2. If the purpose of exercising muscles is to strengthen the body, increase muscle weight and keep in good shape, there is no need to eat protein powder, because the daily diet is enough to provide enough protein for muscles. And too much protein can't be stored, and too much protein will be excreted with sweat and urine.
3. Protein powder contains many active substances with special physiological functions. They are all afraid of heat. 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.

Applicable people For people with special needs, apart from supplementing essential amino acids with food, you can also choose protein powder as a supplement to protein, but you must pay attention to the dosage of protein powder. After protein is digested and absorbed by gastrointestinal tract, it needs to be processed by liver and converted into its own substance for human use.
At the same time, ammonia, urea, creatinine and other nitrogen-containing substances metabolized by protein in the body need to be excreted through the kidneys. If a person ingests too much protein, it will increase the burden of liver and kidney and have a negative impact on the human body. Therefore, protein is by no means the more the better. The highest intake in protein is 0.92g/kg body weight. If it exceeds this amount, it may endanger human health.
Dosage and Precautions protein intake varies with people's age, weight and labor intensity. During the growth and development of children and adolescents, pregnant women or lactating women generally have a high demand for protein.
Take it 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, and eating too much will cause waste or side effects.
Do not take it on an empty stomach. Eating protein powder on an empty stomach will be consumed 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.
