Is banana a good fruit to mix into a Whey protein shake ? I do like the tast and it is like more thick, so it fill you up more. I use to put an egg into the mix also.

Thanks for your response.

Yeah it sure is...It's good to mix fruit and oatmeal and yogurts into your protein shakes. It adds vitamins and flavor to them sometimes bland protein powers.

V8 is supposed to give you a few servings of your vegetables and fruits, so in that sense its good. I'm also sure it contains plenty of carbohydrates which would provide you with some energy for the gym. But its not going to give you anything noticeable. Guys are the gym are drinking pure sugar energy drinks or muscle milk normally.

I always toss a banana into my protein shake. It doesn't taste the same without one in my personal opinion.
