Mix with Milk or water?

Hellscream Posts: 272 Joined: 2004/02/25	2004/03/05, 07:15 PM I got weider supplement, says to mix with milk. Prob is with a small fridge and 6 ppl drinking tea, coffee and milk/cereal breakfast, it dont last a second :) So was wondering if it is possible to replace the milk with water or will that just not simply work :(

That's the issue (as well as calories) but it can work both ways. For example, if you use Carb Solutions protein powder, which is plain old yuck, milk makes it so thick that you could use the resulting shake to make a flower pot. (I think some of the MetRx powders are like this, too). But normally, thickness isn't so much a problem so water will do. But taste is sacrificed using water--and so are calories, if that's your goal--so try not to get used to any one powder mixed with milk if you're going to switch to water. It would be like doing the same with your favorite cereal. :( -------------- --There are no versions of the truth.-- Jeff Goldblum, Jurassic Park II

Also with the taste of it mixed with milk, I dont think it could get much wosrse being mixed with water, or could it? :) -------------- Willing is not enough, we must do.

Like you said, milk may not be available at your house at a given time, so maybe you should find one that is intended to go with water.
