Excessif? Come on man. Please try harder to communicate. Better yet go try these actual products instead of posting nonsense. I've been using this stuff for 2 years. The results are great. If you want to troll me with nonsense that just says you are a critic who talks before actually trying something. Thai food in general is full of additives that are not good for you without much of the good nutrients which these powders have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacessit Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Natural protein sources such as meat, eggs and fish are all that is required in a healthy diet. As a processed food, protein powders increase the risk of bloating, gas, and constipation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excessive cheese causes constipation. Fish is often high in mercury too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These stuff are simply overprised and don't add anything, it is purely marketing. Listen to the scientists and not The fake charlatans. Just eat more meat, chicken, eggs all rich in proteins. Incorrect. His doctor is totally wrong. Powders work out 50% cheaper than meat. Powders are backed by science. Doctors only do 10 to 20 hours training in nutrition and die 5 to 10 years younger. Doctors are drug pushers. Why take nutrition advice from drug pushers who die younger? Doctors make money off sick people. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He exercises plenty so needs it . Not all doctors are numpties on nutrition but most are. Unless you have kidney issues you can't overdose on protein.

I have been told by a physio I am in the top 10% of my age bracket in terms of physical fitness. Maybe your father is fitter than me, that does not mean much. Blood pathology is a more scientific indicator. I evolved my diet independently - no processed foods, as much meat, eggs,fish, cheeses and yoghurt as I want, low carb high fibre vegetables. Limited sugar intake, no alcohol. It works for me, and I don't want or need artificial powders with BS advertising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The protein powders are "processed", maybe heated to extremely high temperatures when produced? Not sure ... there are mixed reviews out there. Some people think they're healthy, but I think it's best to get protein from food. Also, eggs and meat will have many other nutrients that the protein powders don't have. Also, COLLAGEN powder maybe is necessary to supplement as it's an essential nutrient and hard to get from food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
