Hi. I`m an athlete, 24 years old. I would like to hear how to make easy protein shakes at home. I don`t want to spend a fortune on specialist supplements, really. There are many products, but nothing like home made shakes…

Hi. I make protein shakes at home very often. They are really tasty. I have a recipe for you. You need 50g dried skimmed milk powder, 500mls fresh milk, and milkshake powder. Mix milk powder with milk into a smooth paste. Put it into a blender and blend until frothy. You may add a banana and honey, fresh fruit, such as strawberries, or berry fruits. You may also add yoghurt, for a thicker shake. I like my shake with banana and some honey.

I suggest you spend some money on some based protein. You can choose soy, whey, or even hemp protein. I prefer the latter for its taste (nothing like marijuana, BTW).
If you're into food combining, then stop reading...cause protein shakes go against the doctrine. Food combining states "like food groups go together". In this case, we're combining fruit and protein, a big no-no. If you want to stick to the doctrine, whey protein goes really well with milk (especially chocolate milk!)...but tastes better when you add a frozen banana and/or peanut butter.
Basically, I like mixing fruits with real fruit juices and a protein powder. It's best to juice your own fruit (with organic fruit), but a preserved natural organic juice will do. Remember, the key to a good smoothie is to used frozen fruit. Then, the general guideline is to fill with fruit and then add juice until the juice is just under the fruit. Add protein powder and and other supplements (flax oil, greens +, acidophilus, etc.). Blend and enjoy!
Good fruit smoothie combinations:
blueberries, bananas, apple juice
peaches, bananas, strawberries, honey, apple juice
raspberries, blueberries, bananas, almonds, soy milk
strawberries, apples, bananas, scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt, apple juice |
