PB + oatmeal

[SP1]

Hey fellas;Is it OK to put like 1 tbsp of naturalpb in 1cup of oatmeal if I am tryingt o gain only lean muscle. A friend of mine tried it and says it makes the oatmeal taste good.

usually people will say to not mix carbs and fat. it is a hotly debated issue though.

Just oats and pb? or is there another protien source..?

if there is another protein source then yes... but if ur eating just oats/pb then no

I know that's why I ask; but will one tbs of Natty PB be that bad. If so I'll stay strict??

why is it ok if there is another protein source; im curious? Is pro tein shake alright as the other source.

[JohnboyF]

a protein shake is okay..

well if your eating just carbs/fat (pb) you will store it as fat. incomple meal..

Its like eating Rice and 2 flax caps but nothing else...

OK, but isn't there a pb a protein source also?
