Dr. Mercola's USDA Certified Organic Miracle Whey Protein Powder is sourced from U.S. cows that are granted year-round access to pasture and made exclusively from protein concentrate with no added hormones or antibiotics.

Natural grazing and pasture feeding of cows enhances the nutritional quality of the milk and cheese as well as that of the whey protein, which contains naturally-occurring compounds:

• Leucine - This amino acid signals the pathway called the "mammalian target of rapamycin" (mTOR) that increases protein synthesis, thereby helping to promote muscle growth.
• Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) - This is a healthy type of omega-6 fatty acid found primarily in pasture-raised beef and dairy products.
• Each serving of Organic Miracle Whey provides 20 grams of protein and 1.5 grams of immune-supporting Immunoglobulin G (IgG).
• USDA Certified Organic, Soy-free, GMO-free, Gluten-free

Whey protein - often referred to as the gold standard of protein - is a near-perfectly balanced food containing the essential amino acids, beta-glucans and immunoglobulins your body needs for energy production, immune function, muscle retention and growth.
