Is whey concentrate good?

I want to invest in some whey protein but BM doesn’t ship to my country and whey isolate is kinda expensive. I’m looking at Myprotein Impact Whey right now and it costs ~$140 for a 5 KG pouch compared to $200 for their Whey isolate. I have to pay shipping + taxes on top of that so I’m looking at around $250 for a 5 KG pouch of isolate, which is scary.

I searched online and I saw that folks usually go for isolate because of lactose, which is something I don’t have any issue with.

But would the whey concentrate be absorbed as well as the isolate?

Yep, whey protein concentrate is absorbed just as well as isolate. It’s a bit cheaper, though I think at that price point it probably shouldn’t be a big factor. In other words, it’s very expensive either way…might as well get something you know is good and that you like. Either way, I’d recommend trying a small order first to make sure you’re not stuck with a 5kg sack of protein you don’t like.
