Whey protein shakes

Whey protein is used by athletes and gymgoers for many reasons. Some people aim to develop muscle growth and strength. Others want to shed weight and improve their workout results. This supplement can help even those who do not exercise. Whey protein boosts resistance, lowers blood pressure, and increases sensitivity to insulin. It may reduce your risk of diabetes when taken as part of a well-balanced diet.

Whey protein may help muscle recovery after exercise in both athletes and nonathletes, according to some studies. Before physical fitness tests, 92 men with obesity were given 0.4 milligrams per pound (0.9 grams per kg) of whey protein divided into three doses per day. Whey protein significantly decreased muscle damage markers when compared to a control group, however, it did not improve DOMS. After resistance exercise, whey protein may help to enhance muscle function. In several studies, whey protein had little effect on muscle repair after exercise. As a result, additional study is needed to see whether taking whey protein after exercise will help with muscle recovery.
