I continue to take a daily protein shake simply because I cannot yet manage to eat enough to get in all the protein needed.  I also enjoy fairly strenuous work outs and recently added both BCAA (branch chain amino acids) and L-Glutamine powders to my shakes.  While checking out those items at GNC, I noticed a new product on the shelf to enhance the flavor of those shakes.  I already make a very enjoyable shake and they go down pretty well but this new item makes a vastly improved flavor!  It's a small, half-ounce container of powder called "Mix'ns" and I saw just two flavors: Cinnamon Swirl and Blueberry Muffin.  I added the cinnamon swirl to this morning's shake along with the usual add-in like chia seeds, yogurt, etc... and zounds(!) - delicious.  It adds zero calories and has a very short list of ingredients.  Just thought I'd pass it along to those of you wanting a little better-tasting drink.

Thanks, I try to just buy vanilla flavor powdered protein shakes then flavor it up by the glass. This sounds like a good option.
