Types Benefits OF Protein SUPPLEMENTS

PROTEIN SUPPLEMENTS
  • Proteins are one of the most essential components
    required by the human body to perform various
    functions. With giving the body energy to perform
    different activities, proteins also facilitate
    other major functions such as developing and
    repairing body tissues, creating hormones. The
    human body therefore requires a regular supply of
    proteins to function smoothly. This can be
    ensured by consuming food rich in these
    components which cannot be always possible given
    the time constraints that all of us face.

Pay attention to the symptoms that can arise due
to protein deficiencies
  • Edema
  • Weight Loss
  • Thinning of Brittle Hair
  • Pale skin
  • Weakness

How much protein is enough?
  • While people generally believe that an athlete
    needs more protein than others, this isnt always
    right. It depends on an individuals athletic
    performance, body weight, workout intensity,
    energy intake, age and dietary protein quality.
  • As per the general rule of thumb, the amount of
    protein required is 1.2 to 1.4 g/kg of body
    weight for endurance athletes while it is 1.2 to
    1.7 g/kg of body weight for strength training and
    power athletes. With greater workout duration and
    intensity, more protein is required. Around 2
    g/kg of body weight helps in the prevention of
    muscle loss in athletes with reduced energy
    intake.
  • It was also found that an increase in workouts by
    elderly people enhanced the response to protein
    intake, which suggests that increased physical
    activity may prevent and help recover the loss of
    muscle with aging.

Protein Supplements Types Benefits
  • Whey Concentrate Ideal for beginners, whey
    concentrate is a basic form of protein
    supplement, easily available in any store.
    Containing 70 to 85 percent protein, whey
    concentrate is ideal for those who wish to gain
    mass. This protein supplement is not only
    cost-effective , but also easy to process by the
    body. You can have whey concentrate both pre- and
    post-workout sessions.
  • Whey Isolates It is the most expensive version
    of whey protein, due to high Biological Value
    (BV) and less fat and lactose content. Whey
    isolate is considered as the best source of
    protein with 90 to 95 percent of protein content.
    Isolates are great when taken pre and post
    workout, as they get quickly absorbed and supply
    the needed nutrients.

    isolates pre- and post-workout as they quickly
    supply nutrients to the muscles and help in
    muscle development and recovery.
  • Casein Protein The source of protein in this
    supplement is glutamine known to enhance immune
    system. This protein supplement is ideal for
    those who want to consume protein supplement as a
    meal. It takes 5-7 hours to fully breakdown,
    during which, the body keeps absorbing and

    highest quality of protein available. By

Protein Supplements Types Benefits (Cont.)
  • Soy Protein This is the most famous protein
    supplement among vegans. Though, not much popular
    among professional bodybuilders this supplement
    comes with all basic nutrients such as glutamine,
    arginine and BCAA, and helps in muscle
    regeneration and development. Also known to
    dilate blood vessels, soya protein can be taken
    anytime.
  • Milk Protein Isolate A mixture of casein and
    whey proteins, Milk protein isolate supplements
    contain amino acids similar to soya proteins. In
    milk protein isolate supplements, multiple
    sources of proteins are blended together. If,
    however, you are looking for a concentrated
    source of protein, this type of supplement may
    not be an appropriate choice.
  • Egg Albumin When it comes to the sources of
    natural protein, egg white has no parallel. A
    favorite among bodybuilders, egg albumin
    supplements are prepared from egg white and do
    not contain amino acid. Though, it is unadvisable
    to take egg albumin supplements at night or
    before you go to bed, it can be consumed as snack

    supplements are prepared by separating or
    isolating non-essential components of soybean. It
    has approximately 90-95 percent protein content
    and does not contain fat or carbohydrate.

PROTEIN Differentiating Factors
  • Taste Options Protein supplements are available
    in numerous taste options, with vanilla and
    chocolate being the most preferred choices. Here,
    it is important to mention that when it comes to
    buying any protein supplement, make sure that the
    one you select consists of minimal added flavors,
    as more often than not, the added flavors are
    nothing but crystallized sugar.
  • Cost Protein supplement powders generally range
    from 2000 to 5000 INR. Nonetheless, you can also
    get these supplements at a lower price by
    availing the discounts offered by both online and
    physical stores. Among other options, you can

When To Use Protein Supplements
  • Whey Protein is quickly digested, the only time
    you would want to take whey protein alone is
    within 30 to 60 minutes after a strength-training
    based workout. At any other time, you would want
    to slow down the digestion of the protein by
    eating it with other foods.

Advantages of Protein Supplements
  • Helps in weight loss Studies have proved protein
    to be more satiating than fat or even
    carbohydrates. This effectively means a reduced
    calorie intake for individuals opting for protein
    supplements. A study conducted by researchers at
    the University of Ulm in 2010 establishes the
    authenticity of this fact. The subjects
    participating in the study were divided into two
    groups. One group of subjects used high-protein
    meal diets as a replacement for high calorie food
    while the other group continued with the normal
    diet. At the end of the study individuals from
    the first group were found to lose weight and
    body fat at an enhanced rate than as compared to
    those constituting the second group.
  • Helps in gaining and building-up lean muscle
    Studies have found protein to be extremely potent
    in aiding the body in building lean muscle.
  • Proteins are the essential building blocks.
    Moreover, a protein rich diet helps the body in
    repairing damage caused to the tissues due to
    work out or any physically taxing activity.
