5% Nutrition, specifically Rich Piana, always believed that whole foods were optimal for overall nutrition, meanwhile, supplements are supposed to supplement that. That’s why 5% Nutrition continues to support their Shake Time protein line. This time with a new flavor “Birthday Cake”.
For those who aren’t in the know, Shake Time is a protein powder that is derived from HydroBEEF, chicken protein and whole egg. A big question mark, especially with beef protein, is the amino acid profile. Is it just connective tissue, ie. collagen? If so, we know that collagen has benefits, but none directed towards muscle growth and repair.
We are a confident in HydroBEEF as it comes from one of the most well-respected companies in Prinova. HydroBEEF is a beef protein isolate for protein powders made from Grass-fed EU origin cows. As an allergen-free, whole food protein source, HydroBEEF is ideal as a stand-alone protein source, or as a primary protein driver in meal replacements.
If you need a whey alternative, we would rather see HydroBEEF used than a non-branded form. We also get the chicken protein and whole egg – which we like the use of whole egg a lot.
Overall the bioavailability will not be as high as a whey protein, but you will still get a powder that provides a complete protein source.
Each serving you get:
Fat: 2g (also has MCTs)
Carbs: 3g
Protein: 26g
If you have issues with lactose or whey in general, but not ready to go vegan, Shake Time should be a product you look at as it is one of the better “whole foods” shakes on the market today.
