<p dir="ltr">You check the label. It says “grass-fed.” You think you’re getting the cleanest, most nutrient-rich protein possible.</p> <p dir="ltr">But here’s the truth: in the U.S., that label can mean almost nothing. Loopholes, grain finishing, inconsistent nutrient profiles, even hidden contaminants. And if you’re using that protein daily? You’re building your results on a shaky foundation.</p> <p dir="ltr">In this episode, I break down the real difference between UK/Irish pasture-raised whey isolate and most U.S. “grass-fed” protein. You’ll learn why sourcing, animal welfare, and processing methods matter for muscle growth, fat loss, recovery, and long-term health.</p> <p dir="ltr">We’ll talk nutrient density, bioactive fractions, contamination risks, sweetener choices, and how to spot marketing tricks designed to make cheap protein look premium. I’ll show you exactly what I use, why I use it, and how to make sure your protein works with your health, not against it.</p> <p dir="ltr">No fillers. No hype. Just facts you can use to choose better, recover faster, and perform longer.</p> <p dir="ltr">Listen in. Then upgrade your protein.</p> <p dir="ltr">What's Discussed:</p> <p dir="ltr">00:01 – Why “grass-fed” on the label might not mean what you think</p> <p dir="ltr">03:01 – The hidden factor that makes UK whey stand out</p> <p dir="ltr">10:44 – The sweetener choice that could sabotage your results</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Thank you to our sponsors: </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">NAD + Cell Shield from Biostack Labs <a href="https://biostacklabs.com/kris">https://biostacklabs.com/kris</a> </p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">BiOptimizers - code KRIS10 for 10% off  <a href="https://bioptimizers.com/">https://bioptimizers.com/</a> </p> </li> </ul> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">My Go-To Protein:<br> UK Pasture-Raised Whey Isolate from Unmatched Supplements → <a href="https://www.unmatchedsupps.com/">https://www.unmatchedsupps.com/<br> <br></a></p> <p dir="ltr">Find more from Kris:<br> <br></p> <p dir="ltr">Website: <a href="https://www.krisgethin.com/">https://www.krisgethin.com/</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/krisgethin/">https://www.instagram.com/krisgethin/</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Youtube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/krisgethin">https://www.youtube.com/krisgethin</a>  </p> <p><strong>2 Shred: <a href="https://www.unmatchedsupps.com/products/2shred?srsltid=AfmBOop1JyRYFWIrLJ_dfa-ljisBdgvNmX5ihZh1K3uprkc9V4ZbACGe"> https://www.unmatchedsupps.com/products/2shred</a></strong></p>
