Protein drinks or supplements?

Question

I don't have time to eat healthy or even properly, what kind of drinks are out there that I can substitute for a meal. I just cannot take a vitamin pill, no pills (yuck), please someone help me... I want it to taste halfway decent too.

Answer 1

I don't know how this might taste to you but if i workout or really don't have time to cook i break raw eggs in a glass and drink them, they have a very slimy texture and taste like milk to me. just make sure their not cracked or anything before you break them. Honestly their not half bad.

Answer 2

if your main focus is protein, then there are protein bars, but they rarely taste good. i have never had one that tastes good.

protein shakes can taste good, most people prefer chocolate.

for a meal replacement, i would go with a scoop of chocolate whey powder with 2 cups of milk, and a vitamin pill such as one-a-day (there are specific one-a-day's like mens, womens, weightsmart, ect.) you would need the pill because you will not get any stuff you would get from a regular mean in that shake other then protein, calcium, fats, and full.

i find it funny someone calling pills gross asking about supplements, as they are often gross.

Answer 3

Try this.

Get yourself a good whey protein(Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey or Scivation Whey)

Mix 2 scoops protein with 2 tablespoons organic peanut butter, and a little water to get the desired thickness.

Add some frozen blueberries and you have great tasting meal that is very good for you.  Put it in a tupperware container and you can take it wherever you want.  

Answer 4

No one has time to eat right these days. So, people just give up and look to supplements. It's called a supplement. This is to add to your daily intake of real food, not in place of.... substitute a drink for a balanced meal three times a day that tastes great. Protein powder shake manufacturers make a living off people who don't have time to eat right. Make time! Yogurt, a grilled chicken salad, an apple... those are fast and available, even if you worked in a busy ER.
