Why is this?

I've heard people say that you should drink your protein shakes within 10 minutes after blending them...why is this?

Nick500 · 20-02-2006, 11:02 PM

Because the protein denatures - i don't know the science but I assume this means that it begins to 'digest' and doesn't act in the way it should when you finally drink it

razg?

I have read before that using a blender is bad. not sure why. most whey says 20 mins. maybe due to enzymes as Nick said above.

Nick500 · 20-02-2006, 11:32 PM

i use a blender for all of mine... whys it bad?

Thats shite. No different to shaking, or stirring. Some people got some funny ideas.

I think its somthing to do with the blades nick, so much different to a fork spinning around your shaker instead

i was always under the impression that you had to drink them within a certain time cos they started to coagulate-i`m sure things have changed since i last had one years ago

maybe this is a little extreme but...

the more a food is ground up, the quicker it is absorbed and passed through the body. I cant see how grinding up a shake would make a difference seeing as its a very fine powder anyway?
