If the protein powder does not come from sources that the person is allergic to, no.Whey protein powders or soy are especially good for women. Also if it is used as a sole source of food it can be dangerous. And not just for a 15 yr. old.

It can be taken to replace a meal, and breakfast is a good meal for it.The higher protein level first thing in the day sets you up to not get as hungry and jump starts your metabolism.It could also be a very good meal replacement at other times also where you may not be able to fit a healthy meal in..

It is also good to not go without some kind of food for fuel more than 3 hrs between meals. But not sugars or white type breads, they lower your blood sugar to fast after a cple hours and tend to put xtra fat quickly on your body, unless you need it for a strong sport you are doing at the time.

Your body actually learns to lower it's metabolism if you skip meals. You will gain weight easier in the long run if you do this .

The meal can be small as long as it includes some sort of protein or whole food such as a piece of fruit or cheese etc. Watch saturated fat contents, nuts and seeds are very good in between meals, but only 1 ounce. They contain fats but usually good ones but any fat will make you gain weight after a while. Just keep it simple and the powder could work well .

Is it OK for a twelve year old that plays five sports to have protein powder in his diet?

It depends on what type of diet they is on to begin with. If protein powder is being used simply as an alternate source of protein, then by all means go for it. It provides an excellent amount of protein while skipping out on high amounts of fat and sodium that other high protein foods contain. Check out a whey protein (I prefer vanilla) or even a whey protein isolate blend for even more protein and less carbs/cholesterol. However, if they are already eating large amounts of protein/food, then it wouldn't be necessary to introduce even more protein into the diet. If you were thinking along the lines of "active kid+protein+more protein=better" then there will be little no benefit to saturating the body with more protein. A healthy, balanced diet full of vegetables and fruit would be better than excess protein. Best of luck!
