That's incorrect sir. Weight loss is affected by energy balance. Protein intake doesn't cause weight gain unless you're in surplus.

I use it to fill in the gaps, usually 3-4 scoops a day. Can be hard to hit protein goals with meat alone, especially if you are trying to hit higher numbers.

I hire a professional nutritionist and she has me on 275-310 Grams of protein a day. Sometimes I have to throw in an extra scoop to hit the marks she wants me too.


Whey is also my preference, just more goodies In the mix than not.

It spikes insulin which will stop weight lose.

Incorrect sir. Insulin doesn't cause weight gain unless you're in a kcal surplus.

Never said causes weight gain.
I said prevents weight lose.
You can maintain with it.

Good or nah?

Powder value vs real food 🧐

Iso or Whey

A short term spike in insulin has no effect on daily weight gain and loss assuming same total kcal intake.

They tested it with 10g of sugar and 100g of sugar and there was no difference in weight loss despite different short term insulin response. Energy balance is what determine weight variations.

true, but you don't want to spike your insuline multiple times per day with 20 grams of something.

Why would it matter?
