Vilgain Grass-Fed Whey Protein – made from the milk of grass‑fed cows, sweetened with stevia, ultrafiltered at low temperatures
The first 100% natural tasty protein with no artificial sweeteners
Our premium whey concentrate is a powerhouse of beneficial protein, including BCAAs, essential for muscle growth and maintenance. Made from real ingredients, it's a smart choice for your fitness journey.
From grass‑fed cows
enjoying the lush pastures in the UK
The foundation of this product is whey sourced from high‑quality milk from cows that graze on grass for at least 10 months of the year. Their milk has a more favourable fatty acid profile than that of grain‑fed cows, enhancing the overall quality of the protein.
Through low‑temperature ultrafiltration, valuable protein fractions are preserved, including ß-Lactoglobulin and α-Lactoglobulin, which boost immunity, and Immunoglobulin G, which helps protect the body against bacterial and viral infections. Last but not least, it contains Lactoferrin, which improves iron absorption.
Maximum benefit for your body
Whey protein has a bioavailability similar to meat, which means the human body can easily use it. It is highly digestible and contains a high proportion of essential amino acids, including branched‑chain amino acids (BCAAs) and leucine. These amino acids are important for promoting muscle growth and recovery.

Natural colour and flavour
We use only natural ingredients like vanilla, cocoa, bananas, and strawberries and avoid artificial flavours and colours to maintain the authentic taste and colour of the ingredients in our protein.
Instead of sucralose, we use a natural sweetener from stevia leaves
The stevia plant provides a sweetener that is rich in steviol glycosides. This sweetener doesn't impact blood sugar levels, is 200‑300 times sweeter than sugar, and is considered a safe and natural non‑caloric option.
Why do we not use sucralose?
Sucralose is an artificial sweetener that is made by combining chlorine and sucrose. It is currently the most commonly used artificial sweetener. However, recent studies have highlighted some potential negative effects of using sucralose. For instance, it may reduce insulin sensitivity, making tissues less receptive to it, even at doses typically consumed by dietary supplement users. Another potential side effect of consuming sucralose is that it can reduce the volume and diversity of gut bacteria in our microbiome, which plays a crucial role in our overall health.
