Whey concentrate is a high-protein dairy product derived during the cheese-making process. It contains a concentrated blend of essential amino acids, making it a popular choice for muscle recovery and growth. Typically composed of 70-80% protein, it also includes small amounts of fats, carbohydrates, and lactose. Originating from milk, whey has been a staple in European culinary and nutritional traditions, though today it’s incorporated worldwide in shakes, bars, and baking. Rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), it supports tissue repair and energy, ideal for athletes or active individuals. However, due to its lactose content, those with lactose intolerance may experience digestive discomfort. While a versatile and nutritious supplement, moderation is key, especially for those monitoring caloric intake or sensitivities to dairy.
