Why do you need a supplement for protein? isnt it a nutrient that can be found abundantly in nature ?
btw, Protein can only be utilized effectively when EFAs are present. Beware of what you're putting in your body and dont get youself hurt by unnecessary supplement.
The Fatty Acid-Protein Connection Quote:

The importance of balancing protein with the Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs): Getting enough good protein isn't a problem as we in North America get on average 2 to 3 times our required amounts. In fact, we can `overdose' on protein. (It is possible to get too much of just about any good thing.) As we eat too much protein, and reduce our EFA intake, the toxicity of the protein rises. As we ingest more EFAs, the toxicity decreases. This is because without the EFAs, there isn't anything our body can do with the extra protein and it causes us problems. This has been known for over a hundred years. A researcher by the name of Lebedow in 1888 discovered when he fed starving dogs either 100% protein or 100% fat, they died quicker than if they had been fed nothing. But when he fed them protein and fat, they quickly recovered. Protein and good fat must work together to perform their magic within us. For good health they are inseparable. |
EFAs = Parent form of unprocessed n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fats ( not the omega derivatives found in fish oil)
