your body won't digest the powder because of the milk,to me sounds crap buit have you guys got any knowledge about this

Well since milk actually contains whey (I believe it's 20% whey), it's pretty obvious that the body can absorb whey in milk.

However, it will slow the absorbtion down quite drastically. If you are planning on taking whey post-workout (the best time for it), then you will be better off taking it in water with some fast acting sugars, as the nutrients will get to you much quicker.
