olive oil in my protein shakes?

[mister69]

i threw in a table spoon of olive oil in my pre bed shake last night , is that a bad idea?


I have read that people like to put some olive oil in there daytime shakes to slow it down throughout the day?

any suggestions?

The combo of the oil and protein (I'm assuming we're talking whey here) is not bad at all. I have used two of those a day at times both offseason and contest prep. My choice of timing is a little different, but I know folks who advocate that for slower release throughout the night. I use natty PB before bed instead.

i would personally use flax seed oil.

Yup, falx is good too. Just don't over do it with the flax as that is a fat that oxidizes quickly when amounts are high

i assume the same goes for pb?

cuz i really cant get enough of tasty pb...i also use peanut butter (yeah...good value brand) at night

I use olive oil in all my daytime shakes(3). Too paranoid to take in any fat just before bed....

Hey Kosher, you mean in terms of oxidizing for the pb? I need to find the study again that compared the various sources of 3s, 6s, etc and their rate of conversion. I do remember that flax was much higher in rate than I would have expected, along with cod liver oil.

yeah id like to see that if you can find it

i have a lot of cla, olive oil, and pb...i'm fairly ignorant when it comes to which ess fatty acids are in what, and to what ratio
