Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 my co-worker's trainer gave her an article from the june 2003 issue of " personal fitness professional " on the benefits of whey protein & it's key amino acids. here's some of the highlights: " whey prot has been clinically proven to build muscle & improve athletic performance. it has also been shown to help reduce body fat while @ the same time increase lean muscle mass when taken as part of an exercise program. another important benefit of the prot is its ability to raise levels of IGF-1, a muscle-building chemical, & decrease levels of cortisol, a muscle-depleting substance... ....taking one supplement of whey prot each day is proven to increase strength & build muscle;control appetite & aid in weight loss;maintain immune function;improve endurance & boost energy levels;promote cirulatory system health;& stimulate brain function. " the article also gives a reference website: www.wheyoflife.org we're a " little " different than athletes, but i've heard the praises of whey from nutritionists @ wls meetings. lori h.
