What is whey?

Whey protein is a type of protein derived from whey, the liquid part of milk that separates during cheese production. Whey protein is considered a complete protein because it contains all nine essential amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own and must obtain from food sources. It is often used as a dietary supplement to support muscle growth and recovery, as well as for potential health benefits. Our whey concentrate contains carbohydrates and fats, in contrast to whey isolate, which contains minimal amounts of these.
