Shaky and nauseous before or after the shake? Sounds like rapidly dropping blood sugar, that's how I felt sometimes. If you've worked out and depleted your glycogen, there's no glucose available.

Is your program daily intense exercise? If you deplete all your glycogen every day, it's hard to keep up just from extra protein and fat. Mark Sisson writes that when people do intense exercise every 2d or 3d day there's time to replenish glycogen in between. If your exercise gets ahead of your body's ability to come up with glycogen/glucose, you'll feel pooped, shaky and nauseous pretty darn regularly.
