole' form of protein. It requires to be digested/broken down in the digestive tract.
So as you can see you don't really need to consume BCAA's. Dairy protein is 20-20% BCAA and Meat's contain 18-205 BCAA. The Whey protein is a useful tool if you struggle to consume the total amount of protein your require per day.
