Which Protein Supplement is Best for Good Muscle Growth
Which Protein Supplement is Best for Good Muscle Growth
• Protein is used to help with muscle growth and repair. Protein
contains amino acids that help with muscle health. Since the market is
filled with products, selecting the
best protein supplement for muscle growth is confusing. It is always
good to compare products before buying. Some things to keep in
mind are the protein source, protein content, etc.
Let us look at some of them in detail:
• Protein Source: Protein powders come from different sources like
plants, dairy (milk), meat, etc. Example MyProtein Vegan Protein,
Oziva Plant-Based Protein (Rice, Pea, Quinoa), NakPro Whey Protein,
etc.
• Protein per Scoop: Various brands contain different protein quantities
per scoop. It is good to select a brand that has more protein per
scoop.
• Your Need: Some people don’t need supplements as they gain protein
from their diet. Check your need and then opt for powders if you
need to.
• Quality: Go with known brands that are certified and tested by a third
party. Check the source of protein, and how it’s manufactured. Also, buy
from authorized dealers, sites or the brand directly.
• Goal: Be clear about your goal for taking protein. Is it to build lean
muscle? Is it to help with muscle recovery after your workout? Do you
work out? Etc.
• Price of protein: The cost of protein per scoop or the protein per gram is
different for different brands. Don’t just compare the MRP of the product
directly. Example: Nutrabay Whey Isolate Chocolate costs Rs. 2.32 for
protein/gram, whereas MusclePharm Combat Whey Isolate Chocolate
costs Rs. 3.33 for protein/gram.
If you are allergic to something – say Soy or Milk, then buy the product
that doesn’t contain those things. Example: whey protein is made from
milk and should be avoided by lactose-intolerant people. Go through
the list of ingredients to see if there is anything you can’t eat.
