Introduction
Whey protein is an indispensable staple in the nutritional regimen of a growing population of
athletes, health consumers, infants and the elderly. It has been shown to yield profound health
benefits attributed to its immune boosting, insulin sensitizing, anti-inflammatory and antitumerogenic properties. Whey protein has also been considered ideal for muscle retention and
buildup, due to its unique amino acid composition, immune peptide profile and fast assimilating
character. However, in reality things arent always as good as in theory. In real life commercial
whey proteins have notable defaults that cannot be overlooked. Ignoring these would be a
GRAVE mistake! What you dont know about your whey protein product can jeopardize your
health and performance.
The following report was written in order to put the record straight regarding commercial whey
proteins. Fact vs. fiction, it blows the lid off the industry to allow you consider your options and
make reasonable decisions.

The human body cant effectively utilize food processed for 90% protein.
Here is why:
Protein is an acid forming food. When ingested frequently in overly high concentrations wit hout
its naturally occurring alkalizing cofactors such as calcium, magnesium or potassium, it overacidifies the body. Such is the case with whey protein isolates and it gets even worse when the
protein is acid treated
So when protein intake is chronically high (such as with athletes and bodybuilders) whey isolate
becomes a liability. If consumed chronically along with the typical high protein diet that
includes meats and other -protein foods, it can overacidify the body. Overacidification of the
body involves notable side effects. These may include
Heartburn
Digestive disorders
Fatigue
If this condition progresses to metabolic acidosis, it will literally shatters your body.
Metabolic Acidosis Wastes your Muscle and Degrades your Bone Tissues. It
Shatters your Metabolism and Makes you Prone to Inflammation and Disease.
Chronic acidification of the body causes accumulation of toxic ammonia in the tissues which is
then responsible for the typical funky body odor some people have when sweating. Accumulated
ammonia presents a serious risk to your body -- it paralyzes your muscles and impairs normal
brain function.
Metabolic acidosis causes more damage than previously thought. It works like a vicious cycle.
The acidifying effect on the body produces acid metabolites which further disrupts the bodys
natural acid/base balance.
Desperate to fix this, the body digs into its own tissues pulling out

This does not mean that protein isolates are the main or only cause of metabolic acidosis. What it
indicates is that given the fact that our typical diet is overly acidifying and since a large part of the
population already suffers from acidity related symptoms, its crucially important to identify and
eliminate the culprits. Hence, all acid forming foods including protein isolates must be carefully
evaluated. Protein isolates are certainly part of the problem.
So, while youre being told that whey protein isolate is Gods gift to muscle building, the truth is a
cold, hard slap in the face. You should be aware of the facts. Protein isolates are unnatural and
biologically inferior. And they should be classified as such. The supplement manufacturers
wont tell you that. They cover it up in their marketing. But you are the one paying the price with
your wallet AND your health.
How do you combat the damaging effects of whey protein isolate?
Dont use it!
Your whey protein choice must be whole; not over-processed. In its whole form, whey protein is
naturally bound with alkalizing minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium.
The human body evolved for whole foods nutrients, not for synthetic or isolate stuff. Your body
uses these alkalizing minerals to neutralize and eliminate the acidifying effect of the protein. So
when you eat whole whey protein your body can easily maintain its acid/base equilibrium intact.
There is no guesswork as to the ratios of minerals to protein nature has done it for you.
Remember, your whole whey protein must be non-acid treated.
Stay away from all acid whey products derived from acid cheese or acid casein manufacturing
regardless to how theyre labeled. All these varieties are acid damaged and unhealthy.
How do you detect a damaged whey?
A damaged whey has a typical funky aftertaste. Supplement manufacturers are aware of the
difficulty of selling protein with a funky aftertaste. They know the consumer wont like that which
brings us to the next problem.

Virtually all flavored whey products bars and powders contain one or some of these
deleterious ingredients. Theyre so commonly found in protein products youd think theyre
normal and perhaps okay.

Non-Acid Treated
To start with, most whey proteins are byproducts of grass-fed farm factory cows. Unlike pastureraised cows which are free range, happily grazing and raised by family farms that care about their
animals health, the farm factory cows are inhumanely caged, overly crowded, overly stressed,
grain-overfed and drugged with antibiotics and hormones.
Think about that image for a second on one hand, you have happy, cared -for cows that are
free to roam as they graze on the pasture. On the other hand, you have overly stressed cows
overly crowded, caged in a feed lot, shot up with drugs.
The difference between these two types of cows is substantial and its manifested in their milk.

Glutamylcysteine is the most bioactive form of the fragile amino acid cysteine. Cysteine is
destroyed in most protein foods due to cooking and processing. But the body needs cysteine to
produce its own antioxidant anti-inflammatory peptide glutathione, considered the most important
immuno-molecule in the body. Glutamylcysteine is the most bioactive precursor of gluthathione; it
instantly converts to that master antioxidant molecule, which then participates in all major
immuno activities, protecting your tissues from oxidative damage caused by toxicity, radiation
disease and aging.
To keep your body healthy and strong, you need to sustain high levels of glutathione. It
allows you recover from training or injury; It protects you from infections, chemical
toxicity, radioactive fallout and disease.
Quality Whey Is Your Best Means to Keep Your Glutathione Levels Intact
Whole pasture-raised grass-fed whey protein contains the highest levels of immune peptides
which include immunoglobulins, alpha lactalbumin, beta lactoglobulin, glycomarcpeptide, serum
albumin and lactoferrin.
The health boosting anti-inflammatory healing effects of wheys
immune peptides and glutathione have been widely documented -- proven to benefit athletes as
well as people who suffer from immune deficiencies or age-related metabolic decline.
