Tasty.. I make the stuff in the morning and get my wife what I don't drink.. Whenever I don't give this to her she always complains that she doesn't have enough energy to get through the morning.. I've also noticed myself this to be true. This gives me enough energy to make it through the morning until lunchtime. I have a job that starts incredibly early in the morning and I don't have time to really make myself breakfast. I used to just skip breakfast but since I started taking this I feel a lot better.

I'm a snacker and I don't really like to eat three meals. But because I have insulin resistance (pre-diabetes), I was pretty much told firmly I had to have something every 2-2.5 hours to keep my blood sugar steady. I took it upon myself to find out what I could use that I did not have to cook and was not in the form of a nutritional bar ... I discovered Protein powders. In fact Next Nutitions's Designer Whey was recommended as the source for me. I tried several others before but once I got this one, it was truly the best I'd tried. For me it mixes well with water other people say they have to use a blender. The flavors are not hideous (I've tried some that made me hate life!). In fact, the strawberry and vanilla are quite pleasant. The chocolate is so-so. One scoop and I've got my protein and am done. 17 grams of protein at a go. That's excellent. Very low carb. and for my medical situation that is perfect because it doesn't make my blood sugar go wacky. If you've got Metabolic Syndrome or insulin resistance or even diabetes, and you don't dig those bars or want to stop to fix a mini-snack with protein and whatnot between meals, this is a terrific solution. And it's not expensive. Stir in water and you're done!

As far as whey proteins go, this is my choice Next Nutrition Designer Whey is my choice for lean muscle building. the product itself is a great whey supplement. Due to that fact that it comtains no aminos, it's low cal and low pro ... it is definitely in the basic supplement category for me. It is recommended that you take it like 5 times a day, it seems a bit over kill for me but so far it really is preventing soreness at night and helping to fuel my muscles during my workout. For my purposes of lean muscle and to stay toned and healthy I will stick with Next Nutrition's Designer Whey. As far as the taste factor, the chocolate is a definite favorite of mine. You most likely will need a blender to mix the Designer Whey because a spoon is just not going to do it or a shaker for that matter. I thnk it is a very good value for the money, if you follow their instructions you can have a tub for about 20 days but at 5 times a day like I said, is not a bad value at all.
