I've been feeling oddly tense/hyper for about an hour after my morning post-lifting whey/creating/hmb shake. Which is mainly a peanut & chocolate flavoured powder from Bulk.
I like the flavour, but it is far far too sweet.
It has got a load of sucralose in it.
I switched to a plain unflavoured version from Bulk this morning... no tense, no hyper. Very noticeable difference. I thought it could just be a post-workout thing, but not pretty sure it is the shake.
Interesting.
The sucralose or the flavouring? Probably not from peanut flavour, but chocolate can do things like this to you and I rarely touch chocolate, and never at 9AM kinda timeframe. (I am full of caffeine tho, and no issues with the caffeine.)
I do wanna blame the sucralose.
I have a load of that PB&C left so I'm going to try blending it down maybe 25/75 to get through it.
