I'm 24 and pretty lean at just 46 kg, but I've got multiple lipomas. I'm thinking about taking a protein supplement to help gain some weight, but I'm worried about how it might affect the lipomas. Could it cause more of them to develop or make the existing ones worse? Anything I should be aware of before starting on a protein supplement?
