Protein shake recommendations that do not taste like chalk — looking for input

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. The honest answer is that the effect is real, the magnitude is contested, and the individual variation is larger than either. Those three things can all be true at once, and most arguments here are two people holding different parts of that.

Same pattern here, and in the same order. Posting only so the count is not one.

Moderator note: leaving this open. It is being argued well and the disagreement is the useful part. Thread quality here is what the rules are for. Keep it up.

The figures, for anyone assembling their own picture. If you are going to change something, change one thing and give it long enough to express itself. Four weeks is the usual minimum for anything pharmacological on this board, and two weeks of data has told you almost nothing.

I would rather be corrected than agreed with, if it comes to it.

Following on from PeptideChemSF — and this may be the naive question:

Was that from a primary source or from a summary of one?
