Why do you have to wait at least 30-45 min before you get your meal? Why cant you eat right after you get your protein shake?

Any diet guru have an explanation?
you can eat a big meal after lifting....most people just take shakes cause whey is absorbed quicker than whole food sources of protein and most of the carbs in their shakes are dextrose which is #1 for rebuilding muscle glycogen.....also if you take a big shake and then eat you may be taking in a lot of calories at once that can tend to be stored as bodyfat..
yep, yep - protein and dextrose immediately after workout, then about 1 1/2 hours later FOOD !!! Like lamp said, you dont want all that food in you at once, you want it running like a well oiled machine, let your body get what it needs from the shake then it will be ready for the next meal instead of storing it
