I have been drinking protein drinks for a couple of weeks. The problem is that they taste terrible. I wanted to find something that came in a pouder form (that way I can get a lot for my money) that tasted okay. The stuff I am drinking now is soy protein. I am drinking to help build muscle.

I am against using creatine and steroids. I am only looking for protein drinks.

Next protein's designer whey (I like strawberry the best). 18g protein/scoop. Chocolate is not that good.
Optimum Nutrition's 100% Whey Gold (I only tried strawberry just taste a little canteloupe to me than strawberry but it's not bad (I still use it) -- for me designer whey taste better but protein is lower). I heard double rich chocolate is good. 24g protein/scoop.
Both are cheap. I buy the 5 lb tub. Drink right after your workout. Whey is fast absorbing.
Slow absorbing protein (night time protein/bedtime protein) you need something that contains casein or micellar. Probolic SR is one product, muscle milk is another (I think this one is high in fat good for weight gainers/bodybuilding).
You need 1 gm protein per 1 lb bodyweight.
If you are vegetarian soy's the only protein powder available for vegetarians I think.
Also eat lean protein foods: grilled chicken breat, eggwhites, tuna, etc

I drink whey protein in chocolate flavor, and it tastes pretty good. I never liked vanilla, strawberry and etc.

Yeah it truly is o.k. to characteristic sugar to it. in certainty, i could advise you to characteristic sugar into your shake and drink it after your work out. for the duration of your work out, your sugar on your physique gets depleted and by potential of having sugar after a piece out, it could stimulate insulin reaction which permits you to construct muscle speedier. while eating protein shakes with sugar at different cases, it truly is fantastic besides as long as you do no longer techniques the surplus energy and the possibility of the the physique changing the unused sugar into fat.
