When is the best time to drink my soy protein shake, are those bad for you? will it cause constipation?

Question

First of all, I'm not sure if I'm exercising today or not, but I still want to have my soy protein shake...when is the best time of day to drink it (I don't replace meals with it, i drink it between meals because im trying to GAIN weight)? Also, I was wondering if soy protein shakes are good for you...i've heard a lot of controversy over them. Do they cause constipation? Because that's also a problem for me. Anyone have ANY advice on ANY of this?

Answer 1

You are doing it right by eating it between meals. To gain weight, you must consume more than you burn, you just have to be careful and do it in a healthy way. As to your constipation, increase your fiber intake, up to 30 grams per day. Lettuce, other greens, broccoli, lentils and other beans are all good sources of fiber.

Answer 2

The shakes were consumed one and two hours after intense leg training and provided about 6 grams of protein, 34 grams of carbs, or both per shake for a 150 bodybuilder. The L-phenylalanine uptake in the protein and carb shake was measured as being three times higher than the carb shake and roughly twice as great as the amino shake! So, there you have it! As you know, the postworkout shake is the most critical meal for your increased anabolism. Make sure you're getting some carbs in your postworkout shake for best results!

You can take any time during the day but not before going to Bed like ordinary milk or milk drink.

Consumption of this will not cause constipation

Answer 4

When I bought my protein mix, I asked the dude, and obvious bodybuilder, he told me once in the morning once in the afternoon, and once at night. of course you must eat 3-5 meals a day and work out. I drink mine 2-3 times a day. after breakfast, after work, and before bed. Mixes with whey, egg white or milk protein work the best. Other products with meat or soy proteins do not work nearly as well. Also careful of your intake. 1000 calories or more with each drink is a good way to overload your system and spoil your appetite for your regular meals.
