Again, this is for my kid. He wants to take one in between classes, what is the best for him to take? Also, which portein powder should he take after his workout? Is Muscle Meals any good?
I've found that Biotest Surge does amazing things for my recovery ability. Taking half a serving during your workout and half after is how I use it. However, the protein factory has a knockoff version that is substantially cheaper called the Recovery Formula. I really don't like protein bars, glorified candy bars. I would prefer a pre-made MRP to a protein bar if you don't have time to make/eat a regular meal. However, if you must go with a bar then avoid those with gelatin, they count it in their protein content. Usually the ones that taste the worst have the least gelatin.
The Isopure Meal Replacement Bars aren't too shabby. 32g of protein with each bar, with very little sugar. I haven't tried anything else, but I'm sure the rest of them out there are pretty equivalent.
i think i read that your son wants to gain weight if i believe correctly so meso-tech chocolate peanut butter protein bars are very great tasting, taste like a candy bar, have hight carbs and protein which is good for gaining mass, and are chepa, 24$ for box of 12 compared to other bars. can be bought at any gnc store
