Whey proteins are awsopme especially that they are fast absorbing and have a high BV. My take on the whole thing is to use the fast acting type with a high glycemic carb source straight after training. When I want to take a protein shake as a meal replacement, I like the combination type products ie;Egg,milk& whey as they are a little slower to digest and theoretically will give you a nitogen retention curve that slopes downward slower.
Being on the subject of animal protein, I remember years back Phil introduced me to a product that contained chicken or beef protein...
I am not joking, this stuff was a syrup that was chocolate,vanilla or straberry flavored. I used to like the chocolate cause it tasted like hersheys chocolate syrup. Anyways, this stuff was in a glycerol base an was really easy to carry around with you and sip on it all day.
The statistics read that one table spoon contained 10 grans of protein !!! I am not kidding. Anyways I would always get incredibly veiny when using it, I do not know if it had any thing to do with the product or what but recently I was discussing this with my friend Phil and he said it did the same to him.
So, I recently pursuaded the manufacturer to sell me some even though he had discontinued selling it and i will report the effects.
