stoopid question
Registered
Hello everyone. I'm a noob around these parts, but I have a few questions I'd like to ask. Hopefully someone can shed some light for me!
First of all, I am looking to gain weight. I am 6'1 and 130lbs. I know, skinny.
I am partially lactose intolerant, meaning I can't drink straight white milk (or shakes). Soy is also NOT an option.
After searching around, I have found some unflavored whey protein... and it's truly unflavored... however, I am having trouble finding suitable ideas for mixing it since I can't have a milk-based shake. Any ideas besides fruit smoothies?
I have also looked into IDS New Whey 42g protein 'tubes'. They taste fine, but I have heard that the collagen protein is not really suitable for the gains I need. Is this true?
I do really like the IDS tubes, however, they are WAY too expensive to use every day. Has anyone successfully come up with a similar alternative?
So here are my questions:
1. What to mix unflavored protein with? (besides shakes with milk, and smoothies)
2. Can you COOK with unflavored protein powder? Will it lose effect after heating?
3. Have you successfully created something similar to IDS' New Whey 42g tubes?
I'm sorry to be such a noob... but I thought I might ask you all for help. I fully expect smartass responses, but I would truly appreciate some help if you have some real input!
THANKS!
