what the evidence says
Whey isolate carries the same strong evidence as whey generally: what trials reward is total daily protein alongside training, and isolate's extra filtration mainly buys less lactose and slightly more protein per scoop. For the lactose-sensitive that is a real benefit; for everyone else it is a preference, not a performance edge. Hydrolysed whey digests marginally faster, and trials have largely failed to convert that speed into better real-world outcomes; this is the enthusiast's luxury tier.
