Protein Benefits

The subject of whey protein, especially undenatured whey protein has come up in many online health discussions as the result of the research of McGill University.  Read on…

What is Undenatured Whey Protein

Whey protein is actually a term used to describe a group of globular proteins that can be separated from whey. When cow’s milk is used to manufacture cheese, it also leads to the production of whey, which may or may not be discarded. It is a mixture of lactoglobulin, alpha-lactalbumin and serum albumin.

Similar to protein found in egg white, whey protein can also be irreversibly changed by heat. Most commercially available whey proteins are heated as part of the pasteurization process, causing it to become less bio-active.

Undenatured  whey protein has not been heated so is much more bio-active.  This basically means it contains a high concentration of cysteine which is a vital building block of glutathione, a major antioxidant that is essential to improved fitness and health.  Undenatured is the term used to imply the whey protein has not been destroyed and is fully intact.

The supplement that is most studied and researched for its high cysteine content leading to improved glutathione and health is Immunocal.

Apart from raising glutathione, what else is undenetured whey protein, like Immunocal good for?

Weight Loss 

Because whey protein contains an inordinate amount of essential and non-essential amino acids, it frequently plays a prominent role in most low-carb and high-protein diets. Another reason for this is because of its low content of fats and of course, carbohydrates.

Pregnancy  

High quality proteins are needed by both mother and baby. An increased intake of whey protein will naturally improve the development of the baby. Also, increased intake of undenatured whey protein will indirectly improve the immune system of the baby.

Muscle Growth

For bodybuilders, muscle growth is everything and that’s why they love whey protein so much. Studies have shown Immunocal can lead to             acceleration of muscle development. This is welcomed news especially for bodybuilders who are only a few weeks away from the date of competition but is still in high need of muscle growth.

There are many other benefits of Immunocal through it’s role as a glutathione enhancer.  To receive a free report on the full effects and benefits of raising glutathione click here  How To Raise Glutathione
