I get a CBC blood test every few months and my WBC is never elevated,
despite the fact that I go through a big can of protein powder every month.
Not sure what others have experienced.

I don't know too much about this medical stuff, so could either of you
answer a couple questions?
Why do you get a CBC done every few months?
What is the physiological mechanism for an increased WBC from protein powder
supplementation?
Thanks.

because I get T injections and I was told that I need to monitor hemoglobin
and hematocrit. Also had some other problems before the T injections that
required a CBC. Shit, I get a lot of blood tests.. like, 2 each month on
average. its a wonder that I have any blood left.

You know David.. you're just not telling us!? High WBC count is from tissue
damage, physical stress, infection, etc. Do high protein diets cause
inflammation?? I read that a high protein diet could cause gout. But..
maybe the exercising causes more inflamation anyway. I have no idea. David..
tell us why please.

The only way I could see it happening is if the person had some sort of
allergic reaction to it.
I mean, if you eat animal flesh every day, are you going to get an
elevated white count?
Makes no sense to me. <shrugs>
I'd like to see the "why" explained too.

Hmmm...maybe Pete could chime in here. Seems a bit excessive for monitoring
the possible side effects of testosterone injections.

Haven't a clue. Elevated WBC is, at best, a variable, non-specific, marker
of inflammation, and I've never encountered the notion that protein powder
supplementation was a risk factor for inflammation.
I learn something new every day.

Pretty interesting in that it talks about how various cooked foods
effect white blood cell count.

A 77 year old "study" by raw food advocates is your explanation for the OP's
question?
Wow.
I mean that.
Wow.
I do admire the effort, though.

They tested me every 3 months in the beginning, later twice a year.
Now its only once a year. According to the doctors i see, it doesnt make any
sense to test more often. And they dont even measure T-levels or estradiol
anymore. Unless i point out a specific problem.
I am going tommorow. I can walk in without an appointment. lets see;
Hemoglobin
Hematocrite
y-GT
ASAT
ALAT
Cholesterol
HDL
Triglycerides
PSA
SHBG
Thats it.

They once tested me to see if i had a neuromuscular disease.
The day before i was pounding away in the gym. One certain enzyme was
elevated to such a high level that it wasnt normal anymore.
But it was the result of the stress.

Absolutely not. No, indeed.
Good thing medical and nutrition sciences haven't advanced much in the last
seven decades. Otherwise, a study from 1930 advocates of "raw" food might be
thought to be humorous.
