Are there any down sides to using protein powder?
2008-02-11 5:55 pm
I've used protein powder before and had no problems. I don't know of any known 'side effects' or any serious health problems that anyone has had from using it. But I did just want to ask first, to make sure. I like the high quality protein in powder form that I can just mix with milk or water. I know that it definitely would require me to drink a lot of water, which I usually do anyway on a daily basis (about 64+ ounces on some days). So other than it possibly being bad for the kidneys if I didn't drink enough water, are there any other known effects?

I found, other than the taste, there were no side-effects.To remedy the taste issue I mixed it with fruit, such as strawberries or blueberries. Bananas aren't bad either, but since they're kind of "chalky," I'd only add them if I was also adding one of the previously mentioned fruits.

None that I know of, if you are healthy. People with kidney disease should avoid taking in too much protein.

I gain weight from just whey protein powder mixed with water or skim milk. I stopped taking it 7 months ago and started drinking more skim milk and eating more fish and chicken. I went from 221 lbs to 192 lbs, with no loss in strength.

Aside from ingesting lots of calories...no.
Note: If you don't work out, the calories will turn to fat...even though you are eating them as a protein...your body will convert them to fat for fuel storage.
So...make sure you hit the gym if you're going on a protein powder diet.

It won't have any negative effect, as long as you're getting the amount of protein you need everyday.

Take only the recommended dosage, don't take more thinking you'll get quicker results. Take anything and everything in moderation but you should be fine, I do it all the time.
