That is why the only time I have mine is immediately post workout. 99% of the time I will have 16oz of pasturized egg whites in place of a protein shake. 250 cals, 50 grams protein, 0 Fat, 0 carbs and a WHOLE food source. Powders do not provide micronutrients that whole foods do and thats something a lot of people miss.
Dieting is not all about cals in and cals out. Nutrition timing and food quality all play a role in the gains you make. Would you put non name regular gas in a Ferrari? I wouldnt, so why would you do the same thing to your body?
