Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 116 | mixing them would be the same as drinking whey in water, and then a glass of milk..... so if you have no problem drinking a glass of milk with your isolate... then have at it. IMO, it depends on when and why you are taking you WPI. Use this key: "If I am taking WPI should I drink milk with it?" For Breakfast: Yes, if you are not consuming an egg or meat protein near your shake. For a small snack: Yes, assuming lactose fits in your diet. Before Training: Yes, assuming lactose does not upset your stomach or cause a bloat... AND assuming u have not had another egg or animal protein source. After training: Maybe... probably no needed. If you are training for a long period of time, and had only WPI before training... then yes... do WPI after training. If your session was intense and lasted only 60-80 minutes, then WPI with milk AND ANOTHER CARB SOURCE (depending on genetics and goals) would be a great option for increasing anabolism. Before bed: **** WPI, you'd be wasting ur money. Just triple up on the milk and animal meat.
