Okay so I was told that if you freeze protein powders like to make ice cream that it breaks down the protein messing with its absorbtion. Is this true or just a bunch of fluff

Even if it does, it doesn't matter much.

thats what I was thinking. we have this daughter who is buying her mother (going thru chemo) and she freezes those new protein shots so she can eat them and I was there when my manager said NO you can't freeze it it will make it worthless. I just :rolleyes:

Depends. When you're talking PP which has been made from raw-processed milk then it's not a good idea unless you freeze it really fast. If you talk about plain jane PP, then it doesn't matter.
