protein shakes/whey protein help

lk14040

I have never had a protein shake before and I wanted to up my protein, so I thought that it could help. I dont really know where to start. I have read some posts and some said they have good recipes for a good protein shake. What is the carb/calorie/fat/sugar/protein content on most protein powders. Is there a difference with whey protein, because thats what I want to try.

Protein shake nutrient profiles are as varied as any other supplement, so there isn't really an average.
I usually just mix mine with cold milk because it's fast. Whey protein is digested very quickly and causes a moderate insulin reaction..it's great for post-workout but it won't keep you feeling full very long. Egg white and casein are better in some respects, but in the end it's all protein.

i use 100% gold standard whey protein powder (vanilla ice cream) it has 120 calories, 24 grams of protein, 3 carbs, 1 sugar. i mix one scoop with 8 oz fat free milk and 1 frozen banana....soooo good!!! i also mix it with frozen strawberries too!! tastes just like a milk shake!!!
