Whey Protein Allergenic Properties and Cold Filtration Method
The chapter explores the potential allergenic properties of whey protein and discusses the use of cold filtration method to filter out immunoprotective compounds. It also compares cold filtration to microfiltration in winemaking and recommends alternatives like egg and casein protein for better satiety and digestion.
I answer all these questions and many more in this podcast with Jay Campbell, a Champion Men’s Physique Competitor and the best selling author of the Testosterone Optimization Bible and of The Definitive Testosterone Replacement Therapy Manual: How to Optimize Your Testosterone for Lifelong Health and Happiness... (along with a host of other books linked to in the resources section below).
As a 17 year TRT patient, Jay is a master at manipulating and tweaking the human endocrine system to optimize performance and health. He has experience working with thousands of men and women in optimizing their nutrition, exercise, fitness and fat loss. Jay makes it his personal mission to affect positive and rapid change in each and every client who enters the mastermind program.

- Berberine is similar to Metformin, but isn't as regulated and is much more expensive
- Berberine doesn't have a good reputation among people in the know
- Metformin is the most studied drug in the world (because of diabetes)

- World Link Medical
- You need testosterone to aromatize into estrogen to confer the protective effects to your biological system
- You'd never want to take an aromatase inhibitor

Other notes from Jay:
-Metformin Study: Mitochondrial Dysfunction
-This was on a thoroughly compromised patient population group of Morbidly Obese Diabetics who were using anywhere from 6-9 grams of Metformin per day. If you do further searches, it’s actually the opposite. Metformin reverses Mitochondrial Dysfunction. There are many, many others.
-Metformin Study: Lactic Acidosis - The fear of this condition happening was based on a study from the 40s (still attempting to find it) also in a massively compromised patient cohort. These patients were in end-stage renal failure and also obese and diabetic.
We must be mindful that correlation does not equate to causation. All of these linked studies show that Lactic Acidosis rarely happens if ever in normal patients population groups. Check them here, here and here.
Elevated plasma metformin concentrations (as occur in individuals with renal impairment) and a secondary event or condition that further disrupts lactate production or clearance (e.g., cirrhosis, sepsis, or hypoperfusion), are typically necessary to cause metformin-associated lactic acidosis (MALA). As these secondary events may be unpredictable and the mortality rate for MALA approaches 50%, metformin has been contraindicated in moderate and severe renal impairment since its FDA approval in patients with normal renal function or mild renal insufficiency to minimize the potential for toxic metformin levels and MALA. However, the reported incidence of lactic acidosis in clinical practice has proved to be very low (
