Drinking time

[ccby222]

I picked up 5 pounds of Dymatize Gourmet Elite Whey, and noticed on the the back that it said to drink the shake immediately after making it. How important is this? Previously I was using an EAS Protein shake, and didn't see the same advice.

I've always drank a shake immediately after adding water. I can't imagine it's great after letting it sit for any length of time.

It'll be a product with a load of ingredients some of which will settle if it's left for a while.

Not really sure what they meant by that. Maybe the consistency gets thicker or something very soon if you let it sit without stirring.
But it probably isn't that big of deal if you don't consume it half a second after mixing it.

it probably will taste like ass if you let it sit on the counter all day

 

[Tazz]

probably not a good idea once it’s mixed..

I see no need for this. I mix my shake the night before, and put in fridge. Then drink it in the am after my workout.

If you keep it in the fridge it will be good for a reasonable amount of time
