2. Whey protein - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whey_protein

   There is evidence that whey protein is more bio-available than casein or soy protein. [18] [19] Whey protein is commonly marketed as a dietary supplement, typically sold in powdered form for mixing into beverages. [2] Whey protein is also commonly used as a thickener to improve texture and decrease syneresis in many types of yogurt.

3. Whey - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whey

   Sweet whey and acid whey are similar in gross nutritional analysis. By mass both contain 93% water, about 0.8% protein, and about 5.1% carbohydrates. Sweet whey contains about 0.4% fat while sour whey contains about 0.1% fat. [2] The carbohydrates are mainly lactose. The proteins are known as lactalbumin. Whey also contains some minerals. [3]

4. Bodybuilding supplement - Wikipedia

   For bodybuilders, whey protein provides amino acids used to aid in muscle recovery. [15] Whey protein is derived from the process of making cheese from milk. There are three types of whey protein: whey concentrate, whey isolate, and whey hydrolysate. Whey concentrate is 29–89% protein by weight whereas whey isolate is 90%+ protein by weight.

5. Lactalbumin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactalbumin

   Targeted small scientific studies suggest that certain types of lactalbumin (whey protein) may improve immune responsiveness and increase levels of glutathione systemically in animals and which apparently possess antiviral (against viruses), anti-apoptotic (impede cell death) and anti-tumor (against cancers or tumors) activities in humans, but ...

6. Protein supplement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_supplement

   A meta-study concluded that intake of protein supplements higher than around 1.6 g/kg/day do not further improve the gains in FFM (fat free mass) [3] “at least for younger individuals”, [3] with a confidence interval from 1.03 to 2.20 [3] so “it may be prudent to recommend ~2.2 g protein/kg/d for those seeking to maximize resistance ...

7. Biological value - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_value

   This is not restricted to values of less than 100. The percentage BV of egg protein is only 93.7% which allows other proteins with true percentage BV between 93.7% and 100% to take a relative BV of over 100. For example, whey protein takes a relative BV of 104, while its percentage BV is under 100%.
