Generally, it should be eaten as soon as possible within 2 months after opening the lid, and it is best not to eat it after 1 year. This kind of nutritious food goes bad easily.
Generally, the advice for selling powder is to drink it within 3 months after opening, but it will be fine within half a year. However, this time is a bit long, depending on whether the powder is caked with moisture, stinks, and has other smells. If the time is too long, the nutrition of protein powder will gradually lose. You should consider it according to the actual situation.
If the muscle building powder is opened and sealed, it can be eaten as long as it is within the shelf life. Generally, the shelf life of muscle-building powder is more than half a year, so it is enough to eat muscle-building powder during this time.
However, when using muscle-building powder temporarily, we should pay attention to its shelf life, some ways of taking it and matters needing attention. Next, let's talk about some misunderstandings in the use of muscle building powder.
Several misunderstandings of eating muscle-building powder
Misunderstanding 1 easily leads to obesity.
Many people think that muscle-building powder contains too many carbohydrates, so it is a substance that can lead to obesity. In fact, proper intake of carbohydrates can transform the catabolic state caused by training into anabolic state. Therefore, carbohydrates in the daily diet of bodybuilders and muscle builders should account for 60% to 65%, so as to give full play to the role of carbohydrates during exercise and avoid fat increase.
Myth 2: You can gain muscle by eating muscle-increasing powder.
In fact, many people will misunderstand this, but we should know that muscle-increasing powder is only a nutritional supplement to promote recovery and muscle growth after exercise, and it has a promoting effect, so this effect can only be achieved in the right way. If taken improperly, there is no muscle gain effect.
Myth 3: Eating more muscle-increasing powder can effectively promote rapid muscle growth.
Since muscle powder can effectively promote muscle growth, it is ok for us to eat more. It is also incorrect to maintain this mentality. When taking muscle-building powder, in order to gain weight and muscle quickly in a short time, you should not eat too much muscle-building powder, because excessive consumption will not only lead to gastrointestinal discomfort and digestive system disorder, but also make the serotonin content in the body too high, which will easily lead to drowsiness.
It can also be seen from here that how long the muscle-increasing powder can be stored after taking it depends on its production date and shelf life. Therefore, when buying, I want to keep the muscle gain powder for a long time, and try to buy products with a later production date. In addition, when taking muscle-building powder, we must also take the correct way, otherwise the expected effect will not be achieved.
