whey protien 1 scoop (1 Scoop)

Choose an unsweetened whey isolate or hydrolysate with no added sugar, maltodextrin, syrup solids, or high-carbohydrate flavoring powders; compare labels for total carbohydrate per scoop.

Use a half scoop first, or split one scoop into two smaller servings taken 1–2 hours apart, then monitor your response.

Mix the whey with water or unsweetened soy milk rather than juice, regular milk, sweetened plant milks, or blended fruit.

Have the shake alongside a small amount of fat and fiber, such as chia seeds, ground flaxseed, walnuts, or almonds, instead of drinking it alone.

Take the whey after or with a balanced meal containing non-starchy vegetables, protein, and healthy fats, rather than on an empty stomach.

Consider a 10–20 minute easy walk or other light activity after the shake, if safe for you, to help reduce the post-meal rise.
