A protein powder is a great way to intake protein while minimising the total calories ingested.

This means if you’re struggling to hit your protein goal for the day without taking in too many calories - a protein powder would help you fix that.

Additionally, if your goal is to put on weight, they could also be of assistance. Protein powders are digested faster than protein from whole foods, allowing us to get sufficient protein into the muscles during the anabolic window (30 minutes post-workout, give or take)

Protein powders are flexible enough to suit just about any goal!
