what is the best protein shake?

Currently I am using Body Fortress Whey Protein shake it has 30g of protein which I like, but it has 170 calories per serving and thats before adding skim milk. Are there alternative protein drinks with less calories but near the same protein? I have to keep my daily calorie intake of 600 and sometimes its hard to do. Thanks.

i think golds whey protein isolate is the best. i was recommended that by my doctor.

Premier Protein is great. It's ready to drink. It's sold at Sams and Costco. It has 30 grams of protein and is 160 calories. Since it's ready to drink that's the total calories unlike in a powder where you also have to add the calories of what you mix with it.

About Time has 24 grams of protein (or 25 depending on the flavor) for 100 calories, so you could get your 30 grams of protein by using 125 calories worth of protein powder.

Disclaimer - I don't think this is the best tasting protein out there. Definitely buy a sample or trial pack before committing to a tub. Lots of people love it, but lots of people hate it, too.

You could also try mixing your protein drinks with something less caloric.

Skim milk = 90 calories, 12 g carbs, 8 g protein

Hood Calorie Countdown Nonfat Milk = 35 calories, 4 g carbs, 6 g protein

Carbmaster Vanilla Reduced Sugar Milk = 60 calories, 3 g carbs, 11 g protein
