Yeah, unless you can find some 0 fat gram icecream (they are out there, uses skim milk). Otherwise the fat slows absorption. The degree of fat slowing down absorption is perhaps overrated according to Alan Aragon. In a study on pizza, the highest rate of carb absorption was still in the first hour. I will try to track down the study. Note also a study on the comparision of whole milk and skim milk PWO: "Elliot and colleagues compared the effect of fat-free milk, whole milk, and a higher dose of fat-free milk (to match the calories of the whole milk) taken 60 minutes post-resistance exercise.24 Whole milk was superior for increasing net protein balance. Interestingly, the calorie-matched dose of fat free milk containing 14.5g protein, versus 8.0g in the whole milk (an 81% advantage), but still got beaten. The investigators speculated over the possible mechanisms behind the outcome (insulin response, blood flow, subject response differences, fat content improving nitrogen retention), but end up dismissing each one in favor of concluding that further research is necessary to see if extra fat calories ingested with an amino acid source will increase muscle protein synthesis. Lingering questions notwithstanding, post-workout milkfat was the factor that clinched the victory ? at least in overnight-fasted subjects." see Is It Necessary to “Spike” Insulin Post-workout? | Kelly Frankson DOT COM [...] [...] Quote posted by OneBreath I want icecream………………..
