  • Oh that was the worst for me, without a doubt, it ended up being so unbearable, that for me to drink unflavoured I'd add strawberry nesquik, which defeated the object of the protein and the exercise I'd just done as its basically just sugar!

    Protein flavourings, especially the artificially sweetened ones are revoltingly sweet.

    I use my protein unflavoured. Only moderately disgusting, trick is to mix it with the minimum amount of water you can. Then gulp it down quick.

    Interestingly, having a sugar hit with your post training protein is actually ideal. It will make your body release some insulin and help absorb both the protein and sugar quickly to where it can be useful (as in your muscles).

    More expensive protein powders will have various high GI carbs in them for this very purpose.
