what do you mix your protein with?

[sawastea]

It is called maltodextrin

Anyway, there are MANY options here...

1) Maltodextrin/Dextrose (great for post workout glycogen restoration)
2) oats (lower GI)
3) Healthy fats like almond/peanut butter, flax oil (Barlean's and Udo's), coconut oil (rich in MCT's), etc
4) Fruits (strawberries/blueberries)

There are MANY other options. Work according to YOUR needs and caloric intake and enjoy looking good

How long does Flax oil stay good...I have had a bottle for a really long time, like over a year. I couldn't stomach the taste anymore, but I am thinking of starting it up again in my shakes to mask the taste of it some. I used to just take a shot of it out of a tablespoon...UGH!! It has been refrigerated since the day it was first opened...

Thanks,
PinkPanther

Over a year??
Get a new one

An opened flaxseed oil bottle is good for a week, 10 days tops - the polylipids are rather unstable, refregirating only attenuates the break down for so long, when the oil is exposed to environment try to consume it as fast as you can

Thanks guys! I figured that I should just get a new one, but wanted to double check.

Although a week may be "technically accurate", I use a bottle for 2-3 weeks easily.....no ill effects.........all good.....some people dont keep meat in the fridge for more than 2 days....I go a week............it's all relative...lol....
