they are just dried milk!.!.!. look up whey!.!.!. go do a search on it and find out what it is!.!.!. it's milk protein!. milk protein is part whey and part casein!.!.!. whey is absorbed and digested a bit faster than casein, and it's cheaper!. they just take the lactose out, take the fat out, smack some flavoring in there, and jack up the price!. that's it!.
let's say a scoop of protein has 24 grams of protein!.!.!.
a chicken breast has 24 grams of protein!.!.!.
will eating 24 grams of whey protein magically be better than eating chicken!? no!.!.!. it's just more convenient!.!.!. you're at work, there's no microwave, you can't bring food in!.!.!. just get a shaker bottle, fill it with water, and dump some whey protein in there and you got your protein in a cup! that tastes like chocolate! convenient! that's it!
it won't help keep your strength up or anything!.!.!.
if you eat 4 scoops of whey protein per day (i should've said drink)!.!.!. that's around 100 grams of protein (roughly if a scoop of protein has 24 grams protein)!.!.!. you will not gain as much strength or get as much muscle (if you work out with weights CORRECTLY) as you will if you only ate chicken, eggs, lean beef, and fish for your protein sources and ate 100 grams of protein from those sources or more!.
most bodybuilders only use protein shakes for convenience, or if they have to take in 350-400 grams of protein, it'll be kind of hard to eat 100 egg whites everyday!.!.!. not to mention the other 400 grams of carbs, and fats we have to eat!.!.!.
i hope that helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
