Whey


Whey is considered a superfood by doctors and fitness fanatics alike. And for good reason.

High in protein, whey is believed to be the most thermogenic food on the planet. It is also a great way to boost your body's production of glutathione - a natural detoxifier and anti-aging substance.

Whey is the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strained; it is a by-product of the manufacture of cheese or casein. Whey proteins primarily consist of a-lactalbumin and ß-lactoglobulin. Depending on the method of manufacture, whey may also contain glycomacropeptides (GMP).

HEALING TIP: Healing Gourmet recommends HealthFX Whey Advanced made with rBGH-free whey protein concentrate, supplemented with anti-aging vitamin C and lightly sweetened with stevia.

Culinary Caution! Beware of whey proteins sold in "health food" stores as they often contain artificial sweeetners and are made with cows treated with rBGH.
