- Why Fitness Fanatics Are Now Paying $13 A Pound For Whey Protein
- Runtime
- 1:51
- Date posted
- 21 days ago
- Description
- You have probably noticed it in the grocery aisles: protein is everywhere. From protein water and crisps to protein-infused espresso martinis, the sudden explosion in demand has caused the price of whey protein to skyrocket. In the US, whey protein has jumped from around $2 per pound in 2023 to as much as $13 per pound in 2026—a massive 250% increase in the past year alone. Industry experts say we can't simply make more to meet the demand. Whey is a byproduct of cheesemaking, and there is currently a severe lack of facilities equipped to turn liquid whey into consumable powder. The squeeze is being made even worse by Gen Z's viral "protein-maxing" gym trend and the rise of GLP-1 weight loss drugs like Wegovy and Zepbound, which prompt doctors to recommend extra protein to offset muscle loss. With US stockpiles running dangerously low, manufacturers are racing to build state-of-the-art processing plants before prices shoot up even further.
