I do workout regularly. My trainer preferred whey protein for growth and recovery of muscles. Is it safe to have whey protein? Please advice me regarding whey protein. If it is safe to have then how much scoop consume in a day or with water or milk.

There are a few things you need to keep in mind before taking protein or any other supplements: 1. Are you doing high intensity workouts? 2. Have you been training for more than 1 year? 3. Are you having good and nutritious food with all macro & micro nutrients? 4. Are you not able to fulfil your protein requirement with food? 5. Have you to compete professionally? If the answer to these questions is 'yes' then you should take supplements. Else there is no need and supplements will not be useful.
