Yes, it is okay to drink protein shakes everyday. However, it’s important to remember that protein shakes are a dietary supplement and should not be used to replace food.

Experts recommend aiming for a daily protein intake of 1.6 - 2.2 g of protein/kg of body weight/day, while athletes can increase this number to 1.8 - 2.7 g/kg/day [1,2]. Protein shakes (like Elo Smart Protein) can help you meet your protein requirements.
