| I actually often prefer the taste with water (weirdo I know!) so it's mostly water for me. I do have 100ml of milk in my 500ml breakfast shake, but that's mainly for the calcium*, or if I'm using unflavoured whey the small amount of sugar does help the taste.
*which reminds me I must find out how much calcium there is in whey since I suspect it may actually be rather a lot so adding milk for this could be unnecessary. | |

| Our Extreme whey is designed to be taken with water as the amino acids are in the same priority ratio as they are found in human muscle tissue and milk alters this and further slows digestion.
I would say to people if using this product for PWO it should be in water, if for the time release properties at bedtime or if during the day you struggle to find time to eat as regularly as you should I'd say use milk to enhance the time release nature of the product.
If using Extreme Performance Whey and you are eating or drinking a shake every couple of hours I would advise smaller servings in water allowing fast easy digestion but if you need to slow down the absorption then use milk.
It is worth bearing in mind 20% of people are intolerant to milk, this figure tends to be higher in blacks and asians than it is in white Europeans, most intolerant people don't even realise they have a problem with it as all it does to many is slow their metabolic rate and interfere with the digestion of other foods.

Before bed I have a casein based drink with milk so the fat will delay the absorbsion of the protein further and drip fead the muscle all night.
