Essential Whey 1kg Choco Hazel Fusion — 24g Protein, Lean Daily Driver (FSSAI Lab-Tested India)
About Zenith Sports
Zenith Sports is an Indian sports nutrition brand on a single mission: make lab-tested, easy-to-digest protein supplements that Indian athletes can actually trust.
Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Bangalore, Zenith Sports was built to fix two problems that quietly hurt every Indian gym-goer — bloating from cheap whey, and uncertainty about authenticity. Our answer was an 8-enzyme digestive blend in every whey and mass gainer, paired with a two-step QR-code authenticity check on every pouch you buy.
What makes Zenith different
1. 8-enzyme digestive blend in every protein SKU
Every Zenith whey and mass gainer is fortified with Protease, Lactase, Lipase, Amylase, Alpha-galactosidase, Gluco-amylase, Invertase and Cellulase. The blend helps break down protein and lactose efficiently, so you get maximum absorption without the bloating most Indian users associate with whey.
2. USA-imported whey concentrate at 80% protein-by-weight
Our raw whey is imported from the USA — one of the world’s highest-quality whey supply chains — and processed to a clean 80% protein-by-weight concentrate. No fillers, no artificial sweeteners in our unflavoured range, no banned substances.
3. Lab-tested every batch, with proof
Zenith Sports products are manufactured by Medizen Labs Pvt Ltd at our partner facility in Bangalore. The facility holds an FSSAI license (No. 11215332000675) and is GMP-certified. Every batch is third-party lab tested for heavy metals and adulterants — and we publish the test reports on our product pages, not behind an email gate.
4. Two-step QR authenticity check on every pack
Counterfeiting is the worst-kept secret in Indian supplements. We fight it with a two-step verification on every pouch: scan the QR code on the front, then scratch and scan the hidden Scratch QR code inside. Both must match at our verification page for the product to be authentic.
Who we are
Zenith Sports is operated by Meltingpot Concepts Pvt Ltd, headquartered in Bangalore, Karnataka. We are an India-first brand. Every product is formulated for Indian bodies, Indian climate, and Indian price points — the same protein quality international athletes buy, without the international markup.

Essential Whey is our accessible-price daily whey — 24g of protein from whey concentrate per 33g scoop, in Choco Hazel Fusion flavor. The 24g dose is the clinically established optimal serving for muscle protein synthesis in most adults. The macro profile is lean (~120 kcal, 3g carbs, 2g fats) for athletes on cuts or anyone tracking macros tightly. It's the daily driver — not the premium Whey DRC tier, but with the same FSSAI compliance, GMP manufacturing, and authenticity verification. Manufactured at our FSSAI-approved (License 11215332000675), GMP-certified facility in Bangalore. Two-step QR auth on every tub.
Essential vs DRC comparison
Which Zenith whey for you.
| Essential Whey | Whey DRC | |
|---|---|---|
| Protein per serving | 24g | 26g |
| Digestive enzyme blend | Standard | 8-enzyme blend |
| Best for | Daily driver, value | Premium, sensitive stomach |
| Price tier | Accessible | Premium |
| Flavors | Choco Hazel | Double Rich Chocolate |
| FSSAI compliance | ✓ | ✓ |
Pick Essential if you're a daily user who wants reliable quality at accessible pricing. Pick DRC if you have sensitive digestion or want the premium enzyme blend.
The protein math
Why 24g matters.
The MPS dose curve.
Studies consistently show muscle protein synthesis (MPS) plateaus around 20–25g of high-quality protein per serving for most adults. 24g hits that plateau without over-paying for excess.
Leucine content drives the response.
Whey is naturally leucine-rich. 24g of whey delivers approximately 2.5g of leucine — above the 2.0g threshold needed to maximally trigger MPS.
Multiple servings beat one big one.
3 servings of 24g across the day beats 1 serving of 72g for MPS. Spreading whey across meals is the most efficient protocol.
Lean macro profile.
~120 kcal per scoop with just 3g carbs and 2g fats means Essential Whey fits clean into cutting macros, lean bulks, and any structured nutrition plan.
Tested. Traceable.

Questions
The ones we get most.
How many scoops per day?
1–3 scoops per day, depending on your total protein target. Most athletes need 1.6–2g protein per kg bodyweight; whey covers what your meals don't.
Will it cause bloating?
Essential Whey is whey concentrate — the standard form. If you're sensitive to dairy, our Whey DRC with the 8-enzyme blend may be a better pick.
Mix with water or milk?
Water for fewer calories and faster absorption. Milk for richer flavor and an extra 8g protein. Both work.
Is Choco Hazel Fusion artificial?
Real chocolate + hazelnut profile, formulated for balanced sweetness. Holds up over 4+ weeks of daily use without flavor fatigue.
FSSAI approved?
Yes. License 11215332000675. GMP-certified facility by Medizen Labs in Bangalore.
Best time to take it?
Post-workout (within 1 hour) is the classic window. But total daily protein matters more than timing — take whenever it helps you hit your daily target.
