Whey protein is great for everyone! Easy, Convenient & Cheap if in bulk.
It is a very versatile product that provides Protein macros.
Your 16, suppose your doing any resistance training/ physical activities? By all means go ahead.
But on the other hand, if you are able to get more than enough protein from your daily meals ex: chicken, eggs etc... you might consider.

Well..you need to do some research. Go to walmart and check for the 6 stars whey protein. They do the job for a good price.

It depends and varies from person to person. If your lifting i'd recommend hitting 1g-1.5g per lb of bodyweight. Unless your body fat is high.
