Guest guest Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Dairy cows are grass-fed. Some also get hay in the winter. This is pretty much a given. Grain finishing is used for beef cattle. all good, Duncan > > Here's my new Cold-Processed/Undenatured Whey comparison List and prices. Most don't use Grassfed Cows, two do though. If they did I'm sure they would advertise it. Added some info and one brand since last time. :-) I haven't read the Mercola article..always learning. > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Interesting that the Bluebonnet page says that Isolates are about 150% higher in " biological value " than either whole (raw?) eggs or whey concentrate. Anyone have a clue what " biological value " means? Also interesting is that Mercola recently said that why concentrate is the way to go which would be contradicted by the above. I am not surprised, because his whey " snacks " are said to only contain the concentrates, so this is likely a business decision. >I use Bluebonnet Whey Protein Isolate, a little expensive, but I am happy with it. http://www.bluebonnetnutrition.com/product/41/100%25_Natural_Whey_Protein_Is <http://www.bluebonnetnutrition.com/product/41/100%25_Natural_Whey_Protein_Is> olate_Powder< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Jim, If you're going to be suspicious of Dr. Mercola's contention that whey concentrate is more bioavailable just because his snacks contain it - then why not be suspicious of Bluebonnet's contention that Isolates have more " biological value " when isolates is what they sell? Just saying. Personally, I trust Mercola on this one as he bases his beliefs on scientific studies referenced in his article. And since he bases his conclusion on science, doesn't it make sense that he would use what he deems best in his own products? Btw, the whey protein concentrate I buy from Swanson's was originally an Ori Hofmekler product - grass fed with the addition of Aminogen® (helps to digest and assimilate proteins).

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Dee, " biological value " is a scale referring to the amount of digestion and kidney urea loading of a protein. On one hand whey protein isolate has the highest biological value of any protein, about double that of lean beef because most of it is absorbed without any digestion. On the other hand your whey concentrate is packaged with digestive enzymes to allow for its lower biological value, greater need for digestion, and more urea production. Urea production is the reason meat is called " net acidic " while whey is net alkaline. all good, Duncan > > > > Interesting that the Bluebonnet page says that Isolates are about 150% > > higher in " biological value " than either whole (raw?) eggs or whey > > concentrate.

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Duncan, According to Dr. Mercola: " All whey protein isolates are devoid of nutritional co-factors including alkalizing minerals, naturally occurring vitamins, and lipids, which are lost in the processing... This renders them deficient and overly acidifying. Unlike whole protein food concentrates which does not acidify your body due to it's alkalinizing minerals, whey protein isolate are over acidifying. Whey isolate can be a serious liability. & #8232; & #8232;If chronically consumed in large amounts (such as with bodybuilders or athletes) without alkalizing foods, it can acidify your body and over time may lead to metabolic acidosis with consequences that include waste of muscle and bone tissues, total metabolic shut down, and increased vulnerability to degenerative disease. Many cheap whey protein isolates are produced from acid cheese; they're byproducts of acid processing, which is a cheap way to separate whey from the curd. Most of these whey products are rated below pet foods because of the inferior quality of the protein, which is actually more of a nitrogen waste product than one that will produce health benefits that are mentioned in the featured study. Additionally once the fat has been removed from whey protein isolate, you lose some of the most important components of its immunological properties, such as phospholipids, phosphatidylserine and CLA. All of the IgG immunoglobulins, which are an excellent source of glutamine and glutamylcysteine, are also bound to the fat globule, and therefore lost in the processing of whey isolates. " end quote As I said, I trust Dr. Mercola on this one.

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Dee, here's the short explanation: whey isolate is assimilated without producing the acidic byproduct of digestion. The amount of digestion and the uric acid/nitrogen produced is how biological value of any protein is calculated. Whey isolate is simply absorbed and sent to the cells so it ranks the highest in BV and the lowest acidity. I think Mercola is not really making a point here except to rant about deficiencies. I understand that he is against eating one thing " without alkalizing foods " , but who does that anyway? Most of us wouldn't dream of a veggie-less diet. You can use a whey concentrate if you like because it's handled less and has more nutrients; the current product I have is a concentrate/isolate blend, and I still eat milk fat, which is rich in the very nutrients that Mercola correctly says are missing from the whey isolate. all good, Duncan > > > > > > > > Interesting that the Bluebonnet page says that Isolates are about 150% > > > > higher in " biological value " than either whole (raw?) eggs or whey > > > > concentrate.

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 I don¹t know anybody who takes large amounts of whey without a proper corresponding diet to prevent over acidifying. Even myself, who hates veggies, but eats them 5-7x's per week. I have never heard of that with anyone I personally know. Isolates are a purer protein as opposed to concentrate, taken for faster assimilation and less lactose. As log as you don¹t buy the " cheap " ones. You get quite a substantial amount of the components that a concentrate has. His statement that " All of the IgG immunoglobulins, which are an excellent source of glutamine and glutamylcysteine, are also bound to the fat globule, and therefore lost in the processing of whey isolates. " end quote " is not correct. Not all of them are lost, especially in good isolates It took me a while to find an isolate that had the high components that Bluebonnet has. And if I found one whose values were higher I would switch, but not to a concentrate. I want a more cleaner, purer protein, so I can put it to use faster.
