Just don't overdo it and don't eat protein powder as a meal. Protein powder needs kidney filtration to be absorbed, and excessive use will increase the burden on the kidneys. Besides, if you don't get enough exercise, you don't need protein powder to increase protein's intake, otherwise you will still get fat.

Dosage and precautions:
1. Take according to the recommended intake. Because the raw materials and processes used by each manufacturer are not exactly the same, the label instructions have their own recommended consumption of protein powder. Users should not increase or decrease at will. Eating too little can't achieve the expected goal; Eating too much will cause waste or side effects.
2. Do not take it on an empty stomach. Eat protein powder on an empty stomach. Protein powder will be eaten as a general "hot food", wasting valuable high-quality protein sources. So, eat some other foods before or at the same time as eating protein powder. Patients can only eat liquid, and can add protein powder to milk, soybean milk, cereal, malt extract and other foods to eat together.
3. Eat warm or cold, not hot or hot. Whey protein powder contains many active substances with special physiological functions. They are all afraid of heat, and once heated, they will lose their activity, thus greatly reducing their biological potency. Therefore, whey protein powder must not be cooked or burned, but can only be dissolved (mixed) in water, porridge, malt extract and other foods below 40℃, and can also be eaten as a cold drink.
4, add seasoning control. Protein powder can be added to various foods, such as sweet with sugar and salty with salt, but not too much. Because too much sugar and salt intake is not good for human health. Also, don't add monosodium glutamate to eat protein powder, because protein powder itself has a certain flavor, and the proportion of amino acids in whey protein powder is better, and monosodium glutamate is a component of monosodium glutamate, which decomposes glutamic acid after metabolism in the body. Adding monosodium glutamate to protein powder is tantamount to gilding the lily.
5. Don't eat with acidic drinks. Apple juice and other beverages contain organic acids, which will form clots when encountering protein powder, affecting digestion and absorption.
