Why Having Whey Protein is Not as Healthy as You Think

Whey is all the rage lately for body builders, and just regular folks who want to add more protein to their diets, but is whey as awesome as it is made out to be?

For men and women who stay physically active, it might seem incomprehensible that whey protein isn’t the greatest thing since sliced bread. By the way - how many bodybuilders does it take to change a lightbulb?

Nine. One to screw in the bulb and the other eight hold up the mirrors.

But seriously, aside from bulking up the aesthetic body, whey does some insidious things to the inside of us, and if we were to put our vanity aside and ask if whey was really good for our health the answer is a resounding – NOT SO MUCH!

Why?

Whey messes with your gut flora. Those billions of microbes who have taken up residence in your intestines aren’t so happy when they are doused with whey protein shakes. Many people experience gas, bloating, and digestion issues after drinking whey protein. This is usually a hint that your gut bacteria are not happy campers.
Who cares if your biceps are bulging if your face is covered in acne. Whey protein may increase the translocation of liposaccharide from the gut, which can lead to chronic inflammation and aggravation of acne vulgaris.
Whey is a highly processed milk protein which is not a naturally healthy food for our digestive systems, and can cause insulin spikes. We have evolved to eat foods with a low to moderate insulin response from foods like fruits and vegetables. These have a carbohydrate density of around 23%. Whey is considered a insulintrophic food because it can make our insulin levels soar – leading to diabetes and obesity among other diseases.

The next time you want to bulk up or just replace protein, try plant-based, real foods instead. Your gut, skin and blood sugar levels will thank you, and so might Mr. Universe.

A study(link below) found that after ingestion of whey, white bread (the carb group), and glucose alone (reference), whey protein caused the biggest spike in insulin.
"Research shows that while whey protein causes an increase in serum levels of leucine, isoleucine, and valine, it also causes an increase in the hormone glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1)." -Source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...
"These findings of this study was backed by further research, thus confirming that simply supplementing 100% whey protein causes significant insulin spikes" - Source:
Claessens, M., Saris, W. H. M., & Baak, M. a van. (2008). Glucagon and insulin responses after ingestion of different amounts of intact and hydrolysed proteins. The British journal of nutrition, 100(1), 61-9.
Here's another study that shows the link between whey and insulin spikes among diabetes type 2 patients - http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/82/... - "The insulin responses were higher after both breakfast (31%) and lunch (57%) when whey was included in the meal than when whey was not included"
