Protein Shake Help

Does anyone know how much fat should be in our protein shakes? I just bought a pumpkin spice one from GNC that had only 3 grams of sugar (I think) but it has 6 grams of fat. That seems like a lot?

That's a question for your nutritionist since most tend to individualize eating recommendations.

So I think I remember my NUT saying less than 5g per serving. Here is my suggestion - how about using a smaller or half serving of the Pumpkin Spice one and then use something like an unflavored or even vanilla powder to mix with it that you know meets the nutrition requirements? I use Precision Engineered whey Isolate in Vanilla and it even SMELLS yummy. It only has 1g of fat per scoop (1g of carb and 30 g protein). I HIGHLY recommend this brand.
