Answer: Medical research shows that consuming too much protein -- more than 30% of your total daily caloric intake -- could actually harm your body. Adding more protein but not more calories or exercise to your diet won't help you build more muscle mass, but it may put your other bodily systems under stress. Ideally, you should consume 0.36 grams of protein for every pound of body weight, according to recommended daily allowances (RDA) set by the Food and Nutrition Board. So if you weigh 170 pounds, you need about 61 grams of protein each day. Athletes and fitness advocates may claim benefits for whey protein based on their personal or professional experience. These are individual opinions and testimonials that may or may not be supported by controlled clinical studies or published scientific articles on whey protein. In other words exercise, eat sensibly and enjoy natural protein in your everyday diet.

Question: Is whey protein good to take if you are trying to lose weight with proper diet and exercise? Just need some info on this product, if it is ok to take even for females, and how it should be used-like in place of something or in addition to your regular diet? Does it make you bulk up? Is it a protein replacement and does it help build muscle? Please advise - appreciate it greatly!

Answer: Whey protein is great for losing weight because it helps your body get the most out of your workouts. When you exercise your muscles need to recover. The more energy goes into building and tensing those muscles the more fat is burned. Whey protein also helps you control your appetite, a very important part of losing weight. Instead of filling up on food after exercise you can get that same "replenished" "full" feeling without stuffing your face. http://www.designerwhey.com

Question: Is whey protein good for getting a toned look? I'm going for the toned look (eg. brad pitt in fight club/troy, david lee roth etc). I'm exercising correctly and eating healthly. I get my protein from different sources (eg. chicken, eggs, tuna, milk, yogurt). Would whey protein help me? or is that just for body builders who want big muscles?

Answer: Yes, whey protein is a great protein source, and has many benefits outside of simply building muscles. When slimming down and toning, protein helps you maintain your muscle mass, which keeps your metabolism high. It helps maintian your muscle mass, because, outside of water, protein is the most plentiful substance in your muscles. Protein is also harder for your body to digest than carbs or fats, so you burn more calories by eating more protein. Additionally, protein also acts as a mild appetite suppressant. Whey protein in general is easily digested and processed by the body. It has a large amount of essentail amino acids which also helps to maintain your muscles. Whey protein is also relatively cheap to purchase, and there are a lot of great tasting whey protein powders available. As a result I believe that supplementing your diet with one or two whey protein shakes per day is an excellent idea to get toned.

Question: Is whey protein good for regular use? I need to build up some muscles. Friends are taking whey protein every time before they go to the gym. Is regular use of those whey protein really good for the body? Later on, once your body is used to that, what will happen if you decide to stop taking any more? I am asian, and I am not looking for huge muscles, but do need a little extra. Any recommendation? (in Canada)

Answer: Ah my asian fellow eh. I believe so if you form good diet and eat right. I use whey protein basically after workout like between 0-30 minutes. I'm believing you do not want to build up muscle like bodybuilder but don't worry when you workout your muscle basically takes stress from workout so in order for you to put on some muscle mass, after working out use whey protein with delicious blend of either fruit or your choice. You can use lots of website, magazines (muscle & fitness) ect. for more help. I used to be skinny stick-man and now i did put on some muscle mass. Good luck.

Question: Is whey protein good for women too? I workout in gym for an hour or so and intend to lose weight.? Just today I have bought a whey protein box and intend to start consuming from tomorrow. Is there any side effects for women? I am a total veggie hence protein intake is very less. In fact I have lost a lot of hair which I feel is due to very little protein intake. So any suggestions???

Answer: Yup, I use whey protein isolate and it's very good for women. I have had no side effects and it has been helped me greatly to tone. I intake 2 scoops (50g of protein) after I workout. Although, since I am using a pure form of protein then that's why I haven't gotten any side effects. However, my brother used this whey protein mix that is used to make protein milkshakes and it had flavoring (like vanilla, chocolate). He got really bad acne from it. So I would be careful and buy the purest form, which is whey protein isolate. It cannot cause any side effects.
