    Confused about muscle milk

    I am thinking of trying muscle milk as I hear nothing but good things about it but I have a few questions:

    1. It has alot of good fats in it (18 g to be exact). If I'm taking this before bed or during the day do I need to take a fat source with it (like flax) to slow absorbtion or is there enough fat in the drink where I don't need to take a fat source with it to slow absorbtion? I was thinking of taking 2 tbsp of natty pb with this before bed, that would make (with the natty pb) 40 g protein, 30 g fats, and 18 g carbs. Is that too much before bed?

    2. It also has 12 g of carbs in it. Will that make this drink bad to take before bed because of the 12 g of carbs in it? Especially if I'm cutting.

    3. I usually take an Isopure shake as my PWO shake. Is Muscle milk a good shake to drink PWO? The label says you can drink it anytime (before bed, during workout, and PWO) but I would think the high fat content would make this shake a bad one to drink PWO.

    4. It says it contains creatine in it. Lets say you were taking one shake (2 scoops) a day before bed, is there enough creatine in it to give any benefits?

    5. And lastly, there is only 32 g of protein per serving. If I was drinking a Muscle milk shake before I went to bed is 32 g of protein enough to feed my muscles through the night?

    Thanks in advance fellas!
