The Best Protein Powder in India with No Side Effects

Protein is one of the most essential macro-nutrient that makes up our diet. It is more than necessary to help build muscles, repair and recover exercising muscle fibers, maintain healthy hair and skin, build DNA and RNA and what not! But the main cause of its use by fitness enthusiasts is for the simple reason of fat reduction and weight maintenance.

So, when you do go for a protein supplement, how do you know which one is not going to give you side effects?

As far as consumption of protein supplements is concerned, most people who have not had a good experience in terms of digestion will presume the idea that protein shakes come with side effects and should be avoided. But on the contrary, if you understand how protein shakes work, they are rather harmless and more beneficial.

The only “side effects” that protein shakes can lead to are something as harmless as:

• Bloating/ gas
• Stomach cramps
• Diarrhoea
• Nausea

However, these are only temporary changes you will notice and only on 2 occasions, i.e., either you are intolerant to lactose in whey concentrates or if you take protein powder in excess. Once you swap whey concentrate with isolate or reduce the quantity of whey that you take, you will notice all of the above symptoms fade away.

However, there will be several products with numerous claims and benefits but paying close attention to the details in the nutrition facts label that will help you understand the product better.

Not all products are as healthy as they claim to be. While some products might actually be containing healthy ingredients, some will contain filler ingredients just to make the product more tasteful and to add to its texture.

Here’s a list of things that you need to check out and how OZiva’s Protein & Herbs meets the needs:
