About Whey
Whey is a liquid byproduct of cheese or yogurt production, originating from milk. Rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals, it has been utilized in various cuisines for centuries, particularly in European and Middle Eastern cooking. Whey protein is a popular nutritional supplement, prized for its high-quality amino acids, promoting muscle repair and growth. It also contains lactose, making it less suitable for individuals with lactose intolerance. Whey is low in fat and carbohydrates, making it a favorable option for those seeking lean protein. It supports immune function and may aid in weight management by enhancing satiety. However, excessive consumption could strain kidneys or lead to digestive discomfort for some. Unprocessed liquid whey can be used in baking, beverages, or soups, while powdered whey is the foundation for protein shakes. Its versatility and health benefits make whey a staple in both traditional kitchens and modern nutrition.
