Whey protein is the collection of globular proteins that can be isolated from whey, a by-product of cheese manufactured from cow's milk. It is typically a mixture of beta-lactoglobulin (~65%), alpha-lactalbumin (~25%), and serum albumin (~8%), which are soluble in their native forms, independent of pH. Whey has the highest biological value (BV) of any known protein. The protein fraction in whey (approximately 10% of the total dry solids within whey) comprises four major protein fractions and six minor protein fractions. The major protein fractions in whey are beta-lactoglobulin, alpha-lactalbumin, bovine serum albumin and immunoglobulins. Each of these components has important disease-fighting effects.[citation needed] In addition, whey protein is easily digestible. Whey protein can be denatured by heat. High heat (like the sustained high temperatures above 72 degrees Celsius (160 degrees Fahrenheit) associated with the pasteurization process) denatures whey proteins, destroying some bioactive compounds, such as the amino acid cysteine. While native whey protein does not aggregate upon renneting or acidification of milk, denaturing the whey protein triggers hydrophobic interactions with other proteins, and the formation of disulfide bonds between whey proteins and casein micelles, leading to aggregation with other milk proteins at low pH. Whey protein typically comes in three major forms concentrate, isolate, and hydrolysate.

12. Bodybuilding Supplements Review - Protein
September 16, 2008
The most important nutrient for building muscle is protein Not the only nutrient of course, but the most important. How much ? I'd go for 1 gram of protein for each pound of bodyweight. If you are a really thin hardgainer with a fast metabolism go for 1.25 grams for each pound of bodyweight. There are two major players in the protein powder arena, whey and casein. Whey is the fast absorber while casein is absorbed at a much slower rate. Research has shown that casein, micellar casein to be exact, has a great anti-catabolic effect (catabolism is the breakdown of muscle tissue) and if it's anti-... (read more)
