Abstract

A process for the production of a whey product which contains whey proteins in a form which is heat stable at a neutral pH. An aqueous solution which contains whey proteins in a form which has not been rendered insoluble is prepared and the Ca, Mg, citrate and/or phosphate concentrations of the solution are adjusted as is its pH to conform to the relationships: PA0 [Ca+Mg - citrate]<0 mM when 5.5.ltoreq.pH<6.2 PA0 [Ca+Mg - citrate]<4 mM when 6.2.ltoreq.pH<7.2 and PA0 [Ca+Mg - citrate - phosphate]<4 mM when 7.2.ltoreq.pH.ltoreq.9.0
