Or add it to a blender with milk, fruit, greens, nut butter, or other fun add-ins, and itâs an anytime snack or meal replacement. (And a delicious one at that.).
Storing protein powder properly is very important and extremely easy to do. Firstly, keep the protein powderâs container sealed tightly when itâs stored. The powder tends to absorb any moisture that it can, so keeping the container with its top on is quite healthy. It stops any water from getting anywhere near the powder. Keeping the container from any sources of heat is also vital.
