When you workout intensely, you put your body under tremendous stress and it will immediately begin searching for specific nutrients - particularily protein - in an effort to repair it's self.  
If protein isn't readily available, then your body will harvest it's own directly from the muscle tissue you just finished busting your butt so hard to build. Your body will also spare your fat stores to protect it's self from what it interprets as possibly being a long term survival emergency. 
Both of these are exactly the opposite of what you want and, to quote a friend of mine who is a Lt. Colonel in the US ARMY, "That don't make no sense at all!"
To help combat this problem Whey Protein, Creatine, and Highly Glycemic Carbs are excellent supplements to be used immediately after a workout as they are absorbed quickly and therefore go to work in the body almost immediately. 
TIP: You've got about 15 - 30 minutes to properly fuel your body after a workout!
Although this short "Anabolic Window" is a critical period of time, it's during the next 24-48 hours that the true muscle building growth process occurs. The downside of protein powders is that they only provide anabolic
support for a few hours... which is far less than what your body really needs.
This is why every Bodybuilder worth their weight in iron knows that a proper nutrition plan using REAL FOOD is an Essential Key to getting Big, Strong, and Lean. Sure there's a few supplements that certainly have value, but nothing can replace real food nutrition.
The Bodybuilding diet is of such importance it's commonly thought to be the most decisive piece of an overall training regime.  Ironically, it's often the most poorly practiced. You Are What You Eat and High Quality Protein plays a critical part.  
It doesn't matter if you're trying to bulk up or lose fat, the average "ACTIVE" person should be consuming 1.5 grams of Protein per pound of bodyweight per day, possibly even more for hardcore bodybuilders and athletes.
( That's not exactly a big secret )
However, the problem has always been how to get enough high quality protein into your system, at the right time, and without loading up on fat or breaking the bank by buying boat loads of expensive Steaks, Fish, or Processed Protein Powders?
The answer to that is much more simple than you might think as one of the very best sources for "Real Food" protein is found in ordinary eggs. 
Egg Protein is of such High Quality, that in their quests to get Massive and Shredded it's common for the Pro's to be eating up to 14 dozen eggs or more per week! Even so, it's really the "Egg Whites" they're after as the yolks contain too little protein and way too much fat and cholesterol.
 Let's face it, cracking a couple dozen of eggs every day, separating the yolks from the whites, and then having to cook, eat, and finally clean up the mess - is both time consuming and a heck of a lot of work! I'm sure you'll agree, this gets really old really fast - especially if you're a busy person on-the-go.
That's why we've all seen, or maybe even done ourselves, the infamous "Rocky Routine" drinking a big glass of raw eggs.
Not only is this dangerous (due to the threat of salmonella) it's also a complete waste of time because there's an enzyme contained in raw egg (avidin) that prevents the body from digesting and actually using the protein.  In additon, you may even develop a vitamin deficency!
So... what's the solution?
Ideally, you want a high grade "real food" protein source that is Quick, Easy, and Effective. Well, leave it to the bodybuilding community to once again lead the world with what happens to be one of the best kept protein secrets... "Real" 100% Pure "Pastureized" Liquid Egg Whites by Egg Whites International.

THE BEST KEPT PROTEIN SECRET ! 
</center>
NOTE: Do NOT confuse this with the old stinky "powdered" egg products... 
What we're talking about here is Pure "Liquid" Egg Whites that have been pasteurized. They are tasteless, odorless, safe, and come "Ready to Eat" mixing instantly without cooking into just about anything you can imagine... including your favorite juices, meal replacements, energy, diet, or protein drinks.
The pasteurization process keeps all of the valuable amino acids intact - all of the valuable protein is preserved and usable - yet any salmonella that may have been present is destroyed. They are USDA inspected and Kosher approved.
In addition, pasteurization also neutralizes the avidin enzyme so all of the precious muscle building - fat burning protein is used by the body. Pure Liquid Egg Whites provide 100% bio-availabile high grade protein - none of the protein is wasted!
100% PURE "PASTEURIZED" LIQUID EGG WHITES
As mentioned earlier, Whey protein is an excellent supplement to use right after your workout because of it's quick absorbtion.  The problem with protein drinks is that they are NOT 100% bio-available and they "Give Up" after a couple of hours.

In comparison, 100% Pure Liquid Egg Whites may take longer to be processed, but Egg Whites go on to provide up to 5 hours or more of anabolic muscle building support.
The combination of the two is ideal to provide both immediate and long term anabolism which is the very best environment you can create for muscle growth or fat loss. You'll even save money on your protein powder because you only need to use 1/2 the amount!
ARE YOU SERIOUS ABOUT BUILDING MUSCLE ! 
If you're serious at all about gaining muscle and burning fat - There are three very important ways to use 100% Pure Liquid Egg Whites...
1) Add 6 to 8 ounces of Liquid Egg Whites to a protein powder shake immediately after your workout.
A slightly different strategy is to use your protein powder immediately after your workout as you normally do (You are doing this right?) and then have 6-8 ounces of Pure Liquid Egg Whites 1-2 hours later. This will give you both immediate and extended long term anabolic support.
Too complicated? Then just mix the two immediately after your workout and be done with it!
2) Use 6 to 8 ounces of egg whites in a glass of milk or mixed with a protein shake before going to bed.  
For years Bodybuilders have been cracking, seperating, cooking, and eating a dozen eggs before going to sleep every night. This is because if you don't put protein into your body before you go to bed, after a few hours you'll enter into a catabolic state. Your body will shut down, start storing fat cells, and begin to consume your own muscle mass.
 Having a high protein liquid egg white drink just before you go to bed will support anabolic activity throughout most of the night. Now the process is reversed as the time-release protein from the egg whites allows your body to burn fat at its normal rate while promoting muscle growth.
3) Use 6 to 8 ounces in glass of Juice as part of a Quick but balanced Breakfast. 
Most people will agree that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It's also the one meal we most often skip and so we make up for it by eating a huge dinner.  This is completely backwards, especially if you're trying to cut up!
As a quick and easy solution, simply pump 6-8 ounces into a glass of your favorite juice and be on your way.  There's no cooking or mess, plus you've given yourself some much needed fuel to power your day.

That sounds pretty good there Ghost. I gotta check that out.

I just ordered 2 gallons and the pump attachment. I will use it for breakfast and at night for the prolonged anti-catabolic effect.

If you figure it out, they are so damn cheap compared to egg beaters, I got to get some....

The overnite thing is a big problem for me, so this may benefit me greatly. Plus im lazy when it gets time to crash out. Haha.

do the liquid egg whites have a strong taste to them? in other words if i mix it with my protein shake will the shake mask the taste? I can't stand the taste of eggs

ghostdog · #6 11-28-2006, 05:26 PM

I tried Egg whites International., and they mixed well and there was no taste. I was very impressed with them.

Are you talking about these or just using raw egg whites though?
