    Well to answer your second question first when I read the allergy information, it states that the plant they use does also manufacture products that use nuts. This is actually from the Shakeology Facebook page when someone asked the same question: "There is a small chance of cross-contamination at the manufacturing plant with soy and nut ingredients. As a result, we have added this allergen warning to our packaging on all flavors."

    That said to answer your first question I am using Shakeology and I like it. I drink it in the morning and find it DOES fill me up until lunchtime (so I don't snack) and I really do not crave chocolate or sweets the way I normally do in the afternoon. I have a little more energy as well since I have been taking it.

    Well, it's "food" and you can digest it, so in that sense, it works.

    Can the nutrition be had much, much, much cheaper without having to deal with multilevel marketing? Yes. A 5lb tub of reasonably good protein powder is between $40-60.

    the ONLY downside to shakeology is the price. I can guarantee you that a good protein powder will not have 1/4 of the ingredients of what shakeology does :/ I ordered two months worth of it just to have during the insanity program and it makes for an easy and super delicious meal to make (which is a big deal since I am eating 5 meals a day! haha)
