Its always a sad incident when someone dies especially a young athlete ... Ironical is all the hullabaloo over the death ...
All the leading news papers are misleading the masses that the death is due to Protein powder ...
There might be many other factors that could lead to the cardiac arrest BUT not the protein powder.
My appeal to all those Jackal of all is that first of all they should know why exactly a person needs protein / protein powder...
Protein powders come in various forms. The three common ones are whey, soy, and casein protein. Whey and Caesin are the milk byproducts…Whey is most commonly used, because it’s a water-soluble milk protein and it is a complete protein (Complete proteins contain all nine of the amino acids necessary for human dietary needs.)
All Though most athletes prefer other sources of lean protein like meat, fish, eggs, chicken , dairy products but in very specific circumstances, protein powders can be useful. Being the easy and convenient source of complete, high-quality protein it is being consumed.
What are the uses of Protein? Some of them are mentioned here under -:
For a teenager – A teenager needs more protein because at growing age more protein is required for the cells to grow.
For an athlete – Any athlete who is trying to build muscle mass, trying to gain strength, trying to get more speed, trying to get more agility requires protein (In any form)
Apart from these there are several functions in which protein intake plays a major role.For example muscle repair and growth, for bone mass, for hair growth, for nails / teeth, secretion of certain hormones and enzymes. I mean protein is an integral part in our diet , not to be missed if you want to live a healthy life.
My advice is Eat clean , Train smart ..Use your brain , don't just imitate the stuff which you get from internet. All is not worthy. HAVE PATIENCE AND MOST IMPORTANT-- FAITH IN YOUR COACH...Don't take risks , they are not worth.
