From past 5-6 Month I have started strength training and now my strength has increased so I want to know can I take whey protein or protein supplements to gain muscle. Thank you.

Dear lybrate-user, There is no harm in taking whey protein or protein supplements to gain muscle. But it depends on quality and quantity of strength trainning. Protein is very essential to keep the sugar levels under control. Do go for a personalized diet plan for best results. Warm Regards,
