Abstract

Dietary protein is necessary for numerous bodily physiological processes. For healthy individuals, the current Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) is 0.8 g/kg/day. On the other hand, active people who want to get the most out of their training adaptations appear to benefit more from a protein intake of at least 1.4-1.6 g/kg per day. To meet this requirement, protein powders are frequently used. The claims of increased muscle mass, fat loss, improved performance, and enhanced recovery markers have a significant impact on the popularity of protein supplements.
