cooked protein powder - Tuesday, July 27, 2004 7:08 PM ( #1 )
I was wondering of anyone knows exactly what happens to protein powder when cooked....does it lose all it's beneficial proteins and/or create something negative???? I mix egg whites and protein powder and cook it up like a pancake. Any ideas??

From everything I've read on other forums there is nothing bad about cooking protein powder. It doesn't break any of the bonds, etc...

Thanks for the input. It does matter, though if you don't want to waste your money. I read somewhere that you should only buy whey that has been separated with cold cross-filter process, or you lose a alot of the absorption later on. Also, lots of powders have live bacteria to aid in the digestion of protein........any other opinions/ideas? STAR

Yes, heat denatures protein, but that doesn't really mean anything in terms of its nutritional value. Hell, most of the proteins we eat are cooked (and therefore denatured), and we aren't exactly wasting away. If you can find a reputable study showing that heating whey decreases its availability, I'd like to see it, but I haven't heard of one anywhere...

Yup that's what i meant. I Havent come across anything saying that heating it wouldnt be back. Infact ur the first person i''ve come across that actually heats whey and worries about it.
