Although the 7 times Mr. Olympia, Arnold Schwarzenegger had previously been known to have added alcohol in his protein shakes, the Expert Scientist dismisses its use at all fronts. He commented, “Even if Alcohol helps you get to sleep, especially if you drink quite a bit, 3-4 drinks or more. You can notably predictably disrupt the sleep quality of the sleep that follows.” He also talked about how Alcohol can evidently dehydrate the consumer.
Not only alcohol, but Dr. Michael Israetel also advised his followers to not take excessive protein either. According to his Dinosaur analogy, it can actually have more disadvantages than is usually known.

According to Israetel having an excess protein intake can have digestive disruption. He also said how an increased amount of protein intake never has an increased amount of benefits and hence it is much like killing the Dinosaur planet with about 10 nukes which are not even necessary. He said, “There’s definitely a cost. Physical cost. There’s a Diarrhea cost to that cause if you have that much protein your p**p starts to look interesting and there’s just no clear benefit.”
