Guest guest Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Duncan, I just called vitacost to order the Jarrow undenatured whey and they said they had NO IDEA as to what undenatured meant or which one of the three whey products they sold that it would be. Can you tell me what undenatured means and which one of their products is the one you are refering to? Or do we just ignore the word undenatured??? and not confuse anyone LOL. Also I am supposing that the pure omega 3 protien bars are too high in carbs. for candida people even though they have no added sugar???

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Yes, the Jarrow low temperature on my whey page is undenatured; probably the one you has is too.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 --- what is the difference in undentured whey and whey? Is it the way that it is processed? I am still researching this before i begin to take it. thanks sue ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ The fish are biting.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 steph, Let me ask you this question, why are you taking the whey.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Well Sue, I have tried everything else and I am a bit protien deficient so it certainly should help. The benefits are many I am told. Duncan, I took my first whey today but it tasted nausiatingly sweet. Does it have too many carbs. for someone with bad systemic candida or is it just that I have been off of carbs. so long that most everything tasts sweet to me?

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Hi Steph, I bought the Jarrow Vanilla Whey also...it is fairly sweet & does have fructose listed in the ingredients, but it is undenatured as I understand it. What I learned in my Human Physiology class (pre-nursing student) is that proteins can be denatured by heat or chemical processes, which breaks them down into simpler protein forms. Apparently we're going for more complex protein forms (quaternary or tertiary) as opposed to simpler ones (secondary or primary forms). Here's a link that explains the concept a bit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denaturation_%28biochemistry%29 > > I will never understand " undenatured " whey to where it will do me any > good when it comes to being able to purchase some. I need to know: > NO whey has the word undenatured on the lable. THEREFORE how do I > determine if the whey I want to purchase is undenatured or not? I > don't need to understand so much what it means, but I need to be able to > buy it where someone who sells it can understand what it is I want. I > want to purchase the Jarrow because I like Jarrow products. Therefore, > WHICH one and what does it say EXACTLY on the lable of the jar???

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Finally I read all of the lable Bettie and I am sure glad you mentioned that as I cannot afford to be taking something with fructose in my condition. It is too bad everything has to be sweetened in this country. I get so discusted with this. OK so now I am on the hunt for a new jar of whey. DOES ANYONE MAKE an undenatured whey without any sweetners added what so ever? Also if anyone knows, please include where you can get it with a phone number or e-address. Thankyou a million in advance as I am starving here and I will not take anymore of that whey with the fructose added. I am HOT OUT to kill that yeast and I am certainly not going to give it the slightest thing to eat in the line of sweets. Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Can anyone help me understand whey. What are the benefits of taking whey? Based on blood work i am not deficient in protein. thanks sue ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Expecting?

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 (all below copied from other sources) *** Whey protein is the name for a collection of globular proteins that can be isolated from whey, a by-product of cheese manufactured from cow's milk. It is typically a mixture of beta-lactoglobulin (~65%), alpha-lactalbumin (~25%), and serum albumin (~8%), which are soluble in their native forms, independent of pH. Whey has the highest Biological Value of any known protein. Whey is a lactose-free or reduced lactose protein loaded with nutrients and essential amino acids. Whey is comprised of four major protein fractions and six minor protein fractions. The major protein fractions in whey are beta-lactoglobulin, alpha-lactalbumin, bovine serum albumin and immunoglobulins. Each of these components have important disease-fighting effects. In addition, whey protein is easily digestible and lactose-free. Whey protein typically comes in three major forms: concentrate, isolate and hydrolysate. Whey protein concentrates contain a low level of fat and cholesterol but generally have higher levels of bioactive compounds, and carbohydrates in the form of lactose — they are 29%-89% protein by weight. Isolates are processed to remove the fat, and lactose, yet are usually lower in bioactive compounds as well — they are 90%+ protein by weight. Hydrolysates are predigested, partially hydrolyzed whey proteins which consequently are more easily absorbed, but their cost is generally higher. Some individuals with suppressed/abnormal immune systems and/or degenerative diseases use undenatured bioactive whey proteins to increase their antioxidant levels. Undenatured whey proteins are a good source of cysteine, a conditionally essential amino acid which is the rate limiting factor for the body's production of glutathione, an important antioxidant. It is made up of essential and non-essential amino acids, which are the " building blocks " for healthy bodies. Protein has a number of different roles in the body including the following: Repair body cells Build and repair muscles and bones Provide a source of energy Control many of the important processes in the body related to metabolism The body is able to make non-essential amino acids from other amino acids in the body. However, the body is not able to make essential amino acids and the only way to get them is by eating high quality protein foods. Protein sources that contain all of the essential amino acids are called complete proteins. Whey protein is a naturally complete protein. Individuals with special medical needs often need more protein. *** I would think with the chemo and radiation you're going through/or will be going through that your requirements might be higher. Since I've been taking undenature whey, not only do I feel much better and have more energy, but it's building lean muscle and tissue. I used to look emaciated. My muscle tone has improved greatly and now I'm looking pretty healthy and fit! Gail > > Can anyone help me understand whey. > > What are the benefits of taking whey?

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Hu Buddy; The first whey below may be not what we're looking for, as the description lacks the appropriate keywords. A " whey isolate " is not necessarily one of the undenatured isolates that will do us good for glutathione production. The second one has the appropriate language.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Buddy, this language for the first whey " A patented†††, multi-step ultrafiltration process concentrates and preserves the whey protein and bioactive immunoglobulins " is close, especially if the whey was whole whey to star to the right wording if the serum albumin and lactalbumin proteins especially are also preserved along with the beta-lactoglobulin.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Hi all, I have been viewing posts for a while and recently started some whey as I was advised as I was losing too much weight on the diet. Having looked into it more, it seems that the majority of wheys are by products of cheese production and hence will always be partially denatured given the processes involved. The only ones not are the very expensive immunocal etc? I found a body building supplement which goes into the whole issue in detail, namely pro peptide by cnp professional, and although the info on the website is very interesting, it means there are more choices to make! The price doesn't seem too bad though which seems to make it worth contemplating. Looking at the work by Bounos (as per the website article) it seems that they did not get the glutathione results until they used a specially processed whey. So is it something that we should be obsessing about?? anyhow, I guess that trial and error is a good 'whey' to find out but that does get expensive!

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Most milk is flash-pasteurized, which partially denatures it before cheese-making. The undenatured whey that remains is recovered and concentrated, accounting for the variations between undenatured whey products. The glutathione precursors of the lower-grade products are about 2/3 as potent as Immunocal but only about 1/8 of the price. While Immunotec dealers suggest perhaps 20-30 grams, we use about 70 or more anyway so the delivery of glutathione precursors is not an issue, and in fact whey protein remains the best protein for your body as it increases metabolic rate and preserves alkalinity. Choosing between them is not at all trial and error, as I've detailed the method at the bottom of the page of examples here, and included links to other similar products: http://tinyurl.com/cuzcc Duncan > > Hi all, > > I have been viewing posts for a while and recently started some whey > as I was advised as I was losing too much weight on the diet.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 , the way to tell wheys apart based on their glutathione precursors or wording on the label is explained at the bottom of the whey page: http://tinyurl.com/whey-page Sorry I don't know about free samples. Duncan > > Where do you get this? I called to Whole Foods, Vitamin Shoppe, General Nutrition. I would like to buy one single pack individually to try it before shelling out 12-15$. Any ideas? Most people do not even know what I am saying when I say undenatured. Is there another term for this? Doug > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
