Does your teen consume protein supplements? Here’s what experts say жесток порно видео

Using those on-the-go protein shakes, bars, powders and other supplements can seem like an easy fix for those looking to up their protein intake. But when it comes to teenagers, pediatricians worry that they may be relying too much on supplements.

Two in 5 parents say their teen consumed protein supplements in the past year, with teen boys being more likely to consume the supplements every or most days than teen girls, according to a new C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll released on Monday.
Of the 46% of teen boys who consumed protein supplements in the past year, more than half their parents said it was for muscle gain. Of the 36% of teen girls who consumed the supplements, parents said their daughters used protein supplements more for weight loss or to replace a meal when they were busy. Nearly 1 in 5 parents say their teen is not taking in enough protein.

“Marketing can lead people to believe that a higher amount of protein means a product is healthier — but that isn’t necessarily true!” said Sarah Clark, Mott Poll codirector and a research scientist in pediatrics at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, via email.

“Instead, parents and teens can look for a more balanced product that has some protein, along with other key nutrients and fiber — but very little (or no) added sugar or caffeine.”

The Mott Poll was conducted in August with 989 parents of teens ages 13 to 17. The margin of error is plus or minus 1 to 7 percentage points.
