in Food and Nutrition
For those that use them which one do you use and why please?

I'm looking at TheProteinWorks at the moment for the balance of minerals - what do you prefer?

I have my reasons for using them for my health and weight loss (I have a particular medical condition)

Ty :)

    Can you be referred to a registered dietician? They would best be able to help you.

    I've used soylent powder every now and then when I am hungry and need a meal on the go/ don't feel like cooking. I don't use it often, but it's a pretty neutral taste. It will stop your stomach growling when you're hungry and have a decent balance on nutrition. I highly recommend real food though. Our bodies are designed to eat real foods that are solid :) We best absorb nutrients this way

    The problem with asking people on an Internet forum is that no one knows what your medical condition is, and even if we did know, an RD who specializes in that condition would be a more reliable source of advice. We might accidentally give you advice that isn’t suited to your medical needs.

    I have seizures and sometimes my body won't behave itself and cooking is difficult. Nothing gastro-intestinal. Just easy shakes when I am tired,broken and put on the sofa. No biggie, just would make my life a hell of a lot easier.

    That's why I am asking what are people's favourite brands as they are expensive and I would rather have recommendations

    I use the ProteinWorks as it has been the least offensive taste-wise. It blends well and keeps me full.
