Abstract:

Healthcare and medical facilities have recently been challenged by a significant rise in renal and cardiovascular diseases, requiring a focus on more definitive treatment, dietary interventions and supplements. Whey Protein has gained popularity across the globe for its potential health benefits, particularly in the domain of muscle building and recovery. Recent studies show Whey Protein’s possibility of playing a role in managing and improving cardiovascular and renal health. The research aims to analyze the effectiveness of Whey Protein intake for recovering renal and cardiovascular health. This study includes a comprehensive literature review, extractions of data from previous research work and analysis of biochemical data. Based on the research methodology, the comparisons of the findings are stated from the studies of different periods for analyzing the trends and patterns of Whey Protein consumption. Surveys among individuals aged 16-51 synthesize data on the consumption rate of whey protein supplements, preferences and awareness. Based on secondary sources, the adherence factors of the dietary patterns for recovering the renal and cardiovascular diseases in which WP consumptions are ideal have been stated. By focusing on studies, this research represents the efficiencies of whey protein intakes concerning the patients, which is suitable for quick recovery.
