TikTok is a popular app where people share new food trends, including a trend called “protein soda.” This idea comes from a TV show called “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.”
Protein soda mixes a protein drink with soda to create a tasty drink. Some people think this sounds good, while others do not. A dietitian is here to explain if protein soda is healthy or not.
Protein soda is made from two parts: a pre-made protein drink and soda. Many people on TikTok say it tastes like an ice cream float. However, dietitians warn that drinking protein soda may not fill you up like regular food.
Also, some protein shakes and sodas have added sugars or artificial sweeteners, which can be unhealthy.
Dietitians recommend getting protein from real foods like beans, nuts, chicken, and eggs instead of drinks. These foods are healthier and better for you.
In conclusion, protein soda can be fun to try sometimes. But do not drink it every day. Eat balanced meals for good health.
