For Athletes & Gym-Goers
One Ingredient. Zero Compromise.
You read every label at the grocery store. Why accept 25 ingredients in your protein? Primal Core is grass-fed whey — and nothing else. 24g of clean protein per sachet, designed for athletes who refuse to put junk in their body.
The Problem
Most Protein Powders Are Ultra-Processed Food.
Flip the label on your current protein. Chances are you'll find sunflower lecithin, xanthan gum, sucralose, acesulfame-K, artificial flavoring, and seed oils. That's not clean fuel — that's processed food disguised as a health product. Your training deserves better ingredients.
Why Athletes Choose Primal Core
Clean Fuel for Serious Training
24g Complete Protein
Full amino acid profile with high leucine content — the key trigger for muscle protein synthesis. Each sachet delivers what research shows is the optimal per-meal dose.
Grass-Fed, Pasture-Raised
Sourced from grass-fed cows — better omega-3 to omega-6 ratio, higher CLA content, and no hormones or antibiotics. Quality in, quality out.
Dissolves Like Cream
No gums or emulsifiers means it blends smoothly into coffee, smoothies, or water. No chalky residue, no clumping, no gritty aftertaste.
Bioactive Compounds Intact
Unlike isolate, our concentrate retains immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, and growth factors. These support immune function and gut health — critical for heavy training.
Gym-Bag Ready
Individual nitrogen-sealed sachets. TSA compliant. No measuring scoops, no spillage, no bulky tubs. Just tear, pour, shake.
Zero Junk
No seed oils. No artificial sweeteners. No thickening gums. No soy lecithin. One ingredient means zero digestive compromise.

Questions
Athlete Protein FAQ
How much protein do I need to build muscle?+
Research consistently shows 1.6–2.2g of protein per kg of body weight per day is optimal for muscle growth. For an 80kg athlete, that's 128–176g daily. Distribute this across 4–5 meals with 25–40g per sitting to maximize muscle protein synthesis (Morton et al., British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2018).
Is whey concentrate or isolate better for athletes?+
For overall health and performance, grass-fed whey concentrate is superior. While isolate has slightly more protein per gram (90% vs 80%), concentrate retains immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, and growth factors stripped during isolate processing. These bioactive compounds support immune function, gut health, and recovery — critical for athletes training at high intensity.
Why does most protein powder cause bloating?+
The bloating isn't from whey — it's from the 10–25 additives most brands use: artificial sweeteners (sucralose, acesulfame-K), thickening gums (xanthan, guar), soy lecithin, and seed oils. Primal Core contains exactly one ingredient: grass-fed whey protein concentrate. No additives means no GI distress.
Can I put Primal Core whey in hot coffee?+
Yes — it's designed for it. Most protein powders clump in hot liquids because of gums and fillers that react to heat. Primal Core is pure whey with no additives, so it dissolves smoothly into espresso like cream. The result is a protein cappuccino with 24g protein and zero chalky taste.
When should I take protein for muscle recovery?+
The "anabolic window" is wider than once thought — 2–3 hours post-workout is ideal, but total daily protein intake matters more than exact timing (Schoenfeld et al., 2013). That said, a fast-absorbing whey shake within 60 minutes of training is still best practice for kickstarting recovery.
Are protein sachets practical for athletes?+
Individual 30g sachets solve the biggest problem active people face: consistency. Toss one in your gym bag, desk drawer, or carry-on. Each sachet is nitrogen-sealed for freshness and TSA/EU security compliant. No bulky tubs, no measuring scoops, no excuses for missing your protein target.
Your Training Is Clean. Your Protein Should Be Too.
One ingredient. Zero junk. Grass-fed whey that works as hard as you do.
