Protein Powders

[madmedic]

a good BO food would be something like nuts and chocolate.. what the army would call a nutty bag.. but massive energy for weight. i always found marzipan a great thing lasts for ages easy to eat and does not requite more water like some of the protein powders do..

Protein supplements, although relatively low in calories, are useful to help repair muscle or speed healing where other sources such as meat are unobtainable or would require calorific expenditure to obtain in the first place!

I used to mix with oats and microwave to make a cake, just mixed up the daily chore of getting my protein fix :/

I didn't even think of that! I've had protein pancakes and cookies but I've never had protein cake?! I'll be trying that Do you add any fat? Coconut oil or anything?

I use supps, and I've actually got a zip lock bag of a supplement called "Serious Mass" in my BoB. Basically it's a weight gainer and when push comes to shove, as a plan B energy source, i rate them.

A 100g serving (with water) gives:

378kcal
16g protien
75g Carbs
Various Vit/Minerals.

Also the best before date is March 2015. it doesn't give a use by date, so I'm guessing it's good until 2016.

But to the OP's question. Yes definitely worth popping in a BoB.

in an emergency situation they are good for adding bulk to stews/soups , whack them in with what ever you can find (unflavoured are best as choc or vanilla stew dont sound that appealing lol)

I used these years ago when I went to the gym. I see them as an ideal supplement alongside other items for food storage. Lightweight long lasting full of protein. Ideal alongside other items.
