    I just want to know why it tastes so atrocious.

    Because it's made from the powdered, crushed bones of those further down the pyramid.

    Since Im not a nutricianist, guess you will have to hitup the creator and co creators! I am wondering if you ask this many questions to the checkers at walmart where you buy the rest of your food? I am not here to CONVINCE anyone to drink Shakeology..I just know what its done for me and my household, as well as many others who absolutely LOVE the product..
    Blessings to you~

    not sure what being a nutritionist has to do with some of the questions, for instance i would expect a sales rep for a company to know if said product was manufactured in a GMP certified facility and a rep should have access to 3rd party COAs if they were ever preformed on said product.

    and while i don't shop at wal mart to buy my food, you comparing apples to oranges. wal mart clerks are not being paid by any of the companies of products that they are helping scan, while people pushing shakeology are being compensated by the manufacturer of the product, therefore i would expect them to know a little bit about the product they are pushing.

    and with all this said, i take it you have no clue or answers to any of the questions i posed?

    That's the only response that is ever given, which means nothing really. You do realize if you changed nothing else in your diet and life, that you would gain weight drinking this, just like any other protein drink, or food or anything else that has calories, hopefully you at least understand that.

    Well the theory is that if you replace a 1500 calorie meal whith a 500 or whatever calorie shake, you'd probably start to lose weight. That's not really disputes that. But then again, it's not really the "magic exilire of snakeology". It's just simple less caloires in.

    well i get almost all my protein from whole foods, the few protein supps you see in my diary are really used as flavoring agents in sludges and the such vs helping me hit my protein for the day.

    But to answer your question I currently own

    First off wow, this thread is getting viscous. I'm a coach but I have only been doing this since Sept so I'm not really one who should be responding because I am still in training and not sure what I have "access" to, as you put it. Second, I think anyone who starts off a question with that much negativity wants to not like something. I will never say it's a perfect formula - it's just better for you and taste better than all the rest. I'm not the scientist on the team and I highly doubt anyone but the scientist and nutritionist who created it are the only ones who could answer most if not all your questions. . I would be fascinated to find out what else you eat, if this is the scrutiny you give you food. Better not catch you ever eating a $5 footlong at Subway. lol

    I believe it's impossible as a distributor or consumer to ever know everything about a product you sell or eat. That's probably only info the creators and makers themselves would know. There may be more info in my online office on it that I am not aware of, Idk.

    Bottom line, most ppl just try products and see how it makes them feel. Beachbody gives 100% bottom of the bag guarantee. If you don't like it for any reason just send it back, no questions ask. I personally love shakeology along with thousands of other people who do. There are thousands of testimonials from ppl who drink it for lots of different reasons. If you want to drink it just because of the health benefits that's fine. Lots of people drink it for that reason because they don't like fruits and vegetables. Some use it as a meal replacement to help with their weight loss, some have gotten off medications drinking it. My personal experience with it is, I have fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. When I drink Shakeology I have more energy to get up off the couch and workout and do other things, my appetite is curbed for about 2hrs afterwards and because when I'm drinking it, I'm getting the nutrients I need, that helps with my pain. No whey protein and meal replacement shake has ever done that for me, ever! I'm 46, have struggled with my weight and health for many yrs, I have tried many meal replacements shakes and whey proteins, and I can tell you that there is nothing like shakeology. Sure, you're thinking....of course she's saying that, she's trying to sell it. Sure, I would love to make a sell but I am so convinced that nothing compares to shakeology that I don't even care if you buy it from me or not. You probably wont even buy it because you've already convinced yourself it's no better than anything else. I think you're just out to try and prove it's no better than anything you could buy. I disagree, Again, the only way you can know that for sure is to try it and compare it for yourself.

    Here are some links for you. Read, click the links and go from there. If you decide you want to order from me then great, send me an email because I am not allowed to post the link to my site on here.

    Compare for yourself: a comparison chart, Shakeology on fox news, Shakeology, where the ingredients come from and See what Doctors are saying about Shakeology.
