As you may already know, Whey protein is one of the most bio-available sources of protein that our body recognizes. Protein provides a plethora of benefits that we are all familiar with including: muscle recovery, stabilizing blood sugar, and providing basic nutrition for our body. But beyond these familiar concepts there are additional, equally beneficial aspects of consuming whey. Take, for example, the high concentration of Cysteine found in Whey. This basic amino acid is the precursor to what is known as the body’s “master anti-oxidant”, Glutathione. This anti-oxidant has been found to do everything from preventing wrinkles to warding off cancer!
 
Whey is also known for its concentration of Immunoglobin (AKA anti-bodies) and Lactoferrin. The immunoglobin found in whey is extremely similar to colostrum found in mother’s milk. These molecules will help boost your immune system by providing protection from bacteria and virus’ On the other hand, Lactoferrin serves as an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal as well as maintaining a health gastrointestinal system by aiding with digestion.
 
So in addition to providing recovery for post workout and helping you hit your dietary protein goals, Whey can also provide appealing health benefits for everyone!
