Iso-FUJI Clear

Iso-Fuji CLEAR is Yamamoto Nutrition’s innovative protein formula, the new light and refreshing version of our best whey protein isolates: Iso-Fuji, in a clear and light protein drink that tastes like lemonade, fresh peach tea or a melon drink, whilst providing high-quality protein.

The CLEAR version of Iso-Fuji is formulated using the highest quality whey protein isolate, with a very high biological value and naturally rich in all essential and branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), perfect for contributing to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass (1).

Unlike traditional whey isolates, Iso-Fuji CLEAR is a light and refreshing protein concentrate, very different from the classic creamy, milky-tasting protein shake: Iso-Fuji CLEAR produces a clear, easily digestible and refreshing drink, in lemon, peach or melon flavours, much more like a juice or soft drink and perfect for hot days.

Despite its different flavour and texture compared to traditional Iso-Fuji products, Iso-Fuji CLEAR is still a whey protein isolate: a complete, high-quality protein with very little sugar and fat, perfect for supplying your muscles with protein and easily meeting your protein requirements (2).

By using a different production process, it is possible to produce this type of protein, which has a freshness and texture unlike any other type of whey. Depending on the flavour chosen, Iso-Fuji CLEAR tastes like lemon juice, peach iced tea or a melon drink.

Protein is important because it aids and supports muscle building, helps maintain muscle mass, and contributes to our feeling of fullness. Iso-Fuji CLEAR is an innovative and light alternative for those seeking a refreshing, high-quality source of protein: as the name suggests, Iso-Fuji in the ‘CLEAR’ version is a clear protein, free from the traditional milky taste of other whey proteins, and certainly very versatile.

Thanks to its high biological value, due to its rich composition of essential and branched-chain amino acids (EAAs and BCAAs), Iso-Fuji CLEAR can be used by all athletes and fitness enthusiasts before and after training, but also as a refreshing protein drink by anyone wishing to ensure a good protein intake throughout the day.

But why do I need protein?

Proteins are one of the three macronutrients essential for our body’s health. Even before we consider their role in sport, they are indispensable for the body to function properly. Proteins, in fact, contribute to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass, have a structural function (i.e. they help repair and build tissues), but they also form hormones and enzymes, act as transporters and, in the form of antibodies, play a role in immune functions. Ensuring you meet your protein requirements is therefore important for a healthy life. This is why a protein drink can be a functional addition to your routine, whether you’re training or not: because it supports muscle mass and optimises recovery, as well as general well-being (3).

How does Iso-Fuji CLEAR differ from traditional Iso-Fuji protein?

Unlike the classic Iso-Fuji, a whey protein isolate, the production technology used for the CLEAR version of Iso-Fuji produces a whey protein isolate that is still complete and rich in EAAs and BCAAs, but which does not retain the typical flavour and texture of milk. Unlike the classic, creamy, milk-flavoured Iso-Fuji, Iso-Fuji CLEAR is a clear, light and refreshing drink, similar to lemonade or iced tea, easily digestible and retaining all the nutritional properties of a classic whey isolate.

Iso-Fuji CLEAR is for you if…

• You don’t particularly fancy eating something solid or don’t like the classic texture of traditional protein shakes;

• You want to support muscle recovery and growth with a fresh, light drink;

• You want a quick and convenient alternative to maximise your post-workout recovery;

• You prefer refreshing, clean flavours, reminiscent of juices or drinks.
