The Health Benefits Of Protein Water

By Iva Cannon


Drinking water is a very healthy practice. In fact, the right amount of water to drink per day for an adult is 8 glasses. This ensures that the body remains hydrated and all other body organs function optimally. However, to provide even healthier alternatives, nutritionists and manufacturers have developed protein water using whey protein for drinking. The quantity used can vary from 5 grams to 30 grams.

To many, they are known as the protein shakes and are available in different brands as products of different manufacturers. Whey protein is dissolved in purified water to produce a flavored drink. Depending on the whey content (5-30 grams), the concentration varies. They are available in flavors such as strawberry, chocolate, and vanilla. While it is possible and easy to just buy whey and make your own drink, walking into the shop to buy your favorite brand seems to be the best alternative.

There is no better method of weight control than using the whey shakes. By drinking them, you ingest the much-needed protein. In the process, you don, t ingest calories and fats as in other foods like meat. The amount of carbohydrate present is very low, as it is only used for flavoring. The people practicing diet find it very effective. In the same way, the shake works best for the body builders interested in lean muscles and the vegetarians.

It is also very easy to digest and thus you don't have to worry about stomach aches and constipation. However, the patients with liver problems are required to use it with the doctor's permission as the liver may not cope with large quantities of protein.

The shake also offers a very effective way to deal with the hunger pangs and is thus a very good solution to help avoid snacks. Studies have proved that a meal full of proteins helps one feel full faster and thus helps one eat less by the end of the day. The satiety or feeling fullness helps with appetite control which in turn help minimize unhealthy snacking. By being able to prevent overheating, it is easier to control weight, and thus reduce chances of obesity or overweight and the resulting ailments.

The whey rich shakes come with an important benefit known as increased brain cognition. The high content proteins are important in maintaining healthy brain function and better mental performance in general. It increases the level of acid tyrosine, which in turn helps one become more alert and generally energetic.
