Vital Whey Grass-Fed Whey Protein Frequently Asked Questions What is Whey? Whey is a by-product of cheese manufacture resulting from drainage of liquid from the curd. It contains lactose, protein, ash, and lipids. The protein concentration at this stage of processing is about 67 protein. Whey proteins can be fractioned and concentrated via a process called micro-filtration to yield whey protein concentrates (WPC). The protein concentration can be as high as ~ 95% protein after the removal of the fats and lactose. WPC's are an excellent source of nutrition and are high in lactalbumin, minerals, and vitamins. It possesses a number of functional advantages such as solubility, high water retention, foaming and gelation. As a result of these qualities, whey protein concentrates (WPC) have been used in a wide range of food products such as the formulation of dairy foods, egg white replacement, beverages, surimi and comminuted meat products . In response to the efficacy of whey consumption, Karen Collins, M.S., R.D., a registered dietician from the American Institute for Cancer Research, states that whey is a safe and healthy ingredient in foods since levels of pesticides and hormones are not concentrated in whey . Whey protein concentrates are of particular interest to the practitioner due to their wide-range and near full-blend of essential and non-essential amino acids, which are commonly referred to as the building blocks of life. Linked amino acids combine to form proteins. These protein comprise nearly every tissue and organ in the body, therefore any supplementation of the diet with proteins may be beneficial to injury repair, metabolism, and general health.

This amount represents a 5 fold increase in imported product over a four year span and nearly 90% of all worldwide imports of whey. Commonly whey is prepared from cheese products such as cheddar cheese. In accordance with the Ohio State University method, whey is prepared from milk using lactic acid culture and rennet as a coagulant. The milk is HTST (High Temperature Short Time) pasteurized (163° F, 30 seconds) and held overnight at 40°C then warmed to 30° C and inoculated with 1.5% cheese starter. After
