it's recommended to consult a doctor or a nutritionist to determine if you need additional protein in your diet and to discuss the appropriate dosage; Protinex can help increase protein intake, which can support muscle growth and weight gain, but it should be combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise for optimal results.
