A member asked:
What type of protein is best for increasing muscle mass?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back to basics: Generally a complete diet and proper rest after causing the muscle to fatigue with exercise is the best but generally whey proteins are particularly helpful for restoring fatigued muscles. Too much of a good thing can be harmful to your kidneys so check with your doctor.
