Toxicity of whey - thinking about dumping it as my primary liquid protein

[pw154]

I've been reading about the toxicity of most whey powders, including heavy metal content (arsenic, cadmium...), whey coming from sick corn fed cows treated with bovine growth hormone, the neurotoxicity of artificial sweetners like aspartame and sucralose, etc.

A youtube search for whey toxicity brings up a lot of results including:

I am not saying whey is bad, I am saying most commercial powders containing whey are bad, and the quality of the whey itself is shit.

There are alternatives like this: http://www.jayrobb.com/cat_proteinWheyChoc24.asp, but they are expensive.

So I've been thinking of dumping whey powder as my primary liquid protein source and replacing with liquid egg whites. I would still use one of the natural organic isolate whey powders available for intra/PWO but this would be the only time.

Am I too paranoid here? Has anyone else dropped whey as their primary liquid protein source? How did it impact your appearance/progress?

Yes you are too paranoid.

You must not have read the available information from TrueSupplements.com about New Zealand Whey.

I think you`re overreacting.

i agree too paranoid, if whey was that toxic there would be a lot of sick people on this board and others

I think he's right on the money about the artificial sweeteners.

Total Garbage.
