The Power of Whey Protein
Posted by June Thompson, CNC on 11/2/2011
Studies have shown that whey helps the human body stay lean, maintain a healthy heart, reduce the risk of diabetes and boost our resistance to illness.
According to research reviewed in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition and Alternative Medicine Review, whey enhances the human body's production of glutathione - our most important internal antioxidant - which protects us against environmental toxins and slows down the aging process.
Whey is able to help you stay lean because of it's high content of the branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine, which preserves muscle and helps it grow.
Whey can also help us deal with daily stress. A study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that whey improved mental reaction time in people with high stress levels. The tryptophan in whey also improves mood, sleep and morning alertness!
