Protein Intake in India Expands Beyond Fitness to Everyday Nutrition
Protein consumption in India is evolving beyond fitness and bodybuilding, becoming part of everyday nutrition for busy adults seeking convenience. While many already meet their protein needs, products like Horlicks Protein and Nutrabox cater to those integrating protein into regular meals. Experts emphasize that increased protein intake alone doesn't build muscle without exercise, highlighting the importance of separating marketing claims from scientific evidence. This shift reflects changing perceptions of protein as essential for balanced daily diets rather than just muscle growth.
