Whey protein concentrate has the highest biological value and protein efficiency ratio as compared to other proteins, which makes it suitable for wide range of nutraceuticals and functional food systems. Whey protein concentrate is largely used for development of texture in food products and food formulations and for clinical diet. It is also used for health beverages, meat products, bakery products, confectionaries and protein supplementation of various coagulated milk products. An attempt has been made to enrich Tomato soup by admixing whey protein concentrate powder at different levels i.e. 0.5%, 1.0% and 1.5%.
