Whey protein intake
Hi,
I workout with weights atleast 3 times a week and about 1-2 days of cardio. I don't have any health issues so far.
I take 1 scoop of whey protein supplement in the morning with milk. Can this harm me ? Have heard stories of kidney and liver failure with the protein shakes. I have been taking this from last 3 years.
Please advise!
Unless the total intake of Protein is excessive, you will not face any issues related to kidney or liver failure. However you need to consume more water and more fruits and vegetables to maintain a balance of the pH levels.
Also, the artificial sweeteners in the Whey protein can cause harm to the body. That's why I recommend certain brands of whey protein which are free of artificial sweeteners.
