Alpha-Lactalbumin Protein

A novel whey-derived protein rich in essential amino acids, leucine and tryptophan to support muscle repair, sleep quality and metabolic health -- far more benefits than traditional whey.

Muscle repair

Supports muscle protein synthesis and post-training repair with essential amino acids and 2.0g of leucine per serving.

Calm & sleep support

High tryptophan levels support serotonin and melatonin pathways that promote relaxation and healthier sleep patterns.

Boosts metabolic health

Supports healthy metabolism, glucose response, satiety, and body composition—especially valuable for evening recovery and overnight repair.

Offered in monthly, quarterly and annual subscriptions.

The Science

Protein that does more than build muscle

Alpha-lactalbumin is a specialized whey fraction with uniquely high levels of tryptophan and leucine. These amino acids fuel muscle protein synthesis, serotonin regulation, and sleep-wake signaling -- pathways traditional proteins don’t engage.

A new kind of formula

The most comprehensive protein in its class—supporting metabolic, cognitive, mood, sleep, and gut pathways in one scoop.

Follow The Science

Activate Muscle Protein Synthesis

Leucine is a potent trigger for muscle protein synthesis, repair, and recovery.

Serotonin & Stress Modulation

High tryptophan increases serotonin availability, promoting calm, mood balance, and cognitive resilience.

Metabolic Function & Body Composition

Supports glucose response, satiety, and overnight repair to promote healthy metabolism and body composition.

Gut Barrier & Microbial Balance

Bioactive peptides help support gut lining integrity and beneficial bacteria.

Influence Sleep Architecture

Supports endogenous melatonin production to promote healthy sleep patterns and next-day readiness.

Cellular Protection & Glutathione

Cysteine fuels glutathione, the body’s master antioxidant, helping defend against cellular stress

Better quality, by design

Each component is carefully selected for purity, amino acid potency, digestibility, and mixability to deliver a consistent, high-performance protein formulation.

Ingredient Purity

Alpha-lactalbumin is a naturally occurring whey fraction with exceptionally high purity and bioactive peptide content. Each batch is tested for identity, quality, and amino acid composition.

Amino Acid Potency

We verify levels of leucine, tryptophan, and essential amino acids to ensure consistent support for muscle repair, serotonin pathways, and overnight recovery.

Digestive Comfort

Alpha-lactalbumin contains fewer irritants than typical whey concentrates, making it gentler on the stomach and less likely to cause bloating or heaviness.

Mixability & Taste

Designed to blend smoothly into shakes, smoothies, or warm beverages without chalkiness or clumping.

Leucine

Maximum muscle protein synthesis trigger, the process responsible for repairing and rebuilding muscle tissue.

Tryptophan

Increases serotonin availability, promoting calm, stress modulation, and downstream melatonin production for sleep regulation.

Essential Amino Acids

Provides all nine essential amino acids required for recovery, muscle maintenance, and whole-body protein turnover.

Bioactive Peptides

Includes lactorphin and lactoferricin-like fragments shown to support gut barrier function and antimicrobial defense

Cysteine

Supplies cysteine to support glutathione synthesis, enhancing cellular antioxidant capacity and redox balance

Complete Protein Structure

A highly digestible, human-milk–like structure with excellent amino acid availability for whole-body repair.

Frequently asked questions

What does Alpha-Lactalbumin taste like?

It has a mild, clean flavor similar to standard whey but lighter. Most people describe it as neutral and easy to mix into water, milk, or smoothies.

When is the best time to take it?

Most people take Alpha-lactalbumin in the evening because of its calming and sleep-supportive properties, but it can also be used after workouts or anytime you want extra protein.

How is Alpha-Lactalbumin different from regular whey?

It’s a more refined whey fraction with higher levels of tryptophan and leucine. That gives it a broader range of effects, particularly on relaxation and sleep, while still supporting muscle repair.

Will this protein upset my stomach?

Alpha-lactalbumin is generally easier to digest than casein and many whey blends. Most people tolerate it well, but if you have a dairy allergy, you should avoid it.

How long does it take to feel the effects?

Muscle recovery benefits are typically noticeable right away. Mood and sleep benefits may take 1–2 weeks of consistent use as serotonin-related pathways adapt.

Is Alpha-Lactalbumin safe for daily use?

For most people, yes. It’s a natural protein fraction found in milk. If you have kidney disease or a dairy allergy, speak to your clinician before adding extra protein.

Can I use this if I track macros or follow a low-calorie diet?

Yes. Each serving is just 90 calories, making it a lighter option than most protein shakes and bars.

Can I take the protein on rest days?

Yes. Recovery, mood support, and sleep quality benefits apply even when you’re not training.
