What it is
Whey protein is a mixture of proteins found in the liquid part of milk. "Grass-fed" means the cows that produced the milk spent most of their time grazing on grass. The whey is separated from milk during cheese production and then dried into a powder.
Why it's used
Whey protein is added to foods to boost their protein content. It is often found in protein bars, shakes, cereals, and other snack foods where increased protein is a desired feature.
Health notes
Whey protein is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a complete protein, meaning it contains all nine essential amino acids. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated whey protein. Scientific reviews suggest that consuming adequate protein, including from whey, supports muscle growth and repair.
Allergen info
Whey protein is derived from milk, which is one of the FDA's nine major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
