Short answer: the best time is the time you’ll actually take it. Breakfast, after the gym, or a 3 p.m. pick-me-up—what matters most is consistently hitting your daily protein goal.
This guide covers timing, portions, and how each TAHA grass-fed New Zealand protein fits different moments—plus a clear note on getting protein from real foods first.
Food first, supplements to fill the gaps
Your protein should come from a mix of whole foods—think eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, chicken, fish, tofu/tempeh, beans, lentils, and cottage cheese—and, when helpful, a scoop of TAHA. Treat protein powder as a tool to round out your day, not the whole plan.
A practical timing tip: aim to include 25–35g of protein in meals or snacks spaced about every 3–4 hours.
That might look like:
- Breakfast: eggs + Greek yogurt or oats + fruit + TAHA Mind + Body Blend (25g protein)
- Lunch: chicken/salmon/tofu with grains & veggies
- Snack: cottage cheese or a smoothie with TAHA Whey (25g) or Whey Isolate (30g protein)
- Dinner: beans/lentils & grains or lean meat + salad/veg
How much protein per serving?
Most people do well with 25–35g of high-quality protein at a time to support muscle repair, recovery, and satiety.
- TAHA Whey Protein (Concentrate) — 25g per serving
- TAHA Whey Protein Isolate — 30g per serving
-

All TAHA Whey Proteins are made using grass-fed New Zealand dairy—clean, high-quality protein you can feel good about.
With food or without?
Choose what feels best for you.
- Without food (add to water or milk): Light and quick—great before or after training or when time is tight.
- With food (add to smoothies, oats, yogurt): Digests a bit slower and often feels more filling—ideal for breakfast or a snack that actually keeps you going.
Either way, the key is meeting your daily total.
Timing made simple
Before a workout (30–90 min):
A scoop with water or milk for steady energy and a head start on recovery.
- Choose Whey Protein Isolate (30g protein) if you want the biggest single hit of protein.
After a workout (within a couple of hours):
A shake helps you land your daily target and support recovery.
- Whey Protein (Concentrate) (25g protein) or Whey Protein Isolate (30g protein) both shine here.
Mornings or busy afternoons:
Blend into smoothies, oats, or yogurt to stay full and focused.
- Mind + Body Whey Protein Blend (25g protein) is a great all-in-one daily scoop—with VERISOL® collagen and Nutiani™ milk phospholipids.
- Whey Protein (Concentrate)(25g protein) is a classic, creamy base for everyday use.
Which TAHA scoop fits your goal?
