Kefir Whey from Paleo Powders is whey protein concentrate from European grass-fed pasture cows, fermented with kefir cultures for over 24 hours and then freeze-dried. Along the way, part of the protein is pre-digested into small peptides and most of the lactose is converted. Protein contributes to a growth in muscle mass.

Kefir, the king of fermentation

Kefir comes from the Caucasus, where it has been made for centuries with kefir grains: small, cauliflower-like clusters of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts. According to tradition, the grains were passed down there as family heirlooms. Paleo Powders applies that principle to whey, the protein that is left over when cheese is made.

Over 24 hours of fermentation

Paleo Powders ferments the whey protein concentrate with kefir cultures for over 24 hours. During that time, the cultures convert most of the lactose and cut part of the whey proteins into smaller pieces, such as di- and tripeptides. The kefir whey is then freeze-dried, without high temperatures. What remains is a light protein powder with a mild, fresh taste.

Use

Mix one scoop, 20 grams, with 300 ml of water, juice, a smoothie or a shake. A 500-gram jar provides 25 servings. The powder contains cow's milk.

What's in a scoop

Paleo Powders uses whey protein concentrate. The powder is 80% protein and naturally contains a small amount of milk fat and milk sugar. A 20-gram scoop provides 79 kcal, 16 grams of protein, 1.4 grams of carbohydrates (of which sugars) and 1.1 grams of fat. Whey protein is a complete protein: it contains all the essential amino acids.

Made in the Netherlands, in small batches

The fermentation takes place in the Netherlands, in small batches. No sweeteners, flavourings or other additives go in: the label lists a single ingredient, kefir-fermented whey protein concentrate (cow's milk).

Grass-fed European pasture cows

The whey comes from European cows that graze outdoors. In winter, when there is little fresh grass and the cows are housed, they are fed silage. Grains, maize and soya are not used as feed, and concentrates only when really necessary.

Fermented, and therefore paleo

In the strictest form of the paleo diet, dairy is off the menu. Fermented dairy is a different story: fermentation is one of the oldest ways of processing food, and during fermentation most of the lactose is converted. That is why Kefir Whey fits into a paleo way of eating.

Light and easy to mix

Kefir Whey has a mild taste and dissolves easily in water, juice, a smoothie or a shake. With 1.4 grams of carbohydrates per serving, it also fits into a low-carb diet.

Kefir Whey alongside collagen and bone broth

Whey protein is a complete protein with all the essential amino acids. Per 100 grams, Kefir Whey contains 19.5 grams of the branched-chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine, and 1.0 gram of glycine. Collagen and bone broth consist mainly of collagen protein, which is rich in glycine and hydroxyproline but is not a complete protein. So they complement each other well.

Curator's note
Whey protein, partly pre-digested by kefir cultures.
Selected by Ergomax

Paleo Powders ferments whey protein concentrate from European grass-fed cows with kefir cultures for over 24 hours, then freeze-dries it without high temperatures. As a result, part of the protein has already been cut into small peptides and most of the lactose has been converted.

A light, pure protein powder for anyone who finds regular whey harder to tolerate. One ingredient, no additives. It contains milk.

What you still wanted to know.

Paleo Powders recommends one scoop of Kefir Whey, 20 grams, mixed with 300 ml of water, juice, a smoothie or a shake. Because the powder is 80% protein, one serving provides 16 grams of protein. A 500-gram jar provides 25 servings.

Kefir Whey from Paleo Powders is whey protein concentrate that has been fermented with kefir cultures for over 24 hours and then freeze-dried. During fermentation, part of the protein is cut into di- and tripeptides and most of the lactose is converted. The whey comes from grass-fed European pasture cows, and no sweeteners or flavourings are added.

During the fermentation of over 24 hours, the kefir cultures convert most of the lactose, so Kefir Whey contains little lactose. Many people with lactose intolerance tolerate it well; if your intolerance is severe, start with a small amount. Kefir Whey is not suitable if you have a cow's milk allergy, because it contains milk protein.

Paleo Powders ferments the whey protein concentrate with kefir cultures for over 24 hours, in small batches in the Netherlands. The kefir whey is then freeze-dried, without high temperatures. No sweeteners, flavourings or other additives are added.

Whey protein is a complete protein containing all the essential amino acids; per 100 grams, Kefir Whey contains 19.5 grams of the branched-chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine. Collagen is not a complete protein, but it is rich in glycine (21.6%) and hydroxyproline, which are barely present in whey: Kefir Whey contains 1.0 gram of glycine per 100 grams. So the two complement each other.
