It’s been a long time since we’ve had an article on sports nutrition on this blog. We fill the gap and today we will talk about the harm of protein. More precisely, about the myths that are widespread among gym beginners. People who don’t welcome sports supplements in their diet.

There’s just a boom in healthy lifestyles these days. I have only a positive attitude about it, movement is life! This includes regular exercise in the gym, running in the street (even in winter), play sports, swimming. If you don’t know which gym to choose, check it out. Proper nutrition – a daily diet of healthy foods. And, of course, sports protein. Skeptics, especially among older people, consider all sports nutrition products as chemistry.

Although in brief, protein is a protein derived from soy, eggs, milk. Therefore the variety of products is enormous whey, egg, casein, soy. Any dairy plant can set up the production of sports protein powder. Obtained from ordinary foods, what harm can we talk about? But so the topic of our article is protein harm. Then what do some people have in mind.

The harms of protein for men.
Stress on the kidneys. When protein is broken down in the body, a certain amount of ammonia is released. It is the kidneys that excrete this element from the body. Therefore, if you sit on a protein diet or consume protein shakes, the load on the organ increases. If your kidneys are healthy, you won’t feel any discomfort or pain and it won’t do any harm. If you have problems with your kidneys, of course it is better to refuse protein intake.

Of course, you should not consume protein all the time. An overdose can damage the function of internal organs. When gaining muscle mass such protein intake can be detrimental. Follow the instructions in the sports product description, do not overdo it. Remember that supplements are supplements.

Protein harms the liver. The most important element in the digestion of breakdown products. Sponge is the second name of the organ. If you have problems with the liver, then of course you should consult a specialist and receive recommendations on the use of elements of sports nutrition in the form of protein in your diet. After an examination, if of course you are aware of the liver problem. The verdict will be brief – you can consume protein or not. With a healthy body, you can forget about the harm of protein.

The harms of protein opinion of doctors
Some argue that consumption can lead to decreased potency in men. I would clarify here, not a quality sports supplement, but over-indulging in steroid elements (chemo) can impair male potency.

But I agree that a decline in male potency occurs in the use of a questionable product. Therefore, give preference to proven manufacturers before purchasing. Advice of the experienced, coach also take note.

Do not drink, eat protein in large doses. The result of rapid growth of muscle mass will not come, but damage to the health of the internal organs will bring. As described above.

A weakened erection does not come from eating a protein sports product. And it comes from a large physical load with large weights, which leads to overtraining and with a minimized time for recovery. Obligatory full rest (not only sleep), competently compiling a diet of a bodybuilder or fitness model. Include fish, meat, vegetables, porridges, fruits.

Intolerance. Every person is different, both in their normal diet and in their protein intake. If you are allergic to sports nutrition. When using it, there are digestive disorders, vomiting, nausea, diarrhea. Then we can say that the harm of protein is on the face. But even in this case, first check your body. Consume the recommended dose. Look at the reaction. If necessary, reduce the individual dose. If not, give up on sports nutrition.

In summary, the following harms of protein for men occur when

  • overconsumption
  • liver problems
  • kidney problems
  • body intolerance
  • product falsification

For the rest I advise to use protein supplements for obtaining quality results in building a muscular figure with relief, pumped up muscles. Train regularly, eat right, involve your children, relatives and friends in sport.
