Protein bars, shakes and pre-workout mixes are often used to maximize results at the gym. The supplements are also associated with muscle dysmorphia, a study shows.

The article from MSN discusses a study published in the journal *Body Image* which found that teenagers using muscle-building supplements like protein powders, creatine, and pre-workout drinks might be at an increased risk for developing muscle dysmorphia. Muscle dysmorphia is a type of body dysmorphic disorder where individuals obsess over the idea that their body is not muscular enough, leading to significant distress and potentially harmful behaviors. The study highlighted that these supplements, often marketed with promises of quick muscle gains, can contribute to an unhealthy focus on body image among teens. Researchers noted that while these products are popular among young people aiming to enhance their physique, the use of such supplements could exacerbate body image issues, leading to a cycle of dissatisfaction and further supplement use. The findings suggest a need for greater awareness and possibly regulatory measures to protect adolescents from the potential psychological harms associated with these products.
