A young man has said to you that he is eating much more protein in his diet than the recommendation but he feels he needs the extra amount just in case he wants to build more muscle mass in the near future. How would you respond to him? 1. it should be fine because the cells will store the extra amino acids for future use if he has excess calories in his diet,2. he may gain fat weight from converted protein 3. the extra protein will be used for fuel instead of the carbohydrate 4. the body won't digest the extra protein and it will be eliminated in feces 5. if he has excess calories in his diet, he may gain fat weight from converted protein

Answer:

in my opinion i would go with the first answer

Step-by-step explanation:

because as it says that he is young which means he is still growing and he needs a little bit more nutrients

however,

i would also go with second one too (only if he eats like double the recommended amount)
