  • Q I'm looking to build muscle. Are proprietary protein drinks and powders useful?
  • A Successful muscle building requires the correct combination of the right exercise intensity, the right nutrition and sufficient rest to achieve results - and nutrition is certainly a key factor. Specialist drink mixes are often formulated to contain a suitable blend of protein for repair and growth, together with carbohydrate for fuel - so, they can be very effective. However, these products usually come at a price and can leave a serious hole in your wallet! By sticking to whole-food choices such as lean meat and fish rather than synthesised products, you will be consuming a more balanced diet containing essential trace elements such as vitamins, minerals and other nutrients - and you'll also save yourself a lot of money.
