You can go ahead and count on any interesting study the Guardian references it's not going to cite a source for. It's a real shame considering I usually enjoy their articles for their often unique coverage and just amount of depth to make me want to read more, but no links are to be found.
Also, I find almonds and pistacchios somewhat filling, as well as oatmeal bars. If I need more protein during the day, I bring a casein shake to work with half skim milk/water. They'll hold off hunger for a while as well, much better than whey.
- growlist 8y agoCasein is more expensive than whey though, right? I love nuts and oats. My usual breakfast is porridge with banana and pecans - takes about 6 minutes to make with microwaving the porridge, and gets some good stuff in me first thing. Love nuts to snack on as well, but my sweet cravings just never go away no matter what I eat. It's annoying. At least polyols seem a reasonable substitute. Cue the 'polyols give you cancer' articles in 3,2..
- TheBeardKing 8y agoI usually only have scoop of casein the day after a resistance workout. One 5 lb tub lasts me 6 months, I think it's around $50 on amazon S&S, Gold brand. Chocolate flavor's not bad, might be enough to satisfy a sweet tooth, and much better than cottage cheese which is kinda gross.
- growlist 8y agoThat's good value. I don't mind cottage cheese though. Used to eat loads when I worked out all the time! Depends very much on the brand I found - some have a higher fat content and are thus more palatable. It was one of the cheapest sources of protein I was able to find.
