First, it helping you preserve lean body tissue (particularly during exercise) as it delivers bioavailable amino acids and cysteine. Second, it supporting your immune system, as it contains immunoglobulins. Third, it maintaining blood pressure levels that are already within the normal range, and promoting healthy vascular function. However, many side-effects of whey protein consumption are known. Whey protein is likely safe for most children and adults when taken by mouth appropriately. High doses can cause some side effects such as increased bowel movements, nausea, thirst, bloating, cramps, reduced appetite, tiredness (fatigue), and headache.

Use of whey protein powder for HIV patient
The reason whey protein is known as support immune system is that whey protein contains immunoglobulins. Therefore, it is sometimes used by HIV patient as a support for their weakened immune system. However, there is evidence shows that early research suggests that taking whey protein for 4 months does not improve immune function in children with HIV. So it is still questionable whether whey protein powder has a positive effect on HIV patient in promoting support for their immune system.
