    In skimming over this, did beach body ever come back with a reply? I personally love shakeology Choc. Did my last one yesterday. Then went to gnc. If I was going to get the stuff there that's in the shake, the $ is super close, plus I'd have to take pills as big as my thumb. And I love the taste soooo much! Their distribution warehouse is about 20 miles from my house, I'd be willing to work pt there ( looking for job anyways) just to get the discount to drink it again!!!! I'm sad I'm out & have to wonder what the peeps are drinking that say shakeology tastes terrible . Do you get mad at Starbucks because their making money off you ?? And this is way healthier than that !
    Starbucks makes money of a reasonable price. $4 for a serving from shakeology compared to $1 a serving for the avg shake is 4 times more, but the product ISN'T 4 times better nor effective. And where does that money go too? To some upline that has joe schmoe on their down line.
    If you've read the whole thread, you'd know by now that Beach Body DOESN'T manufacture the product (it's done by a 3rd party that makes protein powders for several other companies as well) and doesn't oversee where the raw product is derived from. That means that there's no assurance that the product is as "pure" as Beach Body makes it sound since it doesn't manufacture it.

    I did NOT read the whole thread which I stated in the first few words of my post. It's my opinion to say that I like ...no, LOVE the taste of shakeology. People like you suck the fun out of these boards. Honestly, it's my 4bucks, not yours ! Have a great day!:drinker: Yeah shakeology !!!

    I am quite amazed at the OP's questions. He obviously knows his stuff when it comes to personal nutrition. As a new BB coach I am glad that you asked these questions and I am also glad that Ric was able to help you out and find some of the answers to them for you. (I was actually just in the process of searching for them when I saw that he had posted the answers already).
    BB just came out with some vegan formulas so I am curious to know if they have any further insights on some of the questions you poised. I will email Shakeology and ask your questions and post their response on here!

    I find the ingredient label for the vegan protein hilarious, they are trying to be even more deceptive with a monster prop blend of all their ingredients instead of breaking out each one like on previous labels. The is most likely because it was very easily to spot that nearly all the "superfoods" were laughably underdosed. Granted it's still easy to tell that the majority of the things in ShakeO are underdosed and well under any studied efficacious dose.

    Did acg's questions get answered somewhere in this thread? I didn't want to wade through a million pages if they did not. I just had a friend offer Shakeology to me, and I'm very skeptical.

    Superfoods... I really hate that word

    I did not read the entire thread either but have been drinking Shakeology since it came out and don't have time to list all the reasons why I like it versus some bull**** $1 Slim Fast drink. Let people have an opinion and you and I will stick with what we know lol.
    I am not a Beachbody coach, never will be and don't listen to what 99.99% of them talk about. But I do like Shakeology and it has helped me in many ways.
