Is Musashi Hybrid 92 A Good Dietary Supplement For Children?
my 10 year old son is a vegetarian, no meat, no egg, and eats a lot of junk food. I was worried about his growth so i ordered this protein supplement, which says it can be used for upraising dietry protein (its not whey, its a mixture of different forms of protein - "musashi Hybrid 92"). But the instruction says its "not suitable for kids under 15.... seek a doctor for 'dietry supervision'"...Is it safe for him??

Your son is too young for any dietary supplement. Give him natural foods for growth. Presently if his height weight must be known so can have counsel better. Give him goodnproteiin like curs, milk,soya,paneer ,dal which will help him to grow. Also give him good fruits and vegetables to get good energy. Make him active through habit of exercise. Rather than supplements emphasize more on natural nuti. It will be long term.
