When comparing some of Beverly's fine protein products (UMP), I see that when compared to other high end products, the yield of some products is 23 gr protein for 30 grams of product. Is it because of the type of protein used in the UMP?

A level scoop of UMP is 20 g for approx. 31 g weight…just like a chicken breast yields about 26 g for about 128 g of weight. Does this make sense? Does this answer your question?

I understand the product and the ratio, I was wondering why some proteins have a higher ratio than others, since buyers tend to look at that number.

thanks

What’s most important when taking any protein is that your powder includes only the highest grade ingredients available; that allow your body to utilize as much of that protein as possible. The amount of listed protein per X weight scoop may very well vary from company to company. It may vary from protein to protein, depending on the types of protein included in that particular product. Some protein species will be heavier than others…some proteins are blends, etc.

A Beverly protein with 20 grams of protein with a scoop weight of about 30 grams will be better utilized...utilized differently than another brand using inferior grade proteins. Just because a product lists 25 grams of protein per 28 gram weight scoop on the label doesn’t mean that it’s equal to utilizable protein in the body.

Beverly proteins contain only the highest grade ingredients available. They are simply the best proteins available on the market.

Hope this clears things up a bit. Good luck!

I think the key point may have been overlooked here. UMP is not protein only. It is a complete meal consisting of proteins, fats and carbs. The total of all three macros is 28 gms. The serving is only 31 grams by weight. Comparing products with different amounts of proteins fats and carbs and looking at the serving weight vs the gms of protein is not comparing apples to apples.

UMP is High protein, low carb and moderately low fat by design to fit in terrifically as a meal replacement in the Beverly diets you read that are (drum roll) high protein, moderately low carb and moderate fat. Especially the 50-30-20 diets, the best overall ratio for anyone to build muscle and lose fat.

If we wanted to have the biggest protein per serving in the industry, we'd just use the biggest scoop. That's usually what it comes down to. Some products will read 60 HUGE GRAMS PER SERVING! Well there's a plastic shovel in the can, so no wonder the grams of protein per "serving" is huge. But they're marketing to consumers with a different experience level. A Beverly user like yourself can figure out those gimmicks.

Something a consumer should look at is the total grams of macros compared to the total grams of the serving weight. No Beverly protein has more than 10% mixing agents - everything from sweetener to lecithin - that has to be included to make the product possible to consume. Put quite bluntly, you’re getting all nutrition - no filler.
The industry average is sadly 80% nutritional content at most. For example, the avg meal replacement packet has 56 gm of macros but the serving is 70 gms. Where are the extra 14 grams coming from? By the way, Mass Maker has 65 gms of macros in a 70 gm serving.

Hopefully this clears some things up for you.
