What it is

This ingredient is a protein found in milk, primarily from cows. It is separated from whey during the cheesemaking process. The protein is then processed into a powder or concentrated form for use in food products.

Why it's used

Milk protein concentrate is used as a source of protein and to improve texture and moisture retention in foods. It is often found in processed cheese products, baked goods, nutritional beverages, and dairy-based desserts.

Health notes

Milk protein concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of high-quality protein, which is essential for muscle building and repair. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated milk proteins. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming milk protein concentrate at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Milk protein concentrate is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
