Reason why a lot of Health and Fitness Athletes are dying from a last couple of years!

I account above to an unplanned use and overuse of protein powder or whey powder. In developing countries where athletes run out of money for their dietary and supplementary needs and as Bodybuilding is a very expensive game, they take protein or whey powder as one and only cheap and best way to fulfill their dietary and supplementary needs.  For that, they seem overusing it repeatedly and taking it anytime and any extent they feel they need that. It can be seen athletes taking one scoop of protein powder in every half an hour while working out intensely in gym. There is a psychological fact behind this as well. A good whey protein powder costs $37-$40 in market. With that much cost and feeling a scoop of protein powder will provide them all nutrients with at least 25g of protein, athletes are overdoing it. How whey is being extracted from milk is a matter of concern. There is a very vast volume of cheese consumption in developed countries and it’s becoming popular in developing countries with time. In cheese factories, the pure cheese is being separated from its water content. This water content has small chunks and particulates of cheese floating on water. Whey protein factories separate those chunks and particulates through evaporation and process it to makeover whey protein that is being used by customers or athletes throughout the world. But we have to think, why those chunks and particulates float on so called water. The reason is they have higher plasticity thus lower density than pure cheese that has been separated and processed for use. The low density and high plasticity make them lighter to float. 


When athletes overuse whey protein they get in market and cause its plasticity is higher, the alveoli of their lungs slowly start to get blocked with it with time. And a time comes when the normal functioning of their lungs is rendered ineffective. This atypical lung failure may be the reason why a lot of Health and Fitness athletes are dying from a last couple of years.
