About Protein supplement, milk based, Muscle Milk, powder

Muscle Milk is a milk-based protein supplement sold as a dry powder that you blend with water or milk into a shake. The protein comes from a blend of milk proteins (whey and casein), and the mix is fortified with a range of vitamins and minerals.

The per-100-gram figures describe the concentrated dry powder, not a glass of finished drink, so they read very high: about 411 calories, 46 grams of protein, 17 grams of fat and 18.5 grams of carbohydrate, with 500 milligrams of calcium, 8.6 milligrams of iron and added vitamins A and C per 100 grams. In practice you use a scoop or two — a typical two-scoop serving of about 70 grams makes a shake with roughly 287 calories and 32 grams of protein, before the water or milk you add.

A protein shake like this is a convenient way to reach a protein target around training or a busy day, but it is a supplement, not a meal — whole foods such as milk, yogurt, eggs, beans and meat supply the same protein with more overall nutrition. Most people who eat a balanced diet already get enough protein without it; for those who want the extra, it is a simple, calorie-controlled option when used in place of, not on top of, a balanced intake.
