You do not require whey protein. Balanced diet with regular exercise is sufficient. Excess protein intake over long periods of time can damage the kidneys. As per your exercise regimen, your total protein requirement can be met with proper dietary planning.

Hello, Protein is not the only component responsible for building muscles. only by taking whey once cannot build body. even while consuming whey or some supplements special precautions are to be taken with the amount of calories you consume. There are more natural sources which will help you improve your overall health.

You can take 1 tablespoon of whey protein in a day if you gym regularly discontinue it if you stop gymming then take only high protein foods like all milk and milk products, eggs, pulses, sprouts, nuts etc. Which is always healthier way to gain weight naturally .whey protein will not give any side effect after discontinuing.
