Muscle Milk - Are the claims true?

Check out this link: www.bodybuilding.com/.../milk.html Firstly, are the claims for real? Anyone out there taking it who can back up anything that the makers claim it does? Secondly, is it legal? It seems to be on a par with Creatine which, as far as I can ascertain from other threads on this forum, is not banned. Finally, are there any hazards to taking something like this? sincerely Syd

    Try estimating your current protein intake in grams per day, and you may find that you are already getting enough. Some sources say that the US recommended daily allowance for protein is too low (I think it is 50g) and that 1.2-1.4g/kg body weight is a better amount for endurance athletes. Sources vary on whether you should use lean body weight or full body weight in that calculation. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/.../entrez I think there are some MDs on this board who may comment. We may have dietitians too.
