Which Cottage cheese should I buy? Any recommendations? page 2

@Sean. I find the 1:4 protein to carb ratio as recovery (no later than 30 minutes after the effort) as working very well. I experimented it, changing the ratio or simply skipping it. It influenced performance significantly.


I take the protein out of almonds and carbs out of apples and banana, blend it in water.

Actually, Cottage cheese is not expensive comparing to nuts and good quality red meat.

MichaelA,


I like fish, but not to the point where I would want to eat it every day. Nuts and red meat can get pretty expensive! Thanks though.

I don't eat much dairy because of the many problems associated with it, but I have recently been experimenting with post-heavy-lifting (2x weekly) snacks of 1/2 cup cottage cheese plus 1 kiwi with good results.


Much as I love the stuff, I don't eat it any other time. It's not the best choice of foods.
