Best paleo friendly protein shake out on the market right now?

[notsoserious]

Or protein powders. I'm not looking for a strict paleo diet but I do want to know which foods you like on this diet

If whey makes your throat close up and affects your breathing, you may be slightly allergic to dairy and or lactose intolerant. In terms of protein shakes in general, they are meant as a supplement, not a necessity. Natural occurring solid foods are better for you overall. Not that protein supplements are bad, you just don't want to have to much of them. Judging from your question, it sounds like your on a regimented diet. Something you may want to consider is that going above one gram of protein per pound a day is more than needed, especially for a girl. That is, if your trying to hit a certain amount such as that.

Strictly speaking, do you consider protein powders paleo?

I make a shake out of egg whites (pasteurized from a carton), greek yogurt (plain) and berries. Strikes me as neolithic rather then paleolithic, tbh, but pretty natural at least. About 1/2C egg white 1/3c greek yogurt and a handful of berries.

[notsoserious]

No I don't but powders are more convenient for on the go when I can't make/don't want to eat etc

That recipe sounds good though, do you use plain Greek as in vanilla plain or the real, tangy plain Greek yogurt?

[kheserthorpe]

Real plain. I put egg whites in the blender first, and run for a minute or two till they're frothed up, then add the yogurt/berries.

I do use whey protein powder (straight, no flavor/sweetereners) but not in shakes, I mix it with pure nut butter and greek yogurt (again), a touch of honey, cinnamon and vanilla, form into bars and dip in 75-80% cocoa dark chocolate.

Those sounds like great recipes I will definitely try them! Thanks!

link is the recipe I use for protein bars.

The best protein powders are either whey or casein (each functions differently). I like optimum cause it has a nice amount of isolate in it.

[notsoserious]

The only problem I have with whey based is that my throat feels like it closes up and I have a hard time breathing, how is the casein/how it functions?

I'm not looking for it to be drank every day etc but as a replacement meal etc

[antonlikesmlb]

Casein is milk derived and it digests slowly. Instead of increasing protein synthesis (it still does a little bit) it decreases muscle breakdown. It digests in 4-5 hours.

Whey protein. Gols standard 100% by Optimum Nutrition is the best and great for paleolithic diets
