International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated whey products. At typical consumption levels in seasoned foods, it is not associated with adverse health effects.
Allergen info
Whey is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It is not gluten-containing.
