gelatin drink

when is it most effective to drink it? any particular time.? doesnt say anything on my bottle. (before, during meals, etc)

i took it on an ampty stomach with my l-arginine.
boy is the gelatin drink NASTY! it doesnt dissolve! (in water). i have to do this 3x/day????!!!
;-)

I'm not sure when is the best time to drink it, but I manage to swallow only 1 glass a day http://serve.mysmiley.net/sick/sick0025.gif No way I could do it 3 times....
But what really makes me sick is BSD http://serve.mysmiley.net/sick/sick0022.gif

Wow, taking it on an empty stomach, that's brave LOL!

I couldn't find any info on this, but for best protein digestion, you should eat your protein with some acids, so I would think that gelatin would also be best digested with acids. So you could do gelatin drink with lemon water or ACV and it may help.

I agree with you girls,gelatin is nasty n stinks.What I did was to dissolve it in a little hot water and mixed it with two whole lemons squeezed to make my lemon drink,that way I could stomach it. I used the knox powder in tin that foodservice use,that was cheaper for me cos of how much I was taking.GL,HTH.

I'm now drinking gelatine in green tea and some lemon, and it's (almost) completely OK!
I even tried to add BS in it, but that was NOT OK LOL! I've almost th**w up....

Ugh it sounds AWFUL!!!

:rofl:
It is awful, but I drank it anyway, didn't want to waste gelatine and green tea lol!
It was excellent suggestion to mix gelatine with green tea, thanks again!!!! :kiss: Gelatine was torture and now I'm drinking it without problems! :agree:

LOL ZB that drink does sound horrid!

Maryam yours sounds good ... I too used the Knox and just mixed it in pineapple juice and chugged it. I figured the juice covered some carbs to go with the protein in the gelatin.

Ohh this sounds like a great idea. Do you the gelatin and fruit drink could be used as a snack or is it additional to snacks?
