any whey branch chain amino acids?

Do all whey protiens have BCAAs? I thought they did but I just bought some Any Whey by optimum Nutrition and nowhre on the label does it boast any BCAAs like most whey mixes do. I always assumed the BCAAs in whey solutions were naturally occuring. Am I wrong? Are they added or in this case NOT added?

I wanted to get some designer whey natural ( no sweetners ) and it has added b vitamins zink and magnesium which I need but that didn't work out this time. Does anyone have experience with Any Whey? Good or bad? Would you use designer whey over this product if you had to choose?

Thanks all!
 
ON is a good brand, but they make a few 'tiers' of whey powder. I've only bought their 100% gold standard whey, which has an amino profile on the label, and their pro-complex, which has a better amino profile.

all protein has amino acids, but its probably just that the any whey isn't above average, so they don't draw attention to it.
 
thanks for the info.



Thoughts on Designer whey? I like that it has the b vitamins, magnesium and zinc. I take just a plain multi with just 100% of most things so the extra b a few times a day would be great.

I don't know about Any Whey, but the 100% gold standard has 5g BCAAs.

As far as the Designer Whey with it's B vitamins, zinc and magnesium, you'll get that from a good multi-vitamin.
 
I looked up the Any Whey label. its decent whey, so it does have BCAA's, just not enough to 'brag' about. plus that's their el-cheapo whey, so the less info on the label makes it cheaper to package.
