Protein supplements are widely used among people going to the gym. The effects of these substances on blood biochemical, hematological, inflammatuary, glucose metabolism markers and lipid profile is not well known. The previous studies on this issue give inconclusive results. So the investigators aimed to investigate this subject and compare the blood tests between subjects using and not using protein supplements.
