Abstract
Advances in whey processing technology and investments in research and
development have combined with a greater understanding and recognition of the
potential health benefits of Whey Products. As a result both ingredients
suppliers and product manufacturers alike seeking to exploit the potential of
an area which many see as currently "exploding". Undoubtedly the functional
benefits of certain Whey Products (in particular concentrates and isolates)
are driving renewed interest and market momentum. But less-hyped areas should
not be forgotten: use in Animal Feed and in human food use as a food (as
opposed functional) ingredient will fuel demand. Lactose' use as a relatively
cost effective, low glycemic index, carbohydrate source should not be
overlooked either as this category will see greater volume growth in the
future than overall Whey Products.
