Answer:
Dear
Bob,
The risk
and benefits of taking protein or amino acid supplements are based
on the great knowledge that this kind of ingestion needs.
The best
clear example of that is sport competition.
The development
of performances in sports has been always based on protein scientific
research.
When
the scientific results were outstanding the performance was perfect
even jumping doping regulations.
Ingestion
of a good supplement accompanied by the follow up of an expert minimizes
the risk.
The risk
is amplified when there is not knowledge behind the decision of getting
protein or amino acid supplements.
Even
this knowledge is not enough sometimes to prevent the extension of
big health problems in athletes who use protein supplements.
These
health problems are usually hidden in the short term and are unknown
to the public opinion because the characteristics of the business
behind sport competition.
The big
problem and the real risk come when people outside the best performers
in sports realize that they can also get big results with extra protein
ingestion due to the scientific modifications of proteins.
Thirty
years ago it was impossible to build a sculptured body if that was
not gifted by God or genetics.
Today,
everybody from ordinary people to out performers athletes can get
in months the perfect body.
The use
of protein supplement is something overextended with dangerous side
effects that are not measured because their symptoms show up in the
long term.
The fact
that science is one step ahead of regulators and regulators are hand
tied for the panem et circenses (bread and circuses) of
sport entertainment, is a real problem in our society.
Protein
consumed outside the food is a much researched entity .It has been
researched for sports and it has been developed in the last thirty
years with the sword of the regulators on top of its head.
This
situation has created a health concern mainly for young people. It
must not be forgotten the issue that the scientific development of
protein and amino acid supplements has been offered for the scientific
community since the beginning as a big help for elder people.
However
the majority of the users are young people damaging her body and mind
in the long term.
