What this means

Elite efficiency — 40%+ of calories from protein. Lean meat, whey isolate, low-fat dairy. 47.1% density puts this in the Platinum tier.

Pea isolate is effectively complete (low methionine but adequate) — counts toward the target.

Note: At 1.56g leucine per single scoop, this product sits below the 2.5g threshold needed to maximally trigger muscle protein synthesis in one serving. Common workarounds: use 1.5 scoops, or combine with another protein source in the same meal (e.g., Greek yogurt, eggs). More on the leucine threshold.
