Is Whey Protein Safe?
Please always read the manufacturers label if you have any special dietary requirements or medical conditions (such as lactose intolerance) or if you have any allergies. With some whey protein powders, there can be some gastro-intestinal side effects (such as bloating, wind and stomach cramps.) This is something though more traditionally associated with the older powders and this isn’t such a problem with the modern brands. Remember the whey protein supplement is just that, a supplement. It should not take the place of dietary protein but provide an additional source. In relation to whey protein’s medical benefits, it should never take the place of any prescribed drugs and your medical practitioner should always be consulted before taking.
