Milk in my protein drink?

[tominator]

Some people say do it, others say mix it with water or juice. I've talked with several people who are big proponents of using powdered milk. What do you guys think?

A lot of sugar in milk
Milk bloats may cause bloat
Lactose can give some people big stomach issues

I use water. Once and a while I will use 1 part milk: 3 parts water

I like milk

I use Milk, It's very suitable for me, I think it depends

its fine unless for some reason you dont need the carbs at that time, or if it bothers your stomach.

depends on your goals but imo you should never put milk in you PWO shake as it slows absorption.

milk is fine in PWO shake.

heavy whipping cream and whole eggs with my whey PWO

are you in a famished/starved state when you being your workout? if youre eating within a few hours of your workout, you will still have aminos in your system - super fast absorbing protein PWO means fuckall.

Some research even shows that a mix of whey/casein is superior PWO. guess what readily available liquid happens to be composed of whey and casein proteins....

i was going to mention this in my post. but instead went with the milk is fine PWO...LOL

to let it be known milk is roughly 80/20 casien/whey
also whole milk has been shown too be increase insulin levels.

Very interesting advice so far. Thanks guys. Does anyone have any feedback about powdered milk?

 

[adidamps2]

same as regular milk as far as i know, minus the water of course.

Im not gonna get into an argument on this. Theres studies to support your opinion and studies to support mine, although i was careful to state that it was my "opinion". Notice the origial post in this thread.

"Some people say do it, others say mix it with water or juice. I've talked with several people who are big proponents of using powdered milk. What do you guys think?"

That tells you right there there is no answer on this subject. to debate it is pointless.
