Whey
Isolate

First
of all, I do believe I have a section on my website about whey - with
lactose or not.
It is an inferior protein. Having watched a lot of history unfolding,
I hate to see you parents being used for economic gain. For many years,
whey, a byproduct of cheese manufacture was dumped wherever possible
- most of the time in farmers' creeks. Because it contained so much
carbohydrate (lactose) it caused bacteria to ferment it vigorously
and the
stench was horrendous. Farmers complained for miles around. Finally,
the Dept. of Agriculture decided to turn another waste product into
money and
posted all sorts of new bulletins about how wonderful whey was. In
biochemistry, we learn it is an inferior protein and one which is
most
apt to cause allergic reactions. Perhaps those promoting it do not know
biochemistry nor history but this is my take on whey anything. The
best protein is casein
- as my website tells you, it was ued by developing countries
(as well as industrialized countries) as the best protein to help
children dying from diarrhea from cholera, etc. to regain health.
Those who do not know history are doomed to live through the same
mistakes.
