cheapest pound for pound protein?

[oROSSo]

Basic arithmatic error! Hint: you still haven't said how much protein is in the chicken.

I was just replying to the suggestion that it was always a case of 'the higher the better'.

ah yes, sorry. About 26g of protein per 100g which makes it just over 6% of BCAA, still be a struggle to reach anywhere near the 40% you suggested.

Fixed.

Depends on whether you think the differences are worth the extra money you pay.

i guess that depends on whether or not you class

• 1⁄3 less cholesterol
• 1⁄4 less saturated fat
• 2⁄3 more vitamin A
• 2 times more omega-3 fatty acids
• 3 times more vitamin E
• 7 times more beta carotene

as miniscule.

MyProtein is cheap and recommended by tons of people. I'm on the Toffee one at the minute. Lovely stuff

do you feel full after a shake?

do you feel full after a shake?

No, but I mix it with water. Suits me fine because I use shakes to get protein on board not as a meal (if that makes sense)

A third of what ?? a quarter of what, what is the measurement scale (also linky)

You sound like the Daily Mail - bacon increases your chances of cancer by 50% - TRUE



.... from 2 in 10,000 chance to a 3 in 10,000 chance - a 50% increase.

:roll:

I can post up the figures when I'm back at a computer on Monday but surely you can deal with the fact that I'm talking about a third and a quarter of the average battery hen compared to a free range. Not that difficult is it?

Yeah but if you're talking a third of a milligram then it's neither here nor there is it.

It'll still be cheaper than getting the same amount of protein from meat. Look at the calorific contents too, if you make it up with milk it'll get you closer to a meal's worth.

your missing the point. protein shakes are to help reach your protein macros, and are not a meal replacement.

if your not hitting your protein macros your weight lifting is a waste of time.


edit: u can add alsorts of shite to ya shake to make it fill u up, oats, peanut butter, ice cream, yoghurt, etc etc. but with just water it doesnt 'fill u up'
