People who do regular exercise have a small increased need for protein," according to Dr Helen Crawley, reader in nutrition policy at City University London. "But it is unlikely they need supplements of protein in any form as most western diets are already high in protein and people who are active eat more food and therefore these needs are generally covered.
"Most of the specialist foods available just have added skimmed milk powder to make them higher in protein, so whether a bar or drink or powder, they are just an expensive way of taking in extra calories."
Carbohydrate is the best fuel for exercise, whereas recovery from exercise is aided by taking low protein, carbohydrate-rich drinks and foods, such as banana and squash, she explains.
But beyond being useless, the supplements could even cause harm, Dr Crawley says.
"High protein intakes can in fact be dangerous and can damage kidneys and therefore protein supplements are not recommended," she says.

Woe betide anyone who doesn't tell the creatine freaks what they want to hear.

It only took Two replies to make a thread about protein intake into a creatine thing.

Well done folks.

Supplements are supplements are supplements, all are ****e.

Since there is so much spin and ulterior motives in the supplement industry, it's often impossible to tell who is correct.

On one hand, you have doctors and scientists who often have little to no practical experience in weight training, gaining muscle and monitoring their protein intake.

On the other hand, you have many supplement companies who set up their own "institutes", complete with their latest reseach, studies and findings, which claim highlight the consequences of not taking enough extra protein (e.g. all your hard work in the gym going to waste, losing whatever muscle you already have etc).

Combine this with a photo of a huge bodybuilder who attributes all of his muscle gains to a particular product and you have a supplement which will fly off the shelves....

Do you think fish oils are useless?

I love the way people on the internet completely disregard a doctor who has spent many years learning about nutrition.

I think she is alluding to the culture of the average gym goer. Do you have any idea how much protein some people take in, i know people who are eating kilos of meat a day and taking shakes on top of that. There is a good portion of that group who are eating little to no fruit and veg iand are avoiding grains (according to the internet grains are now unhealthy) in an attempt to lose weight.

It is crazy and it will cause long term health problems.

I heard a great quote recently about how to manage your diet.

"Eat food, not too much, mostly plants"- words to live by i feel.

Did you mean to say "my posts" instead of "supplements"?

g'em

Orando Broom Infracted for trolling. Hanley infracted for rising to trollbait and not using the report post function.

Thread locked. Disaster waiting to happen. OP (or anyone) if you want to generate a good discussion thread it's a good idea to actually include some sort of rebuttal or counterargument instead of relying on other people to do it for you.
