Whey (Ultimate Nutrition) (1 Serving) and Banana (1 Medium (7 Inches To 7 7/8 Inches Long))

Use a smaller, less-ripe banana rather than a very ripe one; firmer bananas generally produce a slower rise.

Have the banana and whey as part of a meal instead of on an empty stomach.

Add chia seeds or ground flaxseed to the shake to increase fiber and slow absorption.

Pair the shake with a small handful of almonds, walnuts, or peanuts for protein and fat.

Choose plain Greek yogurt or unsweetened soy milk as the shake base instead of juice or sweetened milk.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after having the banana and whey.
