Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for producing kappa-casein macropeptides having nutraceutical properties from whey using two ion exchangers of opposite polarity in series. A hydrolyzed kappa-casein macropeptide nutraceutical food product having less than about 4% total of the hydrophobic aromatic amino acids phenylalanine, tryptophan and tyrosine is also contemplated.
