Avatar f tn I drank whey protein shakes with my son. He is healthy as can be at 3 and he was able to hold his head up since birth and roll over from back to stomach at 2 weeks old. The Dr said it was due to his muscle mass and protein is good for developing muscle.
Avatar f tn Whey protein itself is generally good for pregnant women, however ready made protein shakes can contain additives and preservatives that aren't so good for momma and/or baby.

Avatar n tn protein drinks and whey protein drinks aren't bad for growing boys. protein is the fastest way to spur muscle growth. i don't know what part of the world you live in, but you can find both of those products at Trader Joe's if that market is availible to you. If not you can find them at pretty much any health food store, major supermarket, or vitamin shop. some gyms like equinox sell those products also.

Avatar f tn Hi all! My hubby is wanting to get back in shape eventually after we figured out if he's cleared the hep c virus for sure. My question is, is whey protein safe if you have liver issues? I've heard someone say no but I never knew the reasoning. We put a call into his doctor but I just wanted to see if any of you might know.
Avatar n tn As a result of my hypothyroidism, I have developed and eating disorder over the years which I am finally working on. My nutritionist, who I do like, wants me to drink whey protein shakes (1 per day) to get my protein levels up. A friend of mine with hypo told me to STOP drinking them, and considering I am on new medication (Armour-2 grains) and gaining weight with recurring hypo symptoms (please, do not tell me to eat less, I am eating under 1300 calories a day), she may be right.
1027304 tn?1333973406 Just wondering if anyone knows if the protein shakes are recommended or not advisable. I've read alot of conflicting information on the internet. I know I should ask my OB, which I will next week at my next appt., but until then, i always hate being a pain and making calls into the office.
Avatar m tn ve been eating between 1000 and 1500 calories a day and making protein shakes and have increased protein intake to approx. 80g/day. I lost 8 pounds the first month, but since that time I've now gained 6 pounds....I'm sedentary and for health reasons it is difficult for me to get much exercise, I do walk two or three times a week for about 20-25 minutes. How can I be gaining weight? Is it possible that the increase in protein is causing muscle gain?
4900949 tn?1361380560 Im looking to develop my physique so was thinking of taking whey protein shakes as supplement. Is this ok given my condition?
Avatar f tn I've had a few people suggest trying whey protien shakes so I went and bought one called "designer whey". Well the price was definitely designer lol, cost almost $40 for a big 2 pound tub of it.
Avatar f tn I do remember I used to do those whey protein shakes back pre kids when I was a workout fiend and remember it helping me feel good all around.. thanks, I didn't even think of that. Perhaps another GNC shopping trip is in order. I have kinda turned this detox into an all around health kick anyway. I do cook very healthy and from scratch so my diet is really good.
Avatar n tn I don't think your son needs a shake per se. He should be bulking up on protein and calories. It doesn't really matter which form. I always think the less processed food the better, but if your son prefers powdered protein, it is not really dangerous, it just has a lot of unnecessary additives and I find them difficult to digest. It is important to eat some sort of protein within a half an hour of working out to repair any muscular damage that has occurred.
Avatar m tn is it safe to take homemade whey protein ? Why shouldnt i take whey supplement and how can it affect my disease?
5606554 tn?1372445380 The three common ones are whey, soy, and casein protein. “Whey is the most commonly used, because it’s a water-soluble milk protein,” says Peter Horvath, PhD, associate professor in the department of exercise and nutrition sciences at the State University of New York at Buffalo. “It’s also a complete protein, so it’s got all those advantages.” (Complete proteins contain all nine of the amino acids necessary for human dietary needs.
Avatar n tn s no doubt a good quality protein supplement will help build bigger muscles -- the best is a good whey protein isolate, but there might be a reaction to the dairy -- but yes, you might pay a price. It depends of what you prefer, big muscles or health. The workout is fine, but taking any supplement that exaggerates intake of any nutrient so you get bigger muscles from that workout could lead to problems way down the road.
Avatar m tn Tryptophan is an amino acid. Protein is made up of amino acids. So the tryptophan is there because the protein is there. The label probably lists all kinds of amino acids, not just that one. Tryptophan would be unlikely to be added to a protein shake because it's the amino acid responsible for producing serotonin in the body, and is used as a sleep aid.
Avatar f tn Weight gainers are typically higher in protein than whey protein supplements. However, the protein content comprises a significantly larger percentage of whey protein supplements than weight gainers. A lower-calorie weight gainer may contain 35 grams of protein, while a higher-calorie weight gainer may supply 100 grams of protein. However, given calorie amounts of 620 and 1,860, the protein comprises just 22.5 and 21.5 percent of the calories in these gainers.
926296 tn?1244029537 It has nothing to do with you masturbating. Are you active? Play sports? Always doing something? If you are burning more calories than you are taking in then you won't gain weight. Go to your local vitamin store and ask them what they suggest. I know a lot of guys who take whey gainer, cryatine, protein shakes, etc. and it's worked well for them building muscle mass. Also, I heard eating lots of chicken and tuna helps too. Good luck!
Avatar m tn 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. Body builders state that you need to build muscle that is why you need the protein. You will need a little extra but not double your weight. Too much consummation of protein and if the body does not use it, it will store it as fat. The side effects of too much protein are taxing to the kidneys.
Avatar m tn hello, I'm a 17 year old male and I recently started to use a whey protein supplement. My first contact with it was around April 10 and I had been taking it for about 5+ weeks. After a month of drinking 1,5 scoop post-workout shakes my symptoms appeared...I had a long sleepless night with my heart racing like crazy, my mouth dry as hell and my whole body moving without my permission ( like spasms or twitching)...
