Hi all,
Does anyone know anything about protein shakes for women, or have any recommendations for purchase in the UK? :)

    Protein is a nutrient, and not exclusive to men or women. Look into protein powders such as cellucor whey or musclepharm combat powder. Pre-made shakes are usually garbage.

    Also, these products will have no direct effect on your weight loss.

    There are no specific foods for weight loss. Protein shakes are merely a convenience for those who have troubles hitting their protein macro. They're nothing special. If you can get the protein you need from other sources like chicken, Greek yogurt, nuts, fish, etc then that is preferable, as those typically have more nutrients to them anyway. I will on the occasion have protein powder to fill in the gap on a busy day. Also, there are no men or women specific. If it claims it is, it's a marketing ploy.
