Will protein powder make me gain weight?

The answer to this question depends on your Personalized Protein Blend formulation, how you are consuming it, and the rest of your dietary habits. There are certain blends we make specifically for people who are trying to gain weight. Those blends intentionally have more carbs and calories in them than some of the other blends we offer.

Alternatively, we also create protein powder blends that are intended to be part of a diet for weight loss, so these are going to lower in overall calories.

At the end of the day, weight loss and weight gain are all about caloric intake. If you have too many servings of protein powder per day, your overall calorie consumption might go up, which can in turn cause you to gain weight. If you're looking to maintain or lose weight, stick to the recommended daily serving for your blend, while paying attention to your intake of calories elsewhere and overall.

Most importantly, your weight depends primarily on the quantity and quality of the whole foods you eat throughout the day alongside your Gainful protein.
