one protein recommendation!!

[bunnymt]

Hello ladies:

Has anyone tried the Met-rx protein called "Protein plus": Soy formula, strawberry and cream flavor? It is really tasty. It actually tastes like strawberries and cream oatmeal.

Btw: do any of you have any good results/experiences with the time-released protein powders?

Just curious.

The belief that ther's some type of supplement that releases a big chunk of protein into the body after several hours of ingestion?

I don't buy it.

If you know of how protein is synthesized in the body, you would save your money and buy a good brand of protein powder and take the protein once every 4-6 hours. Or eat a good steak or some chicken (or other source of protein) at "such-and-such" hour and four hours later have some more protein. THIS will maintain protein synthesis.

This new protein that I bought is not time-released. I was simply elaborating on how great I thought the protein tasted and mixed!

I am well aware as to how protein is synthesized in the body; My question was regarding whether other women have had good results, the same results, etc. with the time-released protein versus the non-time-released, as I have not sampled the time-released as of yet.
Thanks for your help...

So does anyone else have any input?

im not sure about proteins marketed as "time released" just because ive been out of the supp game for a while. but a while ago, under recommendation, i made a blend of casein, isolate and concentrate from proteinfactory.com that was quite filling over the course of a few hours. the theory was the different absorption rates spread out the protein uptake. i felt satisfied longer than with just a simple whey concentrate or isolate. as for whether or not i made gains because of it, i wasnt paying attention. i took it post workout and also prior to bed.

Sorry, bunny: I realized after I post that reply, that I may come off as being rude. Wasn't.

But honestly, I have been using two brands of protein powder that have become my staple (as far as protein powders go). And I'm not a big fan of soy as a protein source.

Hey Slinky, I didn't even think about it! You weren't rude, just straightforward, and that's perfectly fine with me! That's how I am.

I am just curious about other peoples' experiences.

I am currently taking this soy protein (protein plus by Metrx), as I have stated in my first post. I feel pretty good...it is better tasting that Designer and my gym sessions have been productive.

My BF is taking the time-released protein by Metrx (not soy), and he seems to like it a lot!

Thanks for the replies..

Yes bunny I've tried it. It is one of the better tastin RTD's. I've tried most of them and that is one of m favorites. I usually use Optimum Whey but when I'm lazy I usually try to get the Protein Plus. I like EAS low carb vanilla too but I haven't been able to get that in awhile.

Check out Spatts' post "All the Whey." I sent for a asmple and got it within 2 days. I really like it and plan on putting in an order. There's no awful sweet after taste and it mixes up very well,not lunpy. Try it you might like it.
