Detailed Answer:
Hello, welcome to ask a doctor services. I have read your question.
it is best to add fresh protein to your regular diet. You can take organic plant based protein powder or Pea protein powder. Elite 100% whey also works well for men.
While choosing protein powder, you should keep in mind the nutritional value, ingredient quality, customers review.
Fresh protein is always better than protein powders as protein powders when taken for a longer duration have side effects.
