Frequently Asked Questions About Protein Powders

What is protein powder and what is it used for?
Protein powder is a dietary supplement made from concentrated protein sources such as whey, casein, egg or plant-based ingredients. It is used to support muscle building, aid post-workout recovery, increase daily protein intake and help with weight management goals.
What is the difference between whey protein and casein protein?
Whey protein is fast-digesting and ideal for consumption immediately after a workout to kickstart muscle recovery. Casein protein is slow-digesting and releases amino acids gradually, making it best taken before bed to support overnight muscle repair. Both complement each other in a complete nutrition plan.
How much protein powder should I take per day?
The recommended daily protein intake varies by body weight, fitness goals and activity level. A general guideline is 1.6 to 2.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight for active individuals. Always follow the serving instructions on the product label and consult a nutritionist for personalised advice.
What is mass gainer and who should use it?
Mass gainer is a high-calorie protein supplement that combines protein with a significant amount of carbohydrates and sometimes healthy fats. It is designed for individuals who struggle to consume enough calories through food alone and are looking to increase body weight and muscle mass. It is not suitable for those looking to lose weight or cut body fat.
Is it safe to take protein powder every day?
Yes, for most healthy adults taking protein powder daily within recommended amounts is safe. Protein supplements are food-based products and are generally well tolerated. However, individuals with kidney conditions, liver issues or specific medical conditions should consult a doctor before adding protein supplements to their diet.
