All isolates are exposed to acid processing. Your body cannot assimilate proteins in isolated form.

Avatar m tn There is no definitive answer to your question, which is why it's hard to tell what's true and what isn't. Nobody really knows. Heavy protein intake for long periods of time can damage the kidneys.

Avatar n tn I would recommend that you consume 30-40 grams of high quality protein, ideally coming from a mix of whey protein and milk. This can best be done by mixing a scoop of whey protein along with a cup of skim milk. I also suggest to use whey concentrate not isolate! Whey is high in the BCAA. This is a good meal before your workout! Consume this mixture about 1 hour before your workout 1 cup Skim Milk, 1 Scoop Whey Protein Mix these two ingredients together.
Avatar m tn To answer your questions, you can eat regular food to get the protein you need without using the supplements. Eggs and milkshakes (with skim milk) give you additional protein as the same as the protein shakes. The recommended dosage of protein is 1g per kg of weight.

Too much consummation of protein and if the body does not use it, it will store it as fat.

Avatar f tn There are a lot of good protein powders on the market that are not meant for "muscle building", but protein is the building block for muscle and muscle burns fat.

I biomedical engineering, I was exposed to all kinds of heavy metals and have never shown any levels above the norm. I guess if you were a heavy eater of shellfish or catfish from contaminated waters, it might be possible, but I'd have a medical blood test done to validate the hair test.
Avatar n tn t buy any organic food, because natural soil always has heavy metals in it. Seaweed, which leaches heavy metals out of the body, also contains heavy metals. So of course buying the natural plant will reveal natural levels of heavy metals -- particularly if it's wildcrafted, since virgin soil will always contain heavy metals. Seaweed is the basic fertilizer of all organic farming, and it will always contain trace amounts of heavy metals.
