Do protein shakes help you lose weight?

Rania Batayneh, a certified nutritionist says that you will not lose weight by adding protein shakes to your diet, but you could lose weight if you use it as a meal replacement.

What happens if you don’t use the protein shake as a meal replacement?

If you add a protein shake to your current daily intake, you will simply pack on the kilograms. This is what most bodybuilders who are trying to increase their size do.

If you do want to add protein shakes to your diet, you should try finding one that is low in sugar and has a short ingredient list. It is also vital to keep track of your calories as this will help you determine if you could add other foods (such as fruit) to your shake.
