Date Apr. 20, 1995Aglucone isoflavone enriched vegetable protein whey, whey protein and processes for producing and recovering such are disclosed. Aglucone isoflavone enriched vegetable protein whey is made by treating whey comprising glucone isoflavones with a sufficient amount of beta-glucosidase enzyme or esterase enzyme or acid to convert at least a majority of the glucone isoflavones to aglucones and thereby provide an aglucone enriched whey. An aglucone enriched whey protein is obtained by recovery of the protein.
