Grab your shaker bottle and liven up your protein shake. If you have been taking protein shakes every day, there may be times that the mere sight or smell of protein powder has become repulsive to you.
Your way to your fitness goal of having leaner muscles and a more attractive body lies heavily on your diet. While avoiding fats and simple carbs, you also have to take in lots of high quality protein to help you build strong, toned muscles easier. Loading up on protein shakes as supplements is an effective and convenient way to fill this requirement. It would be a pity if you stop taking your protein supplements now that you have started on your fitness program. One solution is to upgrade the taste, as well as the nutritional content, of your shakes with some creative kitchen ideas.
Protein Blend
Vanilla, your mom's secret baking ingredient, can be added to your protein shake for a simple flavor enhancement.
If you want to add yummy-ness and, at the same time, increase calories, drizzle some honey, maple or chocolate syrup or caramel. Cinnamon, cocoa powder or peanut butter would do the same. Of course, everything should be in moderation.
You can try adding a tablespoon of flaxseed with the protein powder in your shaker bottle. Flaxseed will give your supplement omega-3 fatty acids and a crisp, nutty flavor.
About a cup of frozen peaches will add to your shake a good amount of vitamin C, which will help shield you from colds and flu.
Bananas are low in calorie and fat and a good source of protein. Try adding a piece the next time you make your shake.
Milk is a beneficial additive, especially if you want to increase your calcium. Anyway, you would need strong bones for your muscle tissue would hang on. Adding other dairies like yogurt and low-fat ice cream to your protein shakes would give you a delicious, filling and healthy snack. This is a smart choice if you are feeling hungry, haunted by a sweet tooth or simply craving for a good snack.
You should remind yourself, though, that if you will be putting some fresh or perishable ingredients in your shaker bottle, be sure that the container you are using is clean and airtight. If you will not be drinking it soon, store the shake in a refrigerator. If you will not be consuming the whole amount at once, pour the shake in a cup to drink to avoid bacterial contamination.
These are just some suggestions to add zing to your shake. Check your local grocery or health store for ingredients that you could use to make your supplement super.
