I Have Gone Through 2 Heart Surgeries And I Am Scared After Seeing The Increased Metabolic Rate
Hi, My name is Aarya, I have been taking 100% whey gold standard. I have gone through 2 heart surgeries and I am scared after seeing the increased metabolic rate. I mean I am satisfied with this product but at the same time I am scared too. I take one scoop every week and I am scared? is it something to worry?
Hi Aarya,
Since you have a medical condition, it's best that you consult a medical doctor with regards to your diet. What you eat and drink can have serious implications on your existing heart condition. We are in no position to offer you any advice on whey protein consumption.
For your information, increased metabolic rate is not the same as heart rate. Having a higher metabolic rate simply means that the body is able to burn fat faster. Fitter people with more lean muscle mass tend to have higher metabolic rates. Whey protein does not directly raise the metabolic rate. It helps boost metabolic rate by helping muscles to grow bigger and stronger. With bigger muscles, the body's metabolism automatically increases.
Also, different people have different responses to all types of food. Some people can't drink milk, while others can't eat beef. So you have to be aware of your own health and body condition. Whey protein is a relatively safe product designed for the masses but still, there are people who feel uncomfortable after drinking whey protein. They then switch to egg protein.
As mentioned earlier, consult a qualified physician on whether it's safe for you to drink whey protein shakes. Your doctor will be able to give you proper advice on whether whey protein is good for your health or not.
