Does protein powder give you a higher risk of diabetes? please, need some answers?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Protein powder: Protein powder should not increase your risk of diabetes. High glycemic high carb meals, a sedentary lifestyle, and obesity increase your risk of diabetes. Best of luck to you.
