                     What Happens if You Just Drink Protein Shakes for a Week
Protein shakes are supplements to help you get protein when you don’t 
get enough from food. Replacing food with them is not good for your 
health. We are meant to have a complete diet and we get other nutrients 
as well from our food. We even need a little bit of carbs for our body to 
get energy. Thus, a supplement can be taken as an addition to your main 
food. 
Protein powders can help your body recover after a workout to help you 
build muscle. But selecting the right protein powder is important. These 
days the market is filled with a lot of products that are filled with 
chemicals and fillers. It is important to read the ingredients before buying 
a product.
Protein powders are available as unflavoured and flavoured options. 
There are different kinds of proteins – casein, whey protein, pea 
protein, hemp protein, quinoa protein, etc. You can also include 
protein-rich foods in your diet – legumes, pulses, milk products, eggs, 
soybeans, etc. Deciding the best protein powder for bodybuilding in 
India is not difficult but requires some research. 
Protein is made from amino acids, and there are a category of amino 
acids called EAAs (Essential Amino Acids). These amino acids cannot be 
created by the body and have to be got from the diet. Things to keep in 
mind while buying a product:
1. Check the dealer’s authenticity. 
2. Check the product – MRP tag, barcode, packaging, etc. 
3. Some products have an original seal on them. 
4. Some brands allow for users to check the product authenticity on their site. 
5. Check the quality of the powder – mixability, look & feel, etc.
