It could break the proteins down, but your stomach does that anyways so it should be fine. I cook with protein powder all the time.

You cook with protien powder? How does that work? What do you use it in?

I make kickass protein bars with:
Vanilla or bannana protein powder
bannanas
peanut butter
oats
bit of olive oil

I just mix off them up until they come out as a dough (I don't really measure I just add stuff until it is a good consistency) and then bake them at 350 for about 10 minutes.

Just whatever you do, don't bake them too long. They will turn into hockey pucks if overbaked.

Interesting. I might have to try that.
