Answer#1: I recommend you use a milk based protein powder instead. In a good quality milk based protein powder you get the benefits of both whey and casein, and no doubt they are the 2 best proteins available. It is interesting because about 50% of my body-builders use milk based, and about 50% use pure whey protein. Of course, the most important question is can you drink milk?If you look at milk, then you will realize that 20 percent of milk protein is whey. Another consideration is to get protein from different sources.The benifits from milk is often overlooked. One litre of milk provides 440 calories, 48 grams of carbs, 32 grams of protein, and the great benifits of calcium, zinc, Vitamin D.Your choice, both will build muscle mass.
Answer#2: Try using a different brand if you're not using this one already.Designer Whey from Next Proteins has been winning awards for taste since 1993.It's also 47% better than regular whey because it's engineered and glutamine enriched.I buy mine from DPSNutrition.net and have been for over ten years now.You could try mixing the one that you're using in a blender with fruit and water with a little ice but I'd try the Designer if I were you.Whey is the best protein you can use because it has the highest biological value in humans.And don't cook with it because you'll only denature the protein rendering some of it useless.
Answer#3: Mix it with a fruit juice. Not only will it taste better but it helps your body absorb it after a workout.
Answer#4: You need to switch brands. Go to bodybuilding.com and order higher powered protein. The chocolate and vanilla are very good. I think it's like $20 for a 5 pound tub.
Answer#5: Blend it with favorite fruit. Yogurts are full of sugars (Even the low fat).
Answer#6: mae it into a shake or smoothie. mix it in with food, like tuna or something like that. protein powder is yucky!
Answer#7: Bake it into treats. Put it in pudding and yogurt. Pick a different flavor.
Answer#8: Some protein powders don't taste really good. I use Optimum Nutrition and it's great. Maybe try blending it in a blender with some berries. That's what I usually do with my vanilla protein powder.
Answer#9: I make a shake with frozen strawberries and some vanilla yogurt. It's great! (depending on the vanilla whey powder.) You can go to a yahoo group called proteinpervs and get lots of recipes. Also Vitalady.com sells a whole variety of flavors and you can buy a small sample to check a new kind out before you buy a big tub.
