Hi Samegbor! I have drafts on my sandbox about the health effect on whey protein and is ready to post to the article. Would you mind come and take a look and let me know if you have any suggestions? Here is the link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Yubl/sandbox Thanks and appreciate your effort! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yubl (talk • contribs) 15:27, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
Feedback edit
However there are studies that suggests whey protein has a positive impacts in people that have HIV. HIV affects people in different ways but wasting due to undernutrition is a common symptom.[4]
- "However" implies a contrast, so it isn't the right word to use here.
- You can't say "there are studies" without citing a source, and when it comes to making medical claims, you can't rely on studies which "suggest" some sort of an outcome.
- You need to use a reliable source here. The U.S. Dairy Export Council is a trade body - their job is to convince people to consume more mild products. You need to use things like peer-reviewed journal articles, scholarly books, or textbooks as sources.
What you could do here is document usage - if, for example, it is recommended for people with HIV by some major medical society, you could say that. But you can't make medical claims based on "studies which suggest".
Whey protein is used as a supplement in addition is different forms of exercise and results from the research that , whey protein does help with increasing body mass.Some other research could not determine significant differences between the control and case group because the whey protein does not have much effect on the immune system.[5][6]
- The first sentence here needs some serious copyediting. Right now, it isn't grammatically correct. It also makes factual claims, but doesn't include sources.
- The second sentence could be much simpler - "whey protein does not have much effect on the immune system". It also raises concern about the previous information - if it doesn't have much effect, why is it recommended?
You should also bear in mind that whatever you add needs to mesh with what's already there in the existing article.
Benefits of Whey Protein
This section isn't appropriate for Wikipedia. These are health claims that need to be based on systematic review articles. The tone doesn't work either - it's promotional. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:58, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
