The label gives salt rather than sodium, so sodium_mg is null. Leucine (8.1 g per 100 g) and BCAAs (16.7 g per 100 g: leucine 8.1, isoleucine 4.4, valine 4.2) come from the brand's amino acid profile and were scaled to the 25 g serving. The brand claims 'more than 4 grams of BCAA per serving'. Added free amino acids per serving: L-glutamine 1,320 mg (5.3%) and L-arginine 248 mg (1.2%). The protein figure may include these, so protein_pct_by_weight could overstate intact whey. Chocolate ingredients: instant whey protein isolate 84% (whey protein isolate, soy lecithin), L-glutamine, fat-reduced cocoa powder, flavouring, L-arginine, salt, xanthan gum, sucralose, acesulfame K. Other flavours vary: yogurt powder, beetroot powder, acids, and colours including ammonia caramel and Ponceau 4R; the Cookies & Cream flavouring contains caffeine. The flavourings are not specified as natural or artificial. Contains milk and soy, and is made in a plant that also handles egg, peanuts, nuts, celery, fish, crustaceans and sulphites. Brand claims: gluten free, sugar free and palm oil free. No third-party certification is stated. The page lists serving counts of 28 (700 g), 80 (2000 g) and 160 (4000 g) but none for the 1.816 kg pack. Brand store prices are €79.90 (1.816 kg), €37.50 (0.7 kg) and €3.10 (25 g). No USD price was verified.
