What Is Whey Protein?


Whey protein is a high-quality protein naturally derived from milk during the cheese-making process. It contains all essential amino acids and is one of the most commonly used protein sources in sports nutrition and everyday diets.

Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass and contributes to the maintenance of normal bones. These are authorised health claims approved within the European Union.

Whey protein is commonly used by physically active individuals and by anyone looking to increase their daily protein intake as part of a varied and balanced diet.
