Is Powdered Protein Good for You?

• Protein powders are not harmful on their own, but
  you need to keep in mind a few things while
  buying them. The first is your bodys behaviour
  are you allergic to soy or milk? Then do avoid
  products that are made from these things. Other
  things are
• Authenticity Go for products that are authentic.
  Always buy from a known dealer or a known
  website. Check the barcode, and the genuineness
  seal of the product.
• Fillers Some products contain fillers, that
  dont have any nutritional value. They are added
  into a product to increase the weight. Avoid
  fillers in products.

• Ingredients Check for additives in the product.
  Some brands add chemicals like artificial
  sweeteners, colors, flavours, emulsifiers,
  thickeners, preservatives, etc. that are not good
  for health.
• Protein Content Check for the protein content in
  the supplement. If it is less than 60-70, then
  it is better to select other products. Some
  brands add a miniscule amount of protein in the
  supplement along with other filler substances.
• Your diet is also important. Dont rely only on
  supplements as there is only so much they can
  help. Do have a healthy meal filled with natural
  protein sources like Dal, veges, etc. Each
  persons protein requirement also differs based
  on their age, weight, activity, diet, etc.
  Instead of following something you read online,
  always check with your nutritionist about how
  much supplement to take daily (scoops, etc.) some
  people take protein supplements with water while
  others take with milk. Milk can make you put on
  weight and can be hard to digest since it already
  has a lot of fat and carbs.
