Hi everyone,
Does anyone drink shakeology? Do you feel it is safe? Do you know of any alternatives that are cheaper but still healthy? Even probiotic supplements? I have so many problems with regularity and cravings, and when I did a sampler pack of shakeology it seemed to help, but it was soooooo pricey.

I found shakeology to be overpriced and tasted like crap.
But are you looking for a protein shake or a true meal replacement?
If you want a protein shake, I would recommend PEScience or Quest. And if you have regularity issues, look at an activia yogurt.6 -
I use the Vitamin Shoppe brand protein powder and then I drink my magic coffee! Working like a charm, down 10 pounds!6

I have tried Shakeology and it's not for me. It made me feel bloated and I took it like instructed and gained weight. My gym uses BioTrust and Precision products and I love the BioTrust the most. Plus Shakeology is a pyramid scheme and the products are pushed on you by sales people just trying to make a buck off of you and most can't answer basic questions about the product.1

Shakeology was acceptable in terms of taste, but it did a number on my stomach.
My favorite supplement is Spiru-tein (Chocolate). I do not like the other flavors.
Aside from being complete protein, it is also fortified with vitamins and minerals.
GNC and Vitamin Shoppe sell it. Check both cause there's always a sale going.

My wife drinks Shakeology every morning at work and loves it. She enjoys the taste (usually with almond milk and a banana), and she finds it sits better with her than other protein supplements. As far as "safe", I haven't heard any safety issues with it, and it's ingredients tend by generally get good reviews from non-beachbody reviewers. But yes, it is expensive, and there are other protein powder options out there that are a lot cheaper.0

I love Shakeology but it's soooo expensive. I'm trying Vega One. Just bought it today.3

I love Shakeology.. used them for years.. then I became vegan and for whatever reason decided not to buy the vegan version. (I might order it in the fall when I have less fresh produce options). I think they are delicious! If you're like me and buy a latte every morning, you can offset the cost by cutting out the daily latte purchase. My only issue with them is lack of transparency with the ingredient quantities.0

I like Vegaone also, Ive tried Shakeology and nothing made it worth the price they charge. I only do a protein shake in the morning for convenience. I can get it ready and drink it on the way to work.

I buy plain protein powder and add fat and fiber to make a balanced meal.
All MLM schemes are overpriced and overpromised.
