Question:

Does whey protein count as animal protein???

I heard animal protein can cause cell mutations. Is whey protein animal protein?

Thanks!!!

Yes. Whey is derived from milk. I'd be interested to know your source on the cell mutations, though.

I'm not sure exactly what whey is, but I know it's a milk derivative, therefore is an animal protein. I'm not exactly sure about the whole mutation thing, I avoid animal products for a different reason. I guess you never can be too safe though!

Yes, whey is from milk, which comes from cows, goat, or sheep, usually. What causes the cell mutations is likely from the growth hormones, steroids, and antibiotics found in most commercial milk. Raw milk, straight from the cow, has the enzymes to digest itself, and is tolerated well even by people highly allergic to milk or lactose intolerant
