Safe and especially recommended for pregnant and lactating women as it helps prevent preeclampsia (high blood pressure) and protein in the urine (a sign you are not getting enough protein).
The Benefits of Whey Protein
High quality protein is one of the most important nutrients to consume throughout the day, as protein raises protective HDL cholesterol, lowers triglycerides, improves insulin action, promotes lean muscle growth, and creates satiety and blood sugar balance.
PaleoMeal is rich in whey protein, which has the most health benefits of any protein studied. Whey protein increases longevity in animal studies, and enhances liver and heart glutathione concentrations as well.1 Whey protein is rich in cysteine and leucine, which support the detoxification of mercury and other toxic metals from the body.2,3
Tolerated Well in Lactose Intolerant
Whey protein is also virtually lactose free, and is therefore well tolerated by those who are lactose intolerant. PaleoMeal is nearly free of the allergenic milk protein casein, and is often well tolerated by those who are dairy sensitive.
Better than Soy Whey protein is nature's richest source of biologically active protein. Unlike soy protein, which is low in the amino acid methionine, whey protein contains all the amino acids the body needs in the best balance yet discovered in any food. Whey protein is derived from milk. Lactase enzyme was added to aid in the digestion of the small amount of lactose in this product. Those who are sensitive to milk products may be able to tolerate this whey protein, however, if you are allergic to milk and milk products, use PaleoMeal under the guidance of your health care practitioner.
Technical Details on PaleoMeal Whey Protein
Whey concentrate, not isolate (read more below).
Made from ProSerum protein.
Not hydrolyzed
No cross-flow filtration, no microfiltration, no ultrafiltration, or ion exchange because these methods denature the original, native proteins.
Source of milk for this product is from cows that graze on pesticide-free, chemical-free, natural grass pastures. Grass fed animals have higher levels of essential fatty acids and CLA. The milking cows are never subjected to any growth hormone treatment, chemicals, antibiotics, genetically modified organisms, hyperimmunization or injected pathogens.
Never exposed to high heat temperatures.
Uniquely designed to maintain the full range of all the fragile immune boosting and regenerative components naturally present in whole fresh milk.
Advantages of a Biologically Active and Complete Protein
Paleomeal is 100% biologically active and a naturally complete protein which contains exceptional amounts of immunoglobulins, lactoferrin and covalent bonded cysteine. These are essential for maintaining a healthy immune system and are a critical part of anti-aging. Naturally occurring cysteine is the rate limiting amino acid for intracellular Glutathione production. Glutathione is our master antioxidant and detoxifier. Biologically active proteins repair RNA and DNA, antioxidants (Glutathione precursors), are complete amino acids, protect against ionizing radiation, improve liver and lung function, aid red blood cell production, support chemotherapy treatment, safely bind and detoxify heavy metals, aid wound healing, and help growth and repair of muscles.
The Importance of Cysteine vs. Cystine
This biologically active whey protein contains naturally occurring Cysteine. It is the optimal component for the intracellular production of Glutathione (GSH). Cysteine is very scarce in our modern diet and therefore Glutathione production is limited and deficiency is prevalent. If Cysteine undergoes any heating or processing, as all conventional dairy products do, it is denatured and converted to Cystine. The Journal of the American College of Nutrition Volume 5, 1986, published a paper by Anderson and Meister titled "Intracellular Delivery of Cysteine and Glutathione Delivery Systems." It concluded that when subjects were fed naturally occurring Cysteine, it gave them significantly more production of Glutathione than when fed Cystine. Eleven times more.
Whey Protein Concentrate
The Journal of Immunology 61: 503-508, 1987 reports, "The bioactivity occurs through the ability of the protein concentrate to help replenish Glutathione levels via continuous dietary provision of Glutathione precursors, especially Cysteine, during lymphocyte proliferation, thus supporting an optimal immune response. This process seems to not only increase intercellular levels of Glutathione and precursors at the time of ingestion, but also builds up stores of these substances within the cells which lasts for a substantial post-ingestion time interval."
Why protein concentrate and not protein isolate?
Research has shown that the isolate form of whey actually denature the immunoglobins that boost the immune system. Designs for Health has thought about using this process, but replacing the immunoglobins in the isolate form is cost inhibitive. Therefore the best compromise is to use the concentrate form, which is a true non-denaturing process and would have great benefits on the immune system.

Use in hot beverages?
No, we do not recommend you heat Paleomeal or use it in hot beverages - unless you add it to a warm beverage under 90 degrees. Some of the immunosupportive nutrients will not survive heating. However some of the immune properties as well as the other beneficial aspects of the protein, such as blood sugar regulation and general protein function (hormone production, lean tissue maintenance/growth, etc.) will still be present.
PaleoMeal is a powdered nutrition formula designed to promote peak wellness by optimizing intake of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and micronutrients. The ingredients make this formula ideal for those needing support with weight control, GI health, detoxification, immune issues, heavy metals, and muscle gain. PaleoMeal is made with exceptional quality whey protein, which comes from herds that graze on pesticide-free, chemical-free natural grass pastures. These milking cows are never given bovine growth hormone or any other hormones (No rBST or rBGH), genetically modified organisms or injected pathogens. (*not yet USDA Certified Organic whey).
This whey protein is never exposed to high heat temperatures. The result is the highest quality protein supplement, rich in immunoglobulins and lactoferrin. Free of artificial flavors and sweeteners, PaleoMeal is available in natural vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry flavors. Chocolate PaleoMeal has 3 mg of caffeine per serving naturally from the chocolate.

Benefits Of Protein
Protein raises HDL, lowers triglycerides, benefits insulin resistance, promotes lean muscle growth, promotes satiety and gluconeogenesis. Animal studies show that whey protein increases longevity in aging mice and enhances liver and heart glutathione concentrations.(1) Whey protein provides a good source of the amino acids, cysteine and leucine, which support the production of detoxifying elements needed to eliminate mercury from the body.2, 3 DFH chose whey protein not just because it is an outstanding source of complete protein, but also for its host of other benefits, including immune-boosting.
Summary Of Whey Protein Research:
The lactoferrin and lactoferricin it contains are bacteriostatic(7)
Due to its high cysteine content it raises glutathione levels by 40-64%6
Suppresses appetite via CCK (Cholecystokinin) stimulation (caused by glycomacropeptides)(8)
Increases osteoblastic bone formation and reduces osteoclastic bone resorption9
Shown to increase bone density and to improve urine and serum metabolic indices for osteoporosis(10)
Shown to improve intestinal permeability and protect from GI radiation damage(11, 12)
Shown to reduce E. coli, H. pylori and cryptosporidium infection in the GI tract(13), 7
Phosphatidyl Choline
PaleoMeal contains 840 mg of phosphatidyl choline per serving, which is the most important nutrient for liver support. This is because liver cell membranes are made of phosphatidyl choline. Supporting the liver is important whenever a patient is working with toxic chemicals or lives in a polluted area, takes prescription or over the counter medications, or has any form of hepatitis.
Flaxseed Powder
Flaxseeds contain lignans which have shown positive effects in relieving menopausal hot flashes. Lignans also have anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral activity.(14)
Glutamine
Glutamine is an amino acid which is essential for the health of the immune system and digestive tract. It also helps promote optimal muscle growth and strength. PaleoMeal can be used as part of a protocol for leaky gut syndrome and poor immune function especially with the extra 900 mg of added glutamine contained in the formula.
Folic Acid
Folic acid has been shown in research to lower homocysteine levels. Homocysteine is a toxic by-product of amino acid metabolism that has been linked to atherosclerosis,(4) depression, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.(5) PaleoMeal contains 200 mcg of folic acid per serving.
Glutathione
Glutathione is the body's master antioxidant. Maintaining an adequate supply in the body gives more fuel towards the fight against free radicals which are found in everything including our air, food, and water. Studies show that supplementation with whey protein increases plasma glutathione levels of HIV-infected patients by up to 44%.6
Paleomeal Frequently Asked Questions
Q: If I have allergies to soy can I take phosphatidyl choline found in your Phosphatidyl choline powder, softgels and your PaleoMeal?
A: Phosphatidyl choline is a phospholipid and contains no protein parts from soy. Proteins are the part of the food that most people are allergic to. Those very sensitive to soy should try phosphatidyl choline in small doses at first to see if they tolerate the product.
Q: I understand only the Vanilla PaleoMeal is unsweetened. What sweeteners are used in the other PaleoMeal products?
A: The "Science First" philosophy of Designs for Health dictates that we use no artificial sweeteners such as sucralose, saccharine, or Nutrasweet, as well as not use natural sweeteners like sucrose and fructose which negatively impact metabolic syndrome and other health conditions. In the sweetened Paleomeal products we use only beneficial sweeteners like xylitol and stevia. Our natural flavors DO NOT contain MSG.
Q: Will the xylitol or stevia have any effect on insulin?
A: No.
Q: Are all flavors good for children, pregnant and lactating women?
A: PaleoMeal has detoxifying nutrients, and should cautiously be used by pregnant or lactating women with permission from their medical doctor. For children, adjust serving size appropriate for weight.
Q: Can this be used as a meal replacement?
A: Yes it can. PaleoMeal contains adequate protein (17g per scoop of Vanilla and 11 g per scoop of Chocolate) for a meal and very little carbohydrates, making it ideal for low carbohydrate dieting. The carbohydrates contained in PaleoMeal come only from fiber and natural, low glycemic index, xylitol sweetener.
