Thread: Best Protein for 15 year old?

Nah they won't affect your height.

Optimum Nutrition 100 % Whey. As often and as much as you can.

Chicken and steak are the best. Tuna works well. You will grow wayyyy more off whole foods than off shitty powders. I gaurentee.

I would eat meat and fish as much as possible, if you are trying to gain weight have a lot of carbs, if trying to lose weight, easy on the carbs. Protein, fish oil, a multi, and maybe creatine are the only supplements you will need for the next 10 or 20 years.

Collegiate Muscle Milk.

We sell a lot to teens in sports or just starting to train and need the micros

just regular food like eggs, chicken , turkey, lentils, beans, fish.......
forget the powder at 15 years old .... fish oil is good too as a supplement

I believe they actually have a special protein for 15yr. olds... It is much different than 17 and 18 year old protein...can't remember the brand though.

You're always better off w/ real food. Protein powder should ALWAYS be a supplement and not a staple. Watch the Muscle Milk if you're not reasonably lean already. It has lots of extra calories which can be great if you're very active and will use the calories. If not, then just watch your consumption. There are plenty of other low cal / low carb / low fat, good quality protein powders that you can blend w/ milk, bananas, frozen berries, ice, PB to add more calories that are less processed or filler.

protein for a growing 15 yo
any protein and lots of it

As above, chicken, turkey, steak and fish! Plenty greens and a decent amount of carbs!

Lift and groooooow

Beef, it's what's for breakfast, lunch, and dinner! I always feel the best after a steak, much more so that chicken or other meats. Powders are just a cheaper quicker way to boosting protein, if it's a cost factor chicken thighs are about half the cost of powder and even with breasts. So unless it's a calorie thing just do food, steak and eggs for the win.

being hooked on protein powders at an early age is not really recommended especially when the body is still growing , these powders are full of artificial ingredients and are not good for the liver and kidney in the long run, they are only used as a back up in some urgent cases.

Steak, chicken and fish are your best source for protein and will make an impact that powder just cant do.

lighten up ^^

Ya you will nourish your body to the fullest by consuming the proteins!
I had ON 100% Gold Whey when i was 15 and that really helped me alot!
Have a look at benefits,side effects and good effects of Whey Proteins !

At 15 there is no need for protein powder. Just eat lots of protein rich foods.

If you want it naturally then meat and fish are best among all. Else Optimum Nutrition 100 % Whey is the best.

According to the studies done to date it wouldn't do either. Calcium has been proven to strengthen bones and is theorized that taking higher amounts of calcium may help increase higher peak bone mass however a study has not proven that to date. They believe 70-80% of that is inherited genetically.

Protein is necessary for the muscles building and health improvement.
It is more better to take the natural protein foods.
The best protein for the young person are eggs, milk, yogurt, cheese, meat, fish, and green vegetables.

Any comment?

Best protein would be lean chicken breast..

Well, you are too young to use any type of supplements. I don't recommend to use any supplements to you. But if you are heavy bodybuilders (but i think you are not in this age) than you can consider whey protein.

hiiiiiiiiii

I prefer tuna, because of its omega 3. Though I still consider chicken and other mean for protein, you are 15 and still young, those foods are still good for you

when your 15 your gonna be putting on a ton of muscle if your lifting and eating a fairly decent diet with a fair amount of protein. But I would recomend something like cytogainer if youve got a body frame that needs to be filled out along with a healthy huge diet full of meats and nutrients. At your age the most important thing you can do if you're lifting at all is EAT EAT EAT EAT EAT EAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You'd be amazed what your body can do when you fuel it properly.
