| rdfs:comment | - Whey was a component of milk. The manufacture of cheese involved separating curds and whey from milk, a process which would take days to complete. (VOY: "Mortal Coil")
- Whey, also called milk serum, is what you get when you take milk and drain off all the milk. It is a by-product of agribusiness and has several lucrative uses. Sweet whey is a by-product of making cheddar or Swiss cheese. Removing by-products is one reason Swiss cheese is full of holes. Whereas, sour whey comes from making cottage cheese and yogurt, neither of which have holes to begin with. Whey, like most additives, can be put into most foodstuffs without ruining them, if one adds sufficiently little. Livestock will eat it all day with a minimum of complaining.
- Whey or milk plasma is the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strained; it is a by-product of the manufacture of cheese or casein and has several commercial uses. Whey is used to produce ricotta and gjetost cheeses and many other products for human consumption. It is used as an additive in many processed foods, including breads, crackers and commercial pastry. In addition, whey is used as an animal feed. Whey proteins mainly consist of α-lactalbumin and β-lactoglobulin. Depending on the method of manufacture, it may also contain glycomacropeptides (GMP).

- Whey or milk plasma is the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strained; it is a by-product of the manufacture of cheese or casein and has several commercial uses. Whey is used to produce ricotta and gjetost cheeses and many other products for human consumption. It is used as an additive in many processed foods, including breads, crackers and commercial pastry. In addition, whey is used as an animal feed. Whey proteins mainly consist of α-lactalbumin and β-lactoglobulin. Depending on the method of manufacture, it may also contain glycomacropeptides (GMP). The whey protein separated from this mixture is often sold as a nutritional supplement. In addition, liquid whey contains lactose, vitamins, and minerals along with traces of fat. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden discovered that whey appears to stimulate insulin release. Writing in the Wikipedia:American Journal of Clinical Nutrition they also discovered that whey supplements can help regulate and reduce spikes in blood sugar levels among people with type 2 diabetes by increasing Insulin secretion.
