Organic Whey

Whey is the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strained, typically during the process of making cheese. Organic whey is sourced from cows raised under organic farming standards, meaning they are not given antibiotics or synthetic growth hormones and are fed organic feed. It is often dried into a powder for use in food products.

Whey powder is used as a protein source, a binder, and to improve texture and flavor in foods. It is commonly found in baked goods, dairy products, protein supplements, and processed snacks.

Whey protein is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of high-quality protein that can be beneficial for muscle growth and repair. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated whey and its derivatives. Evidence suggests whey protein is well-tolerated by most individuals when consumed in typical amounts found in food.
