can I use this as a protein shake?

Of course you can.. it is a slower burning protein as it burns over 6 to 8 hours. Its good for taking before bed. It you want a food shake after working out go for a whey protein

I use it in my morning shake when I run out of whey but casein is really for night time use. EDIT: I guess the answer is yes but what time do you want to drink that shake?
923547
You can! And it's delicious (: I recommend getting a shaker to mix it well.

Yep. Your body just doesn't process it as quickly as whey, so use it to just get your overall protein intake up. You don't need to drink it right after working out. I sometimes drink one scoop mixed with two cups almond milk before bed if I haven't had enough protein during the day. It mixes a much thicker shake than whey protein.

Casein is a slow digesting protein so it isnt recommended for after a workout. You can dribk this before going to bed especially if you workout on an empty stomach in the morning.

Yes. Casein is a protein powder. However it has a higher amino acid content and a slower digestion. It is perfect to take at bedtime especially if you were doing strength training.

I do not use protein powder. I use mine with turmeric and they are great. Have only had a handful not work when joining them with the little machine. I have ordered more. They are easy to fill and swallow.

I would never replace a meal with any protein shake unless your on the go and need some fuel for your body. I would use this mostly as an after workout drink or in between meal snack.

This is my vegetable protein powder of preference partly because it dissolves well. Having said that, I use a high speed blender to get it to mix so well. I am not sure whether if you use a hand shaker you would be pleased with the results.

I use almond or coconut milk and stir by hand. I know an athlete who uses one of those little protein shake mixers, you can usually find one for $15.00 or less.

I mix it with my protein shake... I would assume a smoothie would be fine. You have to mix it with something other than water (does not taste too good).

Just divide the dose you're going to use by what the container holds... there is no way to be able to tell since most people would make the shake at their own taste, using very different amounts. I would not recommend using it more than once a day, with about 3 days (a week) were you use it twice... main reason: nothing like real protein... second reason: anything that comes in a can has some type of preservative, most of the time is salt... usually a dose of this will give you 25% of your (not) needed daily sodium intake if I remember correctly...

If you're asking 'is it a good, quality protein product that can attribute to muscle growth', than yes. If you're asking 'by taking this supplement, will I get ripped,' than the answer would likely be no. This is a supplement; the rest of your diet will still play a bigger role in muscle gain, as will the amount of and type of work you're putting in to gain muscle.

I don't see why not but I would be mindful of the sugar in both and the taste. Honestly this powder is gross and the only reason I've ordered it 3 times is because it works. Best thing I've found to mix it with is blend it into a smoothie or with pineapple orange juice in a shaker bottle

Sure you could but why not buy fiber powder instead. There is a great Hemp protein and fiber mix Amazon sells by Nutiva.

Yes this product can be used with milk but I must also tell u if the shake is made using milk you would be increasing the calorie count by the number of calories contained in the milk used.

There is really no taste. I add it to a Green Grass mix and it does not effect the taste. A protein shake should be just as good. You will be glad you tried it.

It states on the benecol site that yes you can, but must check the nutritional info on the container. Try going to the Benecol site for much more information.

yes a woman can use it to for her protein and calorie needs, if she looking to gain weight. its has the amino acids to help perserve muscle gains, and carbs for glycogen replenishment.

I used it as more of a fill in for when I had no access to 'real food' it's a bit thin to be a meal replacement as it's not as thick as a shake. It may fill you up depending on the situation but I have to say I wouldn't recommend it for that purpose. It's more to give you the nutrients you may be missing from not eating properly all the time.I hope this helps.

It has no taste so it will mix fine with protein powder. I do it all the time.
