Steroid hormones arelipid-soluble and can dissolve easily into the cell membrane of the target cell to connect with receptors. Protein hormones are water-soluble and connect with receptors at the membrane because it can't diffuse through the membrane.

What is the difference between whey protein and isolate protein?

The main difference between whey protein and isolate protein is the level of processing. Whey protein isolate undergoes further processing to remove more fat and lactose, resulting in a higher protein content per serving compared to regular whey protein.


What is the difference between whey protein and iso protein?

The main difference between whey protein and iso protein is the level of processing. Whey protein is a byproduct of cheese production and contains some fats and carbohydrates, while iso protein undergoes further processing to remove most of these fats and carbs, resulting in a purer protein product.

What is the difference and similarities between non steroid hormones and steroid hormones?

Different chemical classes of hormones are made from different substrates and are soluble in different solvents. Steroid hormones are synthesized from cholesterol and include: testosterone, aldosterone, cortisol, estradiol and progesterone. They are soluble in lipids (fat-soluble) and can therefore be administered orally. Other kinds of hormones, eg: tyrosine-based hormones and protein hormones, are made from different substances (eg: amino acids) and may be water soluble and therefore cannot be administered orally.
