• DESCRIPTION DETAILS FACTS DIRECTIONS WARNINGS Integrated Supplements 100% Natural CFM Whey Isolate Integrated Supplements 100% Natural CFM Whey Isolate is the highest-quality whey protein supplement available today. The patented ceramic filtration system used to produce CFM whey protein yields whey protein with the highest level of native, undenatured protein, and the lowest levels of lactose and cholesterol. This great-tasting, easy-mixing whey protein is also naturally-flavored and naturally-sweetened, and is made with the highest-quality REAL FOOD ingredients like dutch cocoa, strawberry pieces and real vanilla. Buyer Beware – All Whey Protein is NOT Created Equal In recent years, as whey protein’s popularity has skyrocketed, the price of many whey protein raw materials has increased as well. As a result, many companies have altered their whey protein formulas to include the cheapest types of whey protein they can find, including ion-exchange whey isolate and whey concentrate. At Integrated Supplements, however, we’re still committed to providing you with only the highest-quality USA-sourced CFM whey isolate. Whey Isolate Versus Whey Concentrate It’s generally accepted that whey protein isolate is the highest-quality type of whey protein available. But, to cut costs, many whey protein supplements are formulated with a type of whey protein called whey protein concentrate. Whey protein concentrate contains between 34% and 80% protein, and contains relatively high levels of lactose, , and cholesterol. Whey protein isolate, on the other hand, contains 90% or greater protein by weight, and negligible levels of lactose, , and cholesterol. Because of the cholesterol and denatured proteins it contains, we feel that whey protein concentrate should be avoided. Oxidized Cholesterol What's so bad about the cholesterol in whey protein concentrate? Because of their long shelf life and greater surface area, powdered foods are susceptible to oxidation. When a cholesterol molecule interacts with oxygen, oxidized cholesterol may be formed. While unoxidized, or native cholesterol is an important substance needed for the building of cellular structure and hormone synthesis, oxidized cholesterol is zed differently, and may be a unique contributor to heart disease and other types of c and hormonal disruption. Oxidized cholesterol, for example, has been implicated in the development of atherogenesis – the thickening of the arterial wall due to the build-up of ty material - in other words, the beginning of the clogged arteries of heart disease. While fresh cholesterol-containing foods, cooked normally, contain relatively low levels of oxidized cholesterol, cholesterol-containing dried, powdered, and "shelf-stable" foods are apt to contain relatively high levels of oxidized cholesterol. This includes foods such as powdered eggs, powdered milk, powdered cheese, and whey protein concentrate. We tell our customers to always check the cholesterol content of the whey protein they’re thinking of purchasing – many so-called protein “blends” actually contain almost exclusively whey protein concentrate, and thus contain relatively high as of cholesterol. Denatured Proteins Because whey protein concentrates are often used as filler ingredients in animal feed, baked goods, and processed dairy products, great care is often not taken to protect the delicate whey protein structures in the production of whey protein concentrate. As a result, high levels of denatured and glycated proteins are often formed when whey protein concentrate is produced. These denatured and glycated proteins (i.e., altered protein structures, and altered protein structures formed when proteins interact with sugars and lipids) greatly compromise the tional quality of whey protein concentrate, and may even prove harmful. Properly-prepared whey protein isolates, on the other hand, are produced using selective filters which rid the product of essentially al.
