My friend recommended I have the p90x recovery drink after doing insanity

It has 26g of sugar in it and that worries me.. is there anything else I can drink? I know you can eat afterwards but I don't really feel like eating a solid food...

suggestions?

Thanks!

    I also use the results and recovery drink post workout. I only use one scoop with one scoop of whey protein, Musclepharm Combat Orange creamsicle. Orange smoothie! One scoop is much easier to fit into my macro's for the day. Then a half hour to hour later I eat my meal. The dextrose (sugar) is quickly utilized by the body since you just depleted your glycogen stores during the intense workout.

    I have a cup of milk and a banana after the strength training vids of the P90X series.

    It's garbage and you don't even need anything if you don't want. Solid food is perfectly fine.

    Essentially all Beachbody supplements are overpriced and average at best with many falling into the garbage category
