I cant see how a solid meal with the exact same ingredients can be superior to a shake which will break down faster and be absorbed faster.
That's the whole point bro - you want your body to use energy digesting food - this is the mechanism that boosts your metabolism and facilitates lean muscle mass/fat loss - that alone is what makes whole food meals superior to shakes IMO...

Which is where I take the route that I *think* the GI of certain foods change based upon the consistency in which they're eaten/digested...

Just like you preach that sugars kill the goals of your diet (because you want consistent blood sugar levels) the same holds true for the GI indexes of what you eat....

BECAUSE: when most people eat whey shakes, they just drink the shake down and wait for their next meal. In order NOT to feel hungry an hour later, you need some fats or some carbs taken in with it to SLOW the digestion. Which then leads to you feeling fuller longer.

Whole food meals are always better than shakes. But when people need the extra protein & cals, or are on the run, they add the shakes.

The reason you feel hungry soon after is because you need to add some fats OR carbs. Eat your shake w/ a rice cake & natty PB or 1/4c of nuts and see what happens

redback you are trying to fight something simply because you want to use shakes instead of full meals. real food meals are superior, end of story.

and no, you never want to slow your metabolism. you simply need to eat more cals then your body is burning.
