Reply With QuoteI take it with milk. I like the taste better than mixing it with water. Also, milk has protein in it too, but I'm also a newbie, so I'm not too sure if its the most beneficial way to drink it.

Optimum nutrition w/ water or milk...?
hey people,
Im new to these forums and hope you guys can give me some advice!
I just purchased a whey protein...
I choose optimum since must of you guys spoke so highly of it!
Now my question was i have a pre-work out shake and another before i go to bed.
When i make the shake i have both with reduced fat milk and both contain about 400-450 grams of milk, i was wondering if this is too much milk? if there is such a thing as too much?
in total just under 1 litre a day of milk!
Also i am wondering if i should invest in a multi vietamin ?
im still just learning about supplements so any advice would be much appreciated!
cheersi wanna see two more.....no matter what!

Good choice in protein brand, I like Optimum as well. Try adding a post-workout shake too. Instead of milk, I add heavy whipping cream instead.
YES, invest in a multi-vitamin. I like Nature's Plus, Source of Life w/o Iron.MAX. Q

water...milk fats can hamper the absorption of whey proteins. with whey proteins (any whey fraction) water is the best, then ff then skim milk.
milk fats are neccessary for the proper digestion of milk proteins. if you are using milk for a protein source drink whole milk...I train differently than most, my beef is with gravity the weights on the bar are just the medium...Thanks to Wall Street your slice of the American Pie has been reduced to a crumb.

Also is 800g of milk a day to much?

with 1% and 2% milks the non-fat dried milk is added back to the milk. the oxidized cholesterol in the non-fat dried milk has been linked to heart disease.
most of the good fats (linoleic acid) are removed from the lower fat varieties of milk along with most of the cholesterol (which is good). if you don't have a cholesterol problem drink whole milkI train differently than most, my beef is with gravity the weights on the bar are just the medium...Thanks to Wall Street your slice of the American Pie has been reduced to a crumb.
