Whey Concentrate
Whey Concentrate is a dairy-derived protein powder made from the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strained; it's commonly used in sports nutrition, baking and high-protein recipes. It is very protein-dense, providing about 80g of protein per 100g, and is valued for its fast-digesting, complete amino acid profile. Nutritionally, whey concentrate is low in carbohydrates and fiber but contains some saturated fat and small amounts of B-vitamins and selenium; it’s an efficient way to increase protein intake without adding many carbs. From a health perspective, whey concentrate is prized for its high protein quality and muscle-supporting properties, though it provides little fiber and fewer micronutrients compared with whole-food protein sources.
