Can I boil protein powder?

If I want to make oatmeal or even a tea with unflavored protein powder would boiling the powder make it lose its protein content?

I’m not sure if boiling it will affect the protein powder somehow, but I usually add protein powder to my oatmeal and what I do it’s just add it once it’s on my plate and just mix it in, works great for me, hope it helps.

Yes, the protein content will be unaffected afaik. What little other nutrients in there might break down, but that's not a big deal.
