Google this without quotes:
whey protein isolate vs whey protein concentrate

Then open the first link that comes up. It wont let me copy and paste the text.

they are similar, but i looked a bit into this. for me, isolate is preferable to concentrate because it has far less cholesterol -usually none. it is more expensive to produce so it is generally more expensive, but it depends.
