‘Please give me a natural diet. I don’t like taking medicines’
‘OMG…protein powder, It will kill my kidneys and damage my liver’
‘Doctor told me protein supplements are not safe’
Can you relate to these questions??…
No guys, these are absolutely false facts!
Fear of excess protein is another myth which has reached the heights of exaggeration. Excess protein will lead to kidney or liver damage has created dread in the community.
Indian diet is high in carbohydrate and low in protein whereas the western diet is high in protein and low in carbohydrate.
Unfortunately, there is no evident research which says that Indian diet needs to incorporate proteins (high biological Value) in the diet. We refer western researches and start applying to our population.
India is one of the highest ranking countries in the world for the number of children suffering from malnutrition (Protein energy malnutrition).
The prevalence of underweight children in India is among the highest in the world, and is nearly double that of Sub-Saharan Africa with dire consequences for mobility, mortality, productivity and economic growth.
Most of the Indians fail to even meet the RDA requirement then excess of protein in the diet is out of question.
Supplements are natural extracts from milk, nuts, oil seeds etc. They are often associated with steroids and cause too much confusion in your heads.

However, in India, Protein Supplements are Adulterated at a very big level. The distributors mix flour and sometimes other harmful substances in these supplements and then sell it.
The adulteration is done mainly in the imported brands of the protein supplements. This causes side effects in the body because of the harmful substances mixed in the protein supplements BUT the genuine protein supplements are absolutely safe to consume.
Genuine whey protein powder are very rare to find in India since there are very rare genuine protein supplements retailers. Our team have tried a lot these supplements but none of them gave the desired results.

If you still feel there is a doubt, then go and ask in any dialysis center where a patient had excess of whey or proteins and damaged their kidney. I am sure, not a single patient will complain about it. :/
WHEY PROTEIN POWDER IS SAFE & DOES NOT DAMAGE YOUR KIDNEYS OR LIVER
Liver is a center for protein metabolism and kidney flushes the nitrogenous waste. If there is any disorder in functioning, it could be due to dehydration, uncontrolled diabetes, high blood pressure, infection etc.
More than anything else, ALCOHOL and SMOKING are the major reasons for its damage. Therefore, due to its malfunctioning protein is to be restricted in order to give rest to that organ. This doesn’t mean that excess of protein has damaged the liver or kidney.
