Whey Protein and Infant Formula

Whey protein isn’t only for athletes trying to gain muscle. It’s also not just for people looking to age healthy or for bariatric surgery patients. Whey protein can help keep just about any human healthy – no matter how small.

Many infant formula manufacturers include whey protein in their formulations. After all, whey protein comes from milk which is what babies primarily consume. Whey has all kinds of dietary benefits and high quality forms of it like isolates mix with liquids incredibly well.
To be clear: you shouldn’t take a scoop of whey protein you bought online or at a supplement store, mix it in liquid, and feed it to an infant. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, “Infant formulas contain the right balance of protein, carbohydrates, essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. Offering your baby a protein supplement is dangerous because of the potential for protein toxicity, which can lead to death.”
However, if you have a baby and are giving it infant formula, then it might be worth looking at one with whey protein that has been engineered by professional food scientists. There are types of whey protein such as alpha-lactalbumin that are added to some infant formulas and have shown great nutritional importance, according to studies.
