Proteins play a crucial role in our health and especially in building muscle. They are the building blocks of our body and are necessary for the repair and growth of tissue. During exercise, tiny tears occur in the muscle fibres, which are repaired and strengthened by amino acids derived from proteins. This leads to muscle growth, which is very important for all people.
Proteins also offer other health benefits. They can stabilise blood sugar levels, which is particularly important for diabetics. Proteins also contribute to satiety, which can help control appetite and therefore make it easier to lose weight. They can also lower blood pressure and improve blood lipid levels, which reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. The recommended amount of protein varies depending on age, gender and physical activity. However, for physically active people, especially those who do strength training, the requirement can increase to 1.5 to 2.0 grams of protein per kilogramme of body weight to cover the increased need for muscle repair and growth.
Important: Food supplements are only ever a supplement to a balanced and healthy diet and a healthy lifestyle.
It is easy to lose track of all the different More Proteins. There are often many questions about more proteins.
- Which protein powder before or after training?
- At what time do I need which more protein?
- Which More Protein is lactose-free?
- Are the More Proteins vegan?
- How quickly is the protein absorbed by the body?
Whether More Protein (Total Protein), More Clear Protein, More Vegan Protein (Total Vegan Protein) or the Vegan Clear Protein. All More Proteins have their raison d'être with very specific benefits.
For example, the whey concentrate is produced by ultrafiltration - a process in which liquid whey is pressed through a filter and then dried. Whey isolate, on the other hand, is obtained by crossflow microfiltration - a particularly gentle filtering process. The difference therefore lies in the different filtration processes and therefore also in the nutritional profile, i.e. the protein, fat and lactose content.
In addition, the More Proteins all have a different absorption rate.
The illustration below summarises all the important differences between the More proteins.
Quick reminder: Proteins support you in building muscle, but also in maintaining it, e.g. if you are on a diet, and also contribute to longer satiety. We recommend that you consume 1.5 g to 2 g of protein per kg of body weight every day.
Goals and individual requirements
Everyone has different goals and requirements. The differences between the products are therefore explained below. You can find more detailed information about the product on the product page. This is linked to the respective product.
Muscle building
Proteins contribute to the gain and maintenance of muscle mass, so it is essential to ensure your daily protein intake. In principle, any of our protein powders can fulfil this purpose.
More Protein (Total Protein)
Our team has developed a delicious protein powder that meets your protein needs and optimally supplies your muscles. With a blend of whey and casein, we offer you the best milk proteins. Thanks to added lactase, our More Protein is also suitable for people with lactose intolerance.
Our More Protein combines the benefits of whey and casein in an ideal mix. The casein content ensures a creamy consistency and binds liquid perfectly. Studies referred to by Lyle McDonald in "The Protein Book" show that whey quickly releases leucine and stimulates muscle protein synthesis, while casein keeps leucine levels constant for seven hours and inhibits muscle breakdown. This combination of whey and casein is superior to the isolated administration of both proteins, as current studies have shown. This is why we rely on this proven mixture for our protein powder.
More Protein can be taken at any time of the day. Another advantage: the casein content of More Protein makes it ideal for baking.
More Protein Iced Coffee
This unique blend of real coffee and high-quality protein provides a perfect energy boost and up to 95% less sugar than conventional instant iced coffee. With 19g of protein per serving and a range of delicious flavours, it's ideal for on the go or as a high-protein morning snack. Enjoy the delicious caffeine kick and boost your protein intake.
Please note that the More Protein Iced Coffee (except the Decaff variant) contains caffeine.

More Clear Protein
Our More Clear Whey Isolate is the ideal choice for anyone who would rather enjoy a refreshing drink than a creamy shake before, during or after training. Perfect for anyone who wants to meet their daily protein requirements in a tasty and light way. Whether you don't like the consistency of classic protein powders or are simply looking for a change - our More Clear Whey Isolate offers you fruity protein drinks that provide your body with an optimum supply of protein.
This whey isolate powder is fat-free, lactose-free and sugar-free and is available in many fruity flavours. With a high protein content of 24 g per 500 ml shake (4.8 g per 100 ml) and only 99 kcal per 500 ml shake (20 kcal per 100 ml), it optimally supports your muscle building and provides you with all valuable amino acids.
More Vegan Protein (Total Vegan Protein)
Our vegan protein powder offers intense flavour, excellent solubility and a high protein content. Even without milk protein, you get high-quality protein powder without compromise. Thanks to the high-quality ingredients and selected plant-based protein sources, our powder provides all amino acids and plenty of protein. Depending on the variety, we use different plant proteins such as soya, pea, pumpkin seed and sunflower protein to ensure an optimum supply of protein and amino acids. As a result, the protein powder contains a complete amino acid profile.
More Clear Glow Peptides
More Clear Glow Peptides is a protein drink that contains high-quality protein isolate. What makes it special: More Clear Glow Peptides combines the ingredients of More Skin Glow for the skin, tendons, ligaments, joints and cartilage with a protein isolate. This provides optimum support for muscles, skin and joints. The product is virtually fat-free, lactose-free and gluten-free. It also contains hyaluronic acid for your skin.
Fat loss and diet
When dieting, you want to save as many calories as possible. It can therefore make sense to switch from a More Protein to a More Clear Protein when dieting. This saves a few calories, as a few grams of fat and carbohydrates are eliminated.
We would recommend the following more proteins in a diet. Of course, a calorie deficit is always a prerequisite.
- More Clear Protein
- More Vegan Clear Protein
- More Protein
- More Vegan Protein
- More Clear Glow Peptides
Vegan
Are you vegan and want to cover your protein needs? Then we have some vegan products on offer.
We recommend this article first: Food supplements for vegans.
The following vegan protein products are suitable for you:
With our vegan products, we make sure that the products have a complete amino acid profile. This allows you to optimally supply yourself with all essential amino acids.
Lactose intolerance
We are aware that not everyone can tolerate lactose. That's why we have lactose-free proteins in our range. The More Protein contains 30k FCC per 100g of lactase. The lactase is dosed in such a way that it neutralises the amount of lactose contained in the powder plus the amount recommended for preparation with milk, for example.
The following products are recommended for lactose intolerance:
- More Protein
- More Clear Protein
- More Vegan Protein
- More Vegan Clear Protein
- More Clear Glow Peptides
Gluten intolerance
The question often arises as to which protein powder is gluten-free. In principle, most of our protein powders are gluten-free. However, some varieties contain chunks or other additives. These pieces and additives may contain gluten. In principle, you will always find a detailed list of the individual ingredients (allergens are marked in bold) in the shop with the respective product under the item description and optionally also as a PDF file for download.
These products may (as of 28.6.24) be gluten-free. It depends on the respective variety. Please check the ingredients for allergens in advance:
- More Protein
- More Clear Protein (always gluten-free)
- More Vegan Protein
- More Vegan Clear Protein
- More Clear Glow Peptides
- More Protein Iced Coffe (gluten-free: Cafe Frappe Style, Dark Chocolate Lover, Coffee Lover, Vanilla Chocolate Chip Cookie Decaff, Vanilla Chocolate Chip Cookie)
