Is chaas good for a gym diet?

It has some protein (5.3 g per 100 calories), but not enough to lean on. Pair it with dal, paneer or curd to fill the gap.

Most of its calories come from fat (66%), then protein (21%) and carbs (13%).

A gym meal usually aims for 25 g of protein or more, depending on your daily target. From this alone, that's 13 glasses (about 480 calories). The same 25 g from soya chunks is about 170 calories.
