Sugar/starch followed by protein.

How much sugar is necessary to get the optimum benefit of the protein? And what kind of suagr? My protein has 5g carbs (2g sugars) and I drink it with a cup of milk (lactose). Is this enough? Or should I eat something like an apple with the protein shake?

Easiest thing would be a High protein, High carb (simple and complex) shake

5g of carbs seems a little thin for a good insulin response. A piece of fruit would be fine. I'd say at least 20g of carbs.

what about Serious Mass gainer shake(625 cals,12.5 grms of carbs 20 grms of sugar and 25 grms of protein) with a Banana. I take it 30 mins after my workout, do you agree with this or disagree?

Dude... 200 calories are coming from protein and carbohydrate. Have you thought about where the other 425 calories are coming from?

25 grms of protein


More!

Immediately after a workout, I'd try to take in at least 40g
