Leprino Foods continues to support independent studies regarding health benefits of whey and its derivatives. One study, completed in 2006, evaluated the benefits of whey protein concentrate added to the diet of patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis. The study showed small, but significant affects of supplementing the diet with Le-Pro Plus, a functional whey protein produced by Leprino Foods. Lead investigator Mary Harris, PhD, RD, Colorado State University, concluded that Le-Pro Plus whey protein supplements produced a small but significant effect on protein status in hemodialysis patients as measured by increases in serum prealbumin levels from baseline.
