Teacher told me WHEY PROTEIN is bad for teens.

Someone DELETE THIS THREAD, Some A$$HOLE NEGGED ME JUST CAUSE I ASKED A QUESTION.

[Morbid_Mind]

I'm so fuсking sick of threads like this.

My biology teacher told me that whey contains some type of enzymes that your body produces naturally, and by taking protein you are taking the enzymes, so your body becomes reliant on the whey protein and stops making the enzymes. Is this true? She said it effects the over well being of your digestion system.

It is true with what she said. But it's over a long period of time that this will happen. If you take "whey protein supplements" regularly and constantly for a good 20 or more years. (I'm talking about straight, constant, regularly). Then your body will adapt to not having to make these protein enzymes, and will not produce AS many enzymes as before since they are dependent on this daily schedule you have given them. It's not bad for teens or bad for your digestion system, just don't take it for all your life. Supplements are meant to "support" you, not to "carry" you. If you get that...

Yeah I understand that, that's why they call them supplements, they supplement your diet.

What a load of horse****.

I just told you your teacher is stupid! there are 8 (i think or its 16) non essential amino acids and that probly what he is talking about your body makes its own nonessential amino acids the others are essential. And i believe that the thyroid is the only one that stops produceing anything if you take thyroid pills.

.....there is 8 essential amino acids dumbass.

You can produce 12 though.

[Laxplayer3001]

well i knew it was one or the other.

[scarface6590]

you said nonessential...

[BB is 4 life :)]

.....there is 8 essential amino acids dumbass.

There are way more than 8 essential aminos acids.....and LOADS more than 12 that the body can produce, seen as the naturally produced growth hormone from the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland is compiled of a branch of 198 amino acids.....i dont see where you guys are finding these small numbers.

You lot need to do more research before you start throwing stupid insults at each other and calling each other dumbass!!!!!



Ok.....Dumbass.

[xxfunguyxx]

WHEY + PROTEIN

EATING WHEY= EATING CHICKEN!!!!

except that whey is much cheaper and much faster abosrobed protein

[MarkA15]

What teacher are you talking about this to? Talk to a Chemistry teacher, someone who has experiences in what things are made of. That's who I talked to.

[Enfeebler]

Thats why hes a Bio teacher and not a Nutritionist

[falloutpat]

I know a friend who got lukemia from taking supps.. The doctors said the supps triggered it.

Ok.....Dumbass.

im studying proteins in the body right now. I'm looking at a freaking textbook that says there are 8 essential amino acids. So do YOUR research dumbass..

[scotyg]

this argument is quit amusing

There's 20 main amino acids which are divided into the essential and non-essential amino acids like you said. The body and many species of animals as well as plants derivitize some of the amino acids by adding functional groups to them after they are synthesized into a linear amino acid sequences.

However, IIRC there's only like around 80 found in nature (that are derivatized on proteins), so I don't know what the hell BB is 4 life is talking about with his 198 number. If he's talking about amino acid derivatizes that are used to synthesize different substrates such as the pathways that feed the CAC cycle and other metabolic pathways mainly, then there's tons of those like s-adenosylmethionine which is used for synthesizing creatine, but is not actually like the amino acid methionine (just a derivatized form) at all.

Anyway, yeah... teachers shouldn't talk about things they know nothing about, heh.

thank you for summing it up for us simpletons

rofl there is not 198 diff amino acids
rofl rofl !

Someone DELETE THIS THREAD, Some A$$HOLE NEGGED ME JUST CAUSE I ASKED A QUESTION.

Why dont you delete the thread?

[kliplemet]

it is bad for teens like you, they should starve and die
