That's because it IS an energy drink. Carbohydrates are absorbed more readily by the body if there's protein present too. Testing found 4:1 to be the best. It's more about getting carbs into the body than the protein. High5 make a nice one - Citrus. I've just finished one. I won't be using it again, as although it was fine used on a 12hr training ride it turned my stomach middle of the 24hr after using only GO.
