    I gotta agree. Never heard of this. Protein shakes or any protein for that matter gives me energy. Might be something else making you sleepy and its just gotten in your head that its the protein shakes.

    How much are you drinking? TOO many carbs or high glycemic carbs?

    Whey always makes me tired... so does milk... who knows why.. I started drinking a shake before workout and it had me yawning the whole time. I still drink em, but they do make me sleepy and slow.

    are you getting enough sleep at night? are you taking your protein PWO? do you warm up bologna and stick it between the couch cushions and thrust into that for a good hour? just some questions that might be the reason...
