No they dont.Originally posted by eagle:Excess intake of protein can put stress on your liver/kidneys...
And protein powder, just think of it as a "liquid chicken breast"
Almost all of our food is genetically modified unless you eat organic or something.
Lastly, protein powder is not some miracle powder.Like the word says "supplement"(To aid or assist in)
Btw i take powders only once in a moonlight.I dont think your muscle will be different or what if you take or dont. -
If you have talked to him before, he uses it sparingly.Originally posted by eagle:For me, unless I wish to reach the size of our dear OPT (I saw his picture; he's huge), I would not take it... or rather, if I were to take it, it would be very sparingly. I've a friend who was very thin, but decided to train hard one day. He has now 15" arms without any intake of powders or creatine at all. What he feeds himself? Just normal homecooked food by his mum everyday... -

Check out what excess protein do.
Note the words 'extra workload'.
Liver breaks down excess protein => increased stress/workload on liver
End result is more urea => increased stress/workload on kidneys

Once a day is not sparingly in my opinion. Sparingly is to me once a week/month, or even less... -

Extra renal/liver activity does NOT mean extra damage. This is what so called medical professionals tout as the "damage". All they can point to is studies that show extra ACTIVITY, but there has been NO studies that show that a high protein diet causes kidney/liver failure in healthy individuals. Zero. Nada. Zilch.Originally posted by eagle:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_in_nutrition

I didn't claim extra damage. I claimed extra stress/workload. Which is what you have said, "extra ACTIVITY"Originally posted by galapogos:Extra renal/liver activity does NOT mean extra damage.

And there's nothing wrong with extra activity, which is why there's nothing wrong with a high protein diet.Originally posted by eagle:I didn't claim extra damage. I claimed extra stress/workload. Which is what you have said, "extra ACTIVITY" -
just increased stress on your liver/kidneys. These are not organs we want to stress often, unlike muscles.Originally posted by galapogos:And there's nothing wrong with extra activity, which is why there's nothing wrong with a high protein diet. -

Hes also a fighter. -
I forgot to add on:Originally posted by galapogos:And there's nothing wrong with extra activity, which is why there's nothing wrong with a high protein diet.
You are right that there's nothing wrong with a high protein diet. I was referring to excess protein. If everyone's workout was as tough as yours, it would be very hard to reach the stage of too much excess protein in diet.
He's strong. But personally, I'm more inclined to your size than his... Partly because I don't believe in getting too big. Personal opinions again, I guess...Originally posted by Simon Dean:International strength and conditioning coach.

There's no evidence that supports anything that you have just said.Originally posted by eagle:just increased stress on your liver/kidneys. These are not organs we want to stress often, unlike muscles. -
Doesn't extra activity (that you have already agreed) stresses it? Note: Stressing does not mean causing problems.Originally posted by galapogos:There's no evidence that supports anything that you have just said.
Extra activity on any organ = stressing the organ. Perhaps you disagree with this statement... If so, we may just be on a different frequency. -
Well you're kinda insinuating that they cause problems by saying "These are not organs we want to stress often". As long as you agree that it's not a problem, then we're on the same page.

Agree it's not a problem... But I still think long term stressing is unhealthy <-- this is personal opinion. -
so protein powder won't get u big? damn i was hoping it did. not that i want to be that big but at least something like Johnny in Fantastic 4. you know the part where he came out of the shower and dried him via "self drying".
something like this:
the chest needs some pump though. -
