Whey protein can be used in some circumstances to promote weight loss, though the data regarding this tends to be mixed. Individuals need to understand how to use the supplement if they want it to affect their weight goals. Taking whey protein by itself will not be effective at making individuals lose weight. The substance does not affect metabolism or hunger levels. However, if individuals use the protein to improve their athletic performance, it may have the side effect of helping with weight loss. There is no guarantee that they will see the number on the scale go down, but as they build muscle, their body will burn fat. They will end up with a more sustainable muscle-to-fat ratio, which will help individuals feel more comfortable and strong.
