Hey jordan.
I have question about what you wrote in your protein article

“if you find that you can’t source a WPC with a good amino acid profile, a Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) might be preferred.”
“you can’t find a good BCAA profile in a WPC, you may check out a good WPI.”

Is it means that wpi contain more bcaa than wpc? or wpi is harder to messing with the amino acid content? or just saying we may check out a whey-rx(good wpi for sure)?

additionally I gues wpi contain more protein than wpc in same serving so WPI usually contains more bcaa than wpc. am I right? (I heard some people claim wpc is more “whole protein” so contains more bcaa than wpi)

Yes, as WPI contains more protein than WPC. WPI is a more concentrated source of protein than WPC. Both are “complete proteins” as both contain all of the essential amino acids.
