Thread: Protein Powder?

Are they really worth supplementing or is just a nutrient dense diet better? I'm trying to wrap my head around the health/hypertrophy benefits. I'm completely in the dark with this subject

Whole Foods are always best while dieting for weight loss. Supplements tend to not fill the void(aka stomach) as far as satiation. They do help though. Like I said, if you have the money, they work great. Using them properly is the key otherwise they would be a waste of money. Think of EEAS as a helper of building muscle tissue and bcaas providing extra energy during training sessions. All supplements are controversial but they are necessary for me personally. I mainly only use Whey Isolate(which has bcaas+glutamine), EEAS, and BCAAS, and creatine. I also am a fan of carb powders when needed. I love cottage cheese at nighttime. IMO Whole foods are always best and supplements come second. I like NowSports Essential 9 EEA powder, it’s plain and I can change the flavor. Hope it helps.
