Default best liquid to drink Protein Powder with ???

Hi,

What is the best liquid to drink protein powder with ?

Ive been using semi skimmed milk, is this any good, would full skimmed milk be better because of the lower fat content or is water best ?

What do other people use ?

cheers, Duncan

I use fully skimmed, like you say, just to lower my fat intake.

Water tastes crap

Depends on timing, Have it with water as soon as i wake and after training and with skimmed milk if i have one before bed or anytime when quick uptake isn't needed.

Having whey with milk slows digestion so isn't a good idea when just woken as your body has been without protein for 8 hours or so and also after training when your body needs it.

Other times it can be an advantage as it keeps the protein in your system longer, like food, upto 3 hours until your next meal.
