What to Look for in a Protein Powder — with Anri, Dietitian at Medihub
Protein powder is a quick, easy way to help meet your daily protein needs. Anri recommends aiming for 20g+ protein per serving.
💪 For Weight Loss:
Choose a high protein-to-calorie ratio (e.g., Metalab). Low in fat & carbs.
⚡ For Weight Gain:
Go for higher-calorie powders with more carbs & fats.
🥛 Types of Protein Powders
Whey Protein – Fast-digesting, great post-workout.
• Concentrate – Cheaper, more carbs/fats.
• Isolate – Pure protein, lower carbs/fats, good for weight loss or lactose sensitivity.
Casein Protein – Slow-digesting, ideal before bed or between meals for long-term muscle recovery.
Plant-Based Protein – From peas, rice, h**p, soy.
• Perfect for vegans or dairy allergies.
• Often blended for a complete protein profile.
✅ Anri’s Tip: Match your protein choice to your goals — weight loss, muscle gain, or dietary needs.
