Your body is in a anabolic state right after a workout (like minutes according to some scientists, longer according to others) and when you sleep. Protein after a workout or before bed is fine, just make sure you aren't overdoing it. You want a low carb protein shake, and you want to keep it at about 20 to 25 grams at a time (your body can't absorb more than that). Also make sure you aren't taking in too much protein (one grand for every Kilogram you are is fine... 2.2 pounds = 1Kg.) I try to keep my last MEAL around 4 hours prior to bed. But I will take in protein before bed.<br><b>References : </b><br> Protein is fine, if you want to do a meal keep it low on carbs..
