Can the Maulana Sahab (DB) pl. explain the Islamic teachings about performance-enhancing natural/chemical products ?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by ShariahBoard.org
Can the Maulana Sahab (DB) pl. explain the Islamic teachings about performance-enhancing natural/chemical products ? My main concern is about the use of Whey Protein, like Muscle-Milk etc. It is generally believed that whey proteins source is animal fat as against the Soy Protein which is vegetarian source. Is the whey protein halal ?
If you know with certainty that the chemical compounds after going through their chemical process become completely modified such that they are changed in their true essence than to work for such a company is permissible. If after the chemical process the compounds remain on their nature without a change then a person should be cautious in working for such companies because in a way it would be contribution towards wrong things.
