Dude 3 shakes a day is too much.

Just make a TWO SCOOPS shake 30 mins post workout.

But I'm asking if I can sustain myself on pure whey protein shakes.

Your body needs essential fatty acids and micronutrients like vitamins and minerals to function properly. Not only will you feel like a bag of ass because you have no real energy macros (carbohydrates and then fats) you will suffer several different deficiency based disease that can kill you, or just fuck you up for life.

would it be more effective to powder up multi vitamins before consuming them?

This is also my question. Would 3 shakes a day plus a multivitamin be sufficient?

Not really. Multivitamins are a pharmacy meme as most of the micronutrients in them wont be properly absorbed, not to mention it is not all the ones you need.

The main issue here is that of 3 macro nutrients (protein, fat, carbs), youre only really getting one. Cutting down your carbs is okay because theyre just an energy source (although you'll feel like ass for a while = keto flu). But fats are necessary for proper hormone production. If you dont eat enough healthy fats, say goodbye to your testosterone, and a handful of other hormones

3 a day is only like 60 grams of protein man.

Health student here again. This is actually pretty accurate, you dont need whey protein.

Adressing another main issue here is that 3 protein shakes a day is nowehere near the amount of calories you need for even basic metabolic function, not to mention building or maintaining muscle mass. You will end up aushwitz mode with terrible shits/farts if all you consume is protein shakes

I take 3-4 scoops per day, its one of my primary source of protein since I'm vegetarian, no issues so far.

Should be eating as much soy protein as you can. Its a more complete protein (more of the essential aminos)

>>41515087

I eat soy based fake meat, I also eat a metric fuck load of rice and beans which together is complete so I'm fine overall

also want to avoid overly consuming phytoestrogens even if it might not be as dangerous as /fit/ makes it seem

Does it really matter when you drink a protein shake? I've been drinking them for brealfast and I go to the gym in the afternoon
