Summer is a great time to get healthy. Think fresh fruit, home made smoothies, Greek salad, ice cold water and... uhh, ice cream?
Wheyhey is a new brand that are making ice cream the healthy way. Made with high quality protein, zero sugar and all natural ingredients, you'd think that things couldn't get much better. They do. The ice cream is also low in fat, whilst being both carbs and gluten free. It's even suitable for vegetarians and diabetics.
The mini 22g pots are the perfect guilt-free alternative to your usual ice cream or unhealthy snacks. Wheyhey is not only great for a post workout protein top-up but it's also good for anyone who is simply wanting to watch their weight or lead a healthy lifestyle. I'm a bit (a lot) of a snacker myself, so this is the perfect find for me.
The Science Part
Protein is made up of amino acids, 9 of which are essential. This basically means that the body can't produce them itself- the only way that we can get them is through the food and drink that we consume. They help your body to repair and develop bone and muscle tissue, repair vital cells and also, to support the endocrine system (the one that takes care of all of your hormones)!
Whey Protein Isolate is what Wheyhey is made out of (hence the name), which is 100% natural, great for your body, easily digested and absorbed super quickly by our systems. What's more, it contains all 9 of the essential amino acids! Find out a little more about the science behind Wheyhey here.
I've tried the vanilla and strawberry flavours so far and I wasn't disappointed at all! Now I just have chocolate left to tick off of my list... There's also natural, blueberry and coconut push up frozen yoghurt pops coming soon too!
To top things off, dreamy supermodel David Gandy is the face if the brand. Need I say more!
So, what do you think? An ice cream that we don't need to feel guilty about. In fact, an ice cream that we can actually feel good about. I'd say that this one's a winner all round... Wheyhey!!! (sorry, I couldn't help myself) xx
