Whey Protein is NOT just for Bodybuilders
 

Whey Protein for Weight Loss

Whey protein can be a healthy part of a weight loss program, as it can provide satiety (a full feeling), and the protein can keep you from getting hungry for a while.  In addition, some whey protein supplements are low in carbohydrates which can facilitate weight loss.

However, many whey protein supplements today contain plenty of carbs in the way of added sugars and sweeteners, as well as artificial colors and flavorings.  They also are often made with whey that is heated to high levels, which denatures and damages the fragile whey proteins.  So you want to pick your whey carefully. 

Look for a whey protein with less than 100 calories per serving and less than 5 grams of sugar per serving  that uses raw whey that has not been denatured.

Whey Protein, Glutathione and Anti-Aging

Many health researchers agree:  aging is due in no small part to the destructive role that anti-oxidants play in our bodies, so boosting antioxidant levels in the body can slow down our aging as well as age-related diseases.

Studies have also linked glutathione levels with life spans, and this is probably due to it being a master antioxidant and essential to all living cells.  Glutathione production can be increased by taking a high quality whey supplement, especially one that contains high levels of cysteine.  In fact, the availability of cysteine in the body seems to be the determining factor in how much glutathione the body can produce.  You are probably getting some cysteine in your diet right now, but many think that the average person is still deficient.  This is where whey protein can be useful, especially if you make sure and use a brand of whey that does not heat the whey so the fragile cysteine is not damaged or destroyed.

Try the Whey Protein we have researched and recommend.  

Whey Protein and Immune Function

Whey protein is often high in some immune-boosting components like lactoferrin and immunoglobulins.  Boosting glutathione levels, like whey protein can, also helps to boost immune function.  But some whey proteins are higher in substances like lactoferrin and immunoglobulins than others, so research carefully.  Also, some whey proteins are higher in cysteine than others, and hence can help your body make more glutathione.  Last, but not least, it is very important that the whey protein you consume has not been heated to high temperatures, like many of them are.  This can destroy and denature many of the substances likely to benefit you the most.

Whey Protein, Glutathione and Detoxification

Undenatured whey protein that is high in cysteine also seems to be very beneficial in helping the body to detoxify from many of the various chemicals in our environment today.  That is because glutathione levels can be boosted with whey protein intake, and glutathione is used by the body in the work of detoxifying chemicals.  In fact, there are so many chemicals that we have to detoxify from, that many who do not take glutathione-boosting supplements may find themselves deficient.

In addition, many other amino acids found in whey protein are also used in the work of detoxifying, along with many minerals.  That is why we recommend the use of a natural mineral supplement as well as an undenatured whey protein supplement.
