Can Hot Chocolate replace my daily protein shake?

Though Hot Chocolate is rich in protein for its serving size, we do not recommend it as a replacement to a protein shake. This is because it does not include the complete amino acid profile that a protein shake does. Hot Chocolate can be consumed in conjunction with your daily protein shake to provide you with some serious macronutrient boosts, however it is important you follow the recommended daily intake. Like any supplement or treat, Hot Chocolate is best enjoyed as part of a balanced diet. If hot drinks aren't your thing, we have plenty of other high protein snacks available for you to enjoy in moderation.

Can I have Hot Chocolate in the same day as I have a protein shake?

Yes - the amount of protein in a serving of Hot Chocolate is fine to be consumed on the same day as a protein shake. However, if you are actively looking to boost your protein intake for the purpose of lean muscle gain, we recommend taking the two spread out across the day as the body cannot store protein. It is important you know how much protein your body needs so that you do not go over the recommended amount. Check out our blog to discover how much protein you need per day.
