Troubleshooting
Powder doesn't mix well, clumps in liquid.
Ensure you add liquid first, then powder. Shake vigorously for at least 20-30 seconds. Using a shaker bottle with a mixing ball or whisk can help. Try adjusting the liquid-to-powder ratio slightly.
Taste is too strong or too mild.
Adjust the amount of liquid used. More liquid will dilute the flavor, less liquid will intensify it. You can also mix it with different liquids like milk for a creamier taste.
Experiencing digestive discomfort after consumption.
Start with a smaller serving size to allow your body to adjust. Ensure adequate water intake throughout the day. If discomfort persists, consult a healthcare professional. Note that whey protein contains lactose, which some individuals may be sensitive to.
