How did people develop the idea that Protein shakes were bad for your kidneys? After all they are just protein, some mixed with carbohydrates, etc. Check the back of the tub to see the amino acid profile as well to see what you are getting.

The idea comes from the whole crazy high protein, very low carb diets. If your body doesnt have carbs and fat to burn it will start to burn protein as energy, which is bad for your kidneys.

Protein shakes are a great way to add protein and other nutrients to your diet.

I include any or all of these (depending when im drinking it) in mine:
Protein powder (whey and or cassein)
water
Milk
Yogurt
Eggs
Berries (frozen or fresh)
juice
fiber supplements
peanut butter
bananas

Yes protein shakes are the good source of proteins supplements to our body. The nutrition supplements are essential for the proper functioning of the body.As in today's busy schedule a person generally skips his meals and becomes weak day by day.But there is one online nutrition supplement provider http://www.no2max.com/ which gives the nutrition supplements to compensate with your skipped meal.

Would this be SPAM

Just eating protein after exercise is pretty much as good. In theory a shake would be better as digestion would be quicker...but the difference is minimal. Personally i haven't had a protein shake for about 6 months. There's been no holt in progress...just made sure i consume enough protein in my diet.

I used to rely on them a lot when i thought i needed 300 g of protein per day

Speed of absorption (if its whey mixed with water), convenience (not having to cook a meal), and the fact that they taste good and act as a sort of treat are the main reasons i like them.

I know this is psychological but i always just feel like I've had a drink - i can never convince myself I've had a meal! It's as if psychologically solid things are just way more filling or something? Ok weird I know!
