Muscle Milk® Non Dairy Protein Shake Chocolate. This product has 25g protein and 0g sugar. It is naturally & artificially flavored. It is gluten free and contains no milk and includes milk protein. This product helps build lean muscles and recover after exercise.

It's not “healthy” The artificial sweeteners contained in Muscle Milk are also of concern to some. The Center for Science in the Public Interest advises consumers to avoid these types of sweeteners, which can negatively alter gut bacteria, appear in breastmilk, and potentially increase the risk of certain diseases.

It's a great source of high-quality protein, but generally Muscle Milk has a lower protein-by-weight ratio due to the higher weight of the portion and higher amount of carbohydrates and fats (although it depends on specific product series).

In short, if you drink a protein shake on a rest day, or a day when you're doing less than you might usually do, there's no need to worry about any adverse effects. However, if you're drinking high protein shakes on their own and not to supplement your protein intake when working out, this could cause weight gain.

There can be health consequences if you drink protein shakes without exercising are: (1) less muscle gain, (2) unwanted weight gain, (3) increased risk of kidney-related problems, and (4) abnormal spike in blood glucose level.
