If you believe that protein powder is bad, then it is just your opinion.
Of course you are entitled to your own opinions,
but it doesn't mean that your opinions are facts or true.
There are many types of protein powder.
Some of the most popular ingredients are whey, casein, egg, soy, among others.
Both whey and casein come from milk.
Whey is a liquid by-product of cheese production.
It can be freeze-dried and turned into powder form,
so it is a natural ingredient in powder form, just for convenience.
It also has much less fat.
Protein powder is mentioned in many articles or web sites of health, nutrition, medecine and exercise.
None of those considers protein powder bad or addictive.
Typically there is nutrition label on the containers of protein powder.
It describes how many grams of protein, carbohydate and fat per serving.
Usually an average person should consume per day about 1g of protein(from all sources) per kg of body weight.
For very active athlete, it can go up to 1.5g or 2g per kg of body weight per day.
It is very easy to measure the quantity and consume it within the proper range.
I also know of many people who triain and consume protein over the years.
They are happy with it and they also train hard and look good.
Now let me review your points.
1. There is no prove from any credible health journal or medical journal that protein powder damages digestive system. Also no report of dependency or addition on protein powder. No negative impact on normal diet.
2. It is very easy to measure and control the amount of protein powder consumption.
Regarding the over-consumption causing problem in kidney, that point is laughable.
Over-consumption of anything, even the popular food(shrimp, roast beef, chicken, pork, cheese,..,) in your suggested buffet restaurants would also cause health problems. Do you now blame shrimp, roast beef, checken, pork?
3. The ingredients of most protein powders come from milk, egg, soy, etc. that are presented in convenient format. There is nothing unnatural or mysterious there.
4. The consumers of protein powder have poor muscle definition? It is such an absurd comment.. If a person consumes a lot of calories, so he has a lot of fat, then even if the person has a lot of muscle, the muscle would be hidden beneath a layer of fat, so muscle definition will be poor. It has nothing to do with protein powder. It has everything to do with consuming too much calories, which can come from eating too much of anyhing. Remember that protein powder also has calories. If a person thinks that protein powder is a magic cure, and assumes that eating lots and lots of protein powder would automatically makes the person look lie Mr. Universe, then the person is deeply misguided.
I don't like GMO, nor food with massive pesticides.
Where did you read that protein powder is made form GMO or food with massive pesticides?
To equate protein powder with GMO and food with lots of pesticides is just groundless.
In summary I am not trying to convince you to consume protein powder.
I don't sell protein powder, nor own any stock in companies that sell it.
You can eat anything you want to eat.
You can believe whatever you want to believe, regardless of facts or truth.
