How is Natural Whey Made?
Natural Whey protein powder is extracted through CTP™ (Cold Temperature Process) Microfiltration. This is a Cross-Flow Microfiltration (CFM) process that removes the larger, less absorbable protein molecules while filtering out fat, lactose and ash which are normally present in whey concentrates and other lower quality protein powders.
Natural Whey is extracted through CTP™ (Cold Temperature Process) Microfiltration
The filtration membranes used for in the CFM process are extraordinarily fine and have the ability to remove even more lactose, ash and fat than the process of ultra-filtration which is used for lower quality whey protein products. Using this sophisticated process, Driven Nutrition is able to produce Natural Whey, a superior Ultra Pure Protein that maintains an optimal macronutrutient ratio, yielding 24 g Protein, 2 g Carbohydrate and 2 g of fat.
Natural Whey contains less than 2gm of fat per serving!
CFM is one of the best methods to extract protein on the market today. This manufacturing process is far superior to some of the others to process an extremely pure isolate. The whole process takes place at a chilly 4 degrees Celsius, or 39 degrees Fahrenheit and leaves almost 100% of the protein and peptides intact. It also yields to the highest amount of undenatured (bio-active) protein available.
Our whey protein isolates are manufactured by a chilling or low temperature microfiltration process and dried by indirect heat. The low temperature micro filtration process allows the whey protein to provide undenatured protein with a full balance of bioactive whey protein fractions, including immunoglobulin, lactoferrin and glycomacropeptides (GMP).
The low temperature microfiltration provides undenatured protein with many bioactive whey protein fractions.
Other whey processing technologies using higher temperatures cause irreversible unfolding of the protein fractions that can drastically reduce the biological activity of the protein. Based on solubility at pH of 4.6, Natural Whey has a mere 3% denatured proteins, which is approximately 10% less than ion-exchange whey protein isolates and typically less than other microfiltration whey protein isolates.
