Brief Answer:
Yes low calorie whey protein will be first choice

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for writing back,

If you are going for maintenance you have two choices either you can use Whey protein or Casein.


There are two types of supplements , the mass gainers which are hogh in carbs and calories and the lean ones which are low calrie protein blends, in your case you would need low calorie protein blends.

For Whey I would suggest 100% Gold standard whey which is considered one of the best Whey brands all over the world.


Here there are no doubts that Whey is considered more superior to casein.

But science is getting advanced these days. Here there is Hydra 6 by Granade which is a 50-50 percent blend of both Why amd Casein it has adnavtage of two types of proteins plus Casein in the form of Miscels , which line up the stomach walls and get absorbed in prolonged time keeping one full and providing
prolonged supply of proteins thorough out the day saving you from hunger pangs.

So Here I will suggest you to chose between Gold Standard 100% Whey and Hydra-6 after considering pros and cons.

Stay blessed.

Regards.
Dr.Muhammad Ahmad
