Expired Protein Powder!?

[Brauap]

Hello! Recently I have been going to the gym and lifting with my buddy.. he recomended I get some protein powder to help with the sore musles the day after...

I found some my father had bought a few years back and the experation date was 2006.. I don't plan on using it (unless I find out it is still good) but I was just wondering.. what in the powder goes/could go bad?

its kind of iffy i had some that went out of date about a year ago and i used it a little. the taste was deff off so it had to have gone bad in some way. i only used it a few times. if you want some go to bodybuilding.com or supplamentkingdom.com and order some

2006 is to old, it prob won't mix well and just clump plus you lost of the nutrition out of it also.


Check out dpsnutrtion.com, they got good prices and quick shipping

its PROTEIN powder of course it does. if you wanna build muscle you should try to take in 1.5 grams of protein a day for every pound that you weigh

And supplements arent the only way to reach your protein intake.. lots of fish, chikcken, and lean beef will add more mass! SOmetimes powder is better, but remember its just to help boost your daily intake because its fast, and convenient! Real protein and good carbs will help you with growth and recovery more than any powder ever would!

Also, Im not a dietician but I would research taking your protein powder with a fast carb like sugar! It supposed to help absorb it, but again I've only read this, I havent seen any reserach to back this claim up!
