    Shakeology: Shaking up its foundations
    Random thoughts from a father and pharmacist.

    "So, you are paying for 17 g of protein, which you could get anywhere for SUBSTANTIALLY cheaper, and an insignificant quantity of dried plant powders. Just to give an example of the insignificance of these quantities, I have some quinoa kicking around the house. The ingredient listing states there is 617 mg of quinoa in Shakeology. I couldn’t even weigh this at home as my kitchen scale is not sensitive enough to detect anything under 2 g. So I had to use my chemistry scale at work. The resulting mass of quinoa seeds, in a single layer, was about the size of a loonie."

    If you want quick and inexpensive, I like Kirkland's version of slim fast (chocolate)

    Keep in mind that shakeology is not just a "protein" shake. It's a meal replacement.

    actually, it is over priced garbage that has nothing to do with health or nutrition...

    Ok. I was just pointing out that a protein shake isn't quite the same thing as a meal replacement shake. Calm down.

    You're correct - Shakeology (which I do not buy or sell) positions itself as a meal replacement shake, which is indeed something different from a protein shake.

    Well if shakeology is so bad then what are the better options? I'm totally ok with trying something else, especially if it's cheaper

    I add fruits and veggies, etc. to protein powder. I use tea for the liquid.
