Does it matter how much water or milk you mix with your powder?

Does adding more water than what is written in the directions make your shake less effective...??

Is diluting the mixture to reduce the thickness going to make the intake less effective?

nope

Nope, just depends how you like to shake to taste....or how thick you like it...personally with my Isoflex..I do 5oz for 30g of protein...

Lol WAT?

Having it diluted wouldn't be bad for you if you are having the full serving.

But does anyone know if it's bad for you if theres hardly any water and you are just swallowing chunks of it?

No, the amount they suggest is just the amount that gives your shake the best flavor consistency.

exactly what i thought

Thanks for that guys...

So another question would be...


If my mass gainer has say 50g protein should I be splitting my shake up and drinking half of it then the rest of it a couple of hours later?
Your body only absorbs a certain amount of protein in a certain period of time right?
