Can you mix your whey protein with coffee?

[randyrandal]

At work I don't want anybody to know that I use protein powder so I put the whey in my mug, without letting anyone see it, and then I go to the coffee machine and fill it with coffee. It tastes pretty awesome. Is it okay to mix whey with coffee or could this somehow decrease the effectiveness of it? What if the coffee is too hot? Could the whey be denaturized?

[Downsey]

ughhh...sounds disgusting

anyway if i remember correctly the heat may denaturize the proteins but that really dosnt matter, the amino acids are still there and thats what your body needs

[randyrandal]

No, it tastes awesome!
I am currently using ON cookies 'n cream and mixed it with milk coffee and it tasted great. The coffee got really sweet.

You may diminish the biologically active / immunological properties of the protein by doing so. But in the end, you probably won't notice a difference ...

[buckeyemike75]

I guess you could use that instead of a non-dairy creamer.

I usualy mix my vanilla whey with instant coffee powder and it taste like Ice coffee drink. I'd recommend it if you're a coffee lover like me.

Doesn't your protein lump up when you mix it with hot liquid?

That's what always happened to me the few times I've tried it (and with different brands).

You have to stir but the ON whey is very soluble and it's not a problem if you stir enough.

Yep.. personally I wouldn't do it but it won't interfere with gains.

I recently tried a new protein mix that's actually designed to be mixed into hot coffee. It's called Javanu. You should try it. It tastes great.

[iSquat_ATG]

Why don't you want people at work to know your taking whey protein... do you work with a bunch of those "everything is steroids" type of people?

Don't use hot hot coffee, but I think you are safe thow because the temperature would have to be hot enough to burn your mouth to denaturize whey...


Morning drink for me: cup of warm coffee mix in cookies and cream iso whey(mixes the best this whey), cup of water and ice...off to work

I think you have other issues though besides the whey, if you don't want people to know what you are doing, personally I just tell people I am addicted to milk shakes

Man that sounds extremely good, may have to give this a try on my Carb up day

[SmokeNB]

I've done it with ON Double Chocolate and it tasted pretty good.

i logged back on to this forum to see if anyone actually tried Javanu, and based on your blatant trolling, I definitely will not buy it now.

[Impetusin]

Is he trolling in other posts? I would like to try that Javanu stuff.

I use chocolate flavor Muscle Meds Carnivore protein in my coffee every morning. When I'm doing a keto diet I add slice of grass-fed unsalted butter in it, which is pretty delicious as well.

You put animal ligaments in your coffee? Ee brah.

[SupImJames]

Why wouldn't you want anyone knowin you take protein powder? Not like its roids or anything lmao

BUMP for 2014



People who ask these retarded questions don't realise they are denaturing protein daily.

When you boil or cook eggs the egg white hardens.....

Yet is the egg less effective ? No.

Case closed.

Vanilla Caramel & Coffee, sounds awesome!

I pour about 3/4 cup of coffee into my mug and let it sit for a minute before I mix it with protein. This seems to help quite a bit with the lumping. Currently Phase 8 protein with coffee, works great!

Proteins, as with anything your body processes (Carbohydrates, fats, ect.), are processed differently based on their molecular structure. If you denature a certain type of protein there is a good chance you aren't absorbing as much, or at least you are changing the biochemical pathway that the protein goes down to be absorbed. No question is a stupid question to the person asking. Keep asking questions my friends!

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whey_protein , so not over 72 C , eh... thx for the answer, i almost believe thing differently..

[thedarce]

epic bump!

that being said, its perfectly fine.

I pour about 20oz of coffee + 1-2 scoops of Protean into it. you dont have to add cream or sugar.
iForce Brown Sugah maple oatmeal cookie or Vanilla work fantastic. also would suggest dark chocolate flavors ie iForce choc truffle or SAN Chocolate Rocky Road. they add a nuttier flavor to it.

[bdillingham5]

Will it denature the protein, maybe. The real question is does it matter and the answer is no.

Your body will still absorb the exact same amino acids.

[dknatural74]

I mix chocolate VPX zero carb with green tea b4 morning fasted cardio. Works out nicely and reminds me of hot chocolate!!!

[Intervals]

you can't it will explode.. specially if you put n.o xplod in it
