What it is
Whey is the liquid byproduct of cheesemaking. It is separated from the solid curd during the process. Whey contains lactose, proteins, minerals, and water.
Why it's used
Whey is used in a variety of foods for its nutritional and functional properties. It can act as a binder, emulsifier, and flavor enhancer. It is often found in baked goods, processed meats, and dairy products.
Health notes
Whey is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of high-quality protein, which is important for muscle building and repair. JECFA has evaluated whey and did not set a numeric limit (ADI not specified). Some individuals may have difficulty digesting lactose, a sugar found in whey.
Allergen info
Whey is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
