Mixing proteins

[anthrax]

What about mixing proteins powders (whey + casein + soy, or whatever you want) in order to benefit the most from each proteins sources)

* quick protein digestibility w/ whey
* BCAAs and L-glutamine from soy
* better amino acids profiles (compensating amino acids deficiencies)

 

[FatChops]

I don't care what type of protein it is, except that I use nothing but whey.

 

[Senior Woonaki]

I would back off soy...
mixing proteins would be good because each protein has pro's and cons. The amino profiles differ depending on the protein...

I have a egg/casein mixture during the day and use allthewhey isolate post workout...

you can take whey all day long but you would probably have to have your meals closer together because the whey gets digested so quickly...

Hey Anthrax,
I've been taking an Whey Isolate/Concentrate mix post workout.
In the evening before bed I use a Casein/Egg/Whey mix.
Since doing this I have made wicked gains.
I think its a great idea.

[LITTLE PETER]

which has the lowest glycemic index of whey,soy,casien??? third time i have posted this and still no freakin answers

 

[Senior Woonaki]

soy beans have a GI of 18.

i am not sure about the others

 

[LITTLE PETER]

is that the same with powder though? i am sure the soy bean's GI is lower for the fiber and what not.

 

[jerkbox]

it took me about 30 seconds to find this information using this thing called a "SEARCH ENGINE"


Protein foods like poultry, low fat fish and protein powders; and fat foods like oils, nuts and seeds, have glycemic indexes close to zero.

 

[LITTLE PETER]

hey jerkoffbox, i must not be bright enough to put in the correct words to do the correct serach because i did search this a number of times. however thank you

 

[Senior Woonaki]

also when you eat too much protein in one meal it gets converted to Glucose (which has a gi rating of 100)

the "too much" point would differ from person to person.. Is there any rule of thumb to figure out how much you can consume without this happening????

exactly !

different mixes for different situations

 

[Dante666]

Mixing will give you better progess in my opinion, just be careful with the Soy. I personally avoid the stuff.

 

[Quino]

I mix soy and whey and I have read pros and cons for the use of Soy protein. I think I am getting good results on this mix. However, just to be on the safe side. I will replace it with casein once I run out of it.

 

[LITTLE PETER]

soy-similar BCAA's to whey, and more glutamine, cheaper , and possible test booster and estrogen inhibitor. also low GI
caienate-promotes higher cholesterol and i think triglycerides in blood.
whey-to high glycemic except post workout
(all from protein Bible)

 

[variation]

why

why back off soy? estrogen-like plant hormones is not human estrogen...

put forth a study done on humans that shows soy increases estrogen production, else keep the anti-soy stuff to yourselves.
