Evowhey Protein: a whey protein for everyone
Evowhey Protein from SportSeries is our go-to whey protein with great flavor: a Whey Protein Concentrate, or concentrated whey protein, made for anyone who wants to add proteins to their diet in a convenient, easy way, with a really good taste.
The concentrated whey protein is obtained from whey, separated from casein during cheese making, and processed using filtration systems that concentrate its protein fraction.
It’s a protein from milk from pasture-fed cows, with a complete amino acid profile and a formula designed to whip up shakes, recipes, or quick combinations anytime during the day.
Why Evowhey is one of the most chosen proteins at HSN
Whey Protein Concentrate: practical, versatile, and easy to use
Evowhey mixes easily, travels without any hassle, and you can use it at different times of the day: around your workout, for breakfast, between meals, or to round out a meal that’s low in protein.
If you prefer a no-flavor option so you can mix it with cocoa, fruit, coffee, cinnamon, or flavorings, you can also get Whey Protein Concentrate 100%, the unflavored version of WPC.
No added amino acids: the declared protein content is real
Evowhey doesn’t contain added amino acids to artificially inflate its protein value. Its contribution comes from the whey protein used in the formula.
This approach, known as amino-spiking, involves adding nitrogen compounds so the apparent protein value is higher. We don’t do that with Evowhey: whey protein is already complete on its own.
About 80% protein in the raw material
The WPC we use starts from a raw material with around 80% protein, a common reference value for whey concentrate intended for food use.
If in some flavors you see values like 77 g of protein per 100 g and not 80 g, it’s because aromas, sweeteners, cocoa, or other flavor ingredients also take up space in the formula. The difference per shake is usually small, so our recommendation is to pick the flavor you enjoy most.
Cocoa-flavored options may have a slightly lower protein content because they need a higher proportion of cocoa powder. That’s why at HSN we show the specific nutritional information for each flavor, so you can compare with total transparency.
High biological value and reference PDCAAS
The following table summarizes the biological value and the PDCAAS of Evowhey Protein compared to other common protein sources.
| Protein source | Biological value | PDCAAS |
|---|
| Evowhey Protein | 104 | 1 |
| Whole egg | 100 | 1 |
| Milk | 91 | 1 |
| Casein | 77 | 1 |
| Meat | 80 | 0,9 |
| Soy | 74 | 0,9 |
| Pea | 65 | 0,69 |
| Rice | 83 | 0,47 |
These data help explain why whey protein is one of the most used protein sources when you’re looking for a complete, convenient, and high-quality protein nutritionally.
Complete amino acid profile, with no added amino acids
Evowhey has a complete amino acid profile because proteins are naturally made up of amino acids. This doesn’t mean amino acids were added to the formula; it just reports the natural profile of the whey protein.
Also, each flavor has its corresponding nutritional information, including the amino acid profile when applicable, since the values can vary slightly due to the nature of the dairy raw material itself.
Evowhey Protein: a protein for different routines
A good-quality protein powder doesn’t have to be limited to just one goal. Evowhey can fit both a strength training phase and a more general routine of healthy eating, as long as it’s part of a varied diet that fits your needs.
If you’re looking for an option with less fat and sugar, you can consider the isolated version Evolate 2.0 (Whey isolate CFM). If you want a flavored whey protein that’s versatile and easy to enjoy, Evowhey is a very well-rounded choice.
When to take Evowhey Protein
You can take Evowhey at the time of day that best fits your routine. It’s common to use it before or after training, but you can also add it to breakfast, use it between meals, or use it to round out a meal that’s low in protein. The important thing is that your total daily protein matches your needs and the rest of your diet.
What flavor to try from its 50+ options
Evowhey stands out for its variety of flavors. You’ve got sweeter options, dessert-style flavors, chocolates, coffees, fruits, and more classic profiles for anyone who wants an easy shake that’s a pleasure to repeat.
- If you prefer sweeter flavors: Banoffee, caramel, cookies, or custard cake.
- If you’re after less sweet flavors: double chocolate or milk coffee.
- If you want to try very HSN flavors: Caribbean vanilla, turrón, or pistachio.
If you’re not sure where to start, pick smaller formats or try the Evowhey Protein tasting pack. That way you can discover your favorites before choosing bigger formats.
If sweet proteins aren’t your thing, a practical option is to combine the unflavored WPC with powdered flavorings, so you can adjust the intensity of the flavor to your taste.
Frequently asked questions about Evowhey Protein
How much Evowhey can I take per serving and per day?
It depends on your protein needs, the rest of your diet, and the time you use it. You can start with the amount listed on the instructions for use and adjust it based on your goal, your digestive tolerance, and your total protein intake for the day.
Do I need a shaker to prepare Evowhey?
Not necessarily, but it’s the most convenient way to get a smooth, lump-free shake. You can also use a blender or beaters.
Can I mix Evowhey with other drinks or cook with it?
Yes. You can mix it with water, milk, plant-based drinks, lukewarm coffee, smoothies, or recipes like pancakes, oatmeal porridge, and cakes. If you add it to very hot drinks, mix it first with a small amount of cold or lukewarm liquid to avoid lumps and improve the texture.
What’s the raw material used for Evowhey Protein?
Whenever possible, we work with Fonterra WPC450. In specific cases, an equivalent European raw material may be used, verified by HSN to keep the product’s nutritional and sensory standard. You can find more info in the blog article: What Raw Material Is Used in Evowhey Protein?.
Do the flavors that contain instant coffee have caffeine?
The amount of caffeine in coffee flavors is residual. Coffee is used for its aroma, color, and taste—not as a stimulating ingredient.
Is Evowhey a good protein to take before bed?
You can take it before sleeping without any problem. Still, if you’re looking for a protein specifically meant for nighttime use, you can consider the caseins, thanks to their slower-release profile.
Can I combine Evowhey and creatine in the same shake?
Yes. Evowhey and creatine are compatible and can be taken the same day, in the same serving, or in the same shake.
Do I need to combine Evowhey with other proteins or amino acids to improve it?
No. Evowhey is a complete protein and doesn’t need added amino acids or other protein sources to enhance its nutritional profile.
What is Evowhey lecithin and why is it included?
Sunflower lecithin is used to improve how the protein disperses in liquid and to make shake preparation easier. In Evowhey we use sunflower lecithin, not soy lecithin, to avoid the soy allergen in the composition.
Why do you add sweeteners to Evowhey?
Sweeteners help you get sweet flavors without adding extra calories. In Evowhey, they’re used in very small amounts, and the sugar present comes naturally from the whey protein.
