Here's my personal protein shake - tell me how is it??

[shumailkazimi]

250ml Milk

1 Banana

3 Raw egg whites

1 Raw egg Yolk

25 gms Peanuts/3 tbs Peanut butter

0.25 cup of fresh Blueberries

mix them all in a blender and here's your power drink

(note:i don't take protein supplements I believe in being natural hence this drink ...n its totally natural I have tried to add some carbs via fruits and good fats by peanuts)

Nothing wrong with it, but really not necessary if your overall diet is balanced and healthy. Quite a few carbs there and if your diet is oK otherwise, adding this protein shake will make people put on wieght if they're not on a heavy exercise program.

[shumailkazimi]

yes indeed it depends upon the level of training and body requirement ...i need to put on some serious muscle mass before going to my native place therefore I undergo heavy weight training and this drink just works perfect ...well our indian staple diet has lots of carbs and hence I thought of this low carbs high protein drink

[martyfellow]

Ok, you should be fine, but why do you need muscle mass to go anywhere?

[shumailkazimi]

wen I go to my native place there are my cousins and I'm the most jacked of all ...so its obvious I have to be in top shape recently I lost some weights but now I have to go there so I have to be jripped again so putting on some muscles becomes necessary

How is it? pretty bad. Ditch the raw eggs. That sh*t will put you in the hospital.

If you believe in being natural, then why wouldn't you put protein in it? Protein is HELLA natural. Your muscles are MADE of protein.

Drop the peanut butter.

Raw eggs can be hazardous, health wise.

Also, the protein in raw eggs is only 51% bioavailable, whereas that of a cooked egg is nearer 91% bioavailable.

So for both of those reasons, I'd avoid the raw eggs completely.

I've considered doing something similar. Real food > foodlike substances.
