d) First thing in the morning - to boast metabalism
e) Before bed - if you're trying to gain mass
f) An hour to an hour and a half before a workout
g) As an the go as a meal replacement

The truth is that all seven of these statements work! A protein shake serves as a quick and easy replacement meal, so feel free to incorporate it into your day as needed.
