Abstract
Milk products are widely consumed by individuals in the US population in the form of fluid milk and milk-derived products and ingredients. Milk is a good source of calcium, which plays a role in maintaining bone health. In addition to calcium, the whey protein fraction of milk contains basic proteins that have been demonstrated to increase bone metabolism and inhibit bone resorption. A specific basic protein fraction in milk (Milk Basic Protein; MBP) was tested in an acute oral toxicity study, teratology study, subchronic oral toxicity study, and reverse mutation assay and no treatment related adverse effects were found. MBP has been evaluated for its use as an ingredient in food and concluded to be safe for its intended use.
