The Launch of Whey Permeate for Functional Beverages
22 Jan 2016 | Volac
Suzane Leser, Volac’s Head of Nutrition, believes that a completely new market is opening up for whey permeate, a natural complex of milk sugar, minerals and peptides, obtained after whey protein is extracted: “Milk today is recognised in sports for its potential to provide all of the nutrients needed for recovery, and lactose is the natural sugar in milk that replaces muscle energy stores. Whey permeate, rich in lactose, becomes one attractive alternative to sugar, mainly in water-based sports drinks.”
