I usually work out first thing, come home and have breakfast.. If i'm now factoring a protein shake after my work out/before my breakfast it turns into quite a big meal.. I was wondering.. I know your not supposed to heat up protein but what if i mixed my shake then used that mixture with my dry porridge? I have banana protein at the mo..

Let me know what you think or if you have done it.. it halfs my milk intake at breakfast..

    I've heard of people using it together before, although I haven't tried it myself.

    The woman at my nutrition shop and I talked about this. I really love hot cereal. She said for mixing purpose it is best to mix in your protein powder after your porridge/hot cereal is made. Oh your idea of using your liquid protein drink into your cereal is a wonderful idea. As for not heating protein? We heat protein all the time! Think about it. I think you should be fine.
    Be well,

    I mix mine with oatmeal and have no problem. Everything I've read says it's fine to do
