There is huge misconception that no matter what the situation is, protein will help build muscle. This is totally not true.

If you a working out on a daily basis and are constantly tearing muscle fibers and rebuilding them to make your muscles bigger, stronger, and quicker, then ABSOLUTELY YES. A protein shake every morning will decrease your recovery time and allow you to workout more often and longer.

However what you need to be aware of is that all of the protein that your body doesn't use is converted to fat. If you're drinking a protein shake designed for people who are working out, and you're not, then you are actually hurting your body.

Hope that helps!

On a side note, DO NOT completely cut all the fat our of your diet. You need fat to survive. Every single one of the cells in your body has a membrane made up of fats, and as cells grow and divide, they require more and more fat.
