Should I use Whey Protein or not.....I don't do a lot of weight training but I have been running a lot. Just want to know if Whey is good to use if your not weight training?

can you get an adequate amount of protein in your daily diet from whole foods? if yes than whey is not needed, if no, then it may be something you want to look into0

I'm usually pretty low on Proteins during the day. My goal for the day is around 72 and and usually have about 34-35 left over.0

not sure of your weight but you should be consuming a lot more protein then 35-40g a day.
so look into
lean proteins
eggs
fish
protein powders
greek yogurt0 -
yeah if you arent over 40g I would say make a whey protien shake to be safe. Dont want to lose muscle if can help it.0

I agree with this. Additionally, with that much left over, it's probably worth looking at your diet, first, and seeing if you can make changes to work some more protein-based options in. For example, adding grilled chicken to your salads, or including a scrambled egg or two with breakfast (you can pick up nearly 20g from a 2-egg omelet with a little cheese, for example).0 -

And an adequate amount of taste-bud happiness.0
