Liquid Calories
Liquids don't satiate you. You drink 200 calories of whey and you're hungry 20 minutes later. Eating 200 calories of chicken breast takes effort and keeps you full.
The Processing Problem
Most powders are full of gums, fillers, and artificial sweeteners that bloat your gut. If you look 6 months pregnant after your shake, it's not 'bulking', it's inflammation.
Nutrient Density
Whole foods come with a matrix of micronutrients—zinc, iron, B12—that isolated powders lack. Nature packages protein better than a lab.
When to Shake
Shakes are for *convenience*, not optimization. If you literally cannot eat, drink. Otherwise, chew your food.
