Protein shakes

[Immortal Soldier]

It's not a problem, just make sure you getting enough calories/carbs/food protein from your other 4 solid meals.

What the problem with some people is they take 3 shakes a day (50+ grams protein) then slack off of the actual food part and don't get in good high protein/calorie foods.

A protein shake is just protein, no carbs, no calories, nothing. You can only have so much of "artificial protein".

Basically the rule of thumb is try to get as much as you can from food sources and the ones you can't get, get from shakes.
