Using high protein drinks to manage your weight is simple and convenient but it can be all too easy to go overboard.
For a successful protein-based diet use your shakes as a meal replacement only, not as a snack between meals. A protein shake for breakfast, lunch or both, combined with a healthy, balanced dinner is ideal.
And while it might be tempting to zhuzh up your shake with milk, berries or other additives, this only contributes to calorie count – simply mixing with water is the best option.
