    shake

    Since I blend my morning oats up with 1 scoop of whey, 6oz of skim, and about 5 egg whites.....I am wondering if this counts as a shake? I know I blend it up...I mean it still works the same way as it would if I just ate the oats and egg whites right?

    Yes, that good, except the fact that you should be using pasteurised egg beaters instead of the raw egg whites.

    The raw egg white cannot be fully digested by the human body.

    True, the calculated true ileal digestibility of cooked egg protein amounted to 91%, compared to about 50% of the raw egg...

    icewind--what is it with the egg beaters that allows for greater digestibility?

    How does raw oats taste? (I'm assuming they were not cooked).
