  • But if you prefer to have protein shakes, the right timing is when it fits into your lifestyle, says Ortega-Santos. That means that it's best to take a protein shake when you have time and when it fits into your nutritional needs. (Also, if you just feel like enjoying one, it's totally OK to lean into that urge.)

The article from Outside Online discusses the optimal times for consuming protein shakes to maximize their benefits for muscle growth, recovery, and overall health. It highlights that the timing of protein intake can significantly influence its effectiveness. Post-workout, within 30 minutes to an hour, is considered the best time for a protein shake due to the body's heightened state of muscle protein synthesis, aiding in quicker recovery and muscle repair. However, the article also notes that protein intake before workouts can help prevent muscle breakdown. Additionally, it suggests that spreading protein intake evenly throughout the day, including before bed, can be beneficial for muscle maintenance and growth, especially for those not engaging in immediate post-workout consumption. The piece also touches on the importance of total daily protein intake over strict timing, suggesting that while timing can optimize results, consistency in meeting daily protein needs is crucial.
