    I enjoy then and drink them most days. I have some from GNC that I mostly use after workouts, as well as I have some meal replacements ones from Visalus.

    I usually make them with almond milk and some greek yogurt and its like a healthy Milk Shake :)

    Depends... what is your thoughts behind taking one?

    They should be used to supplement a diet not replace parts of it, if your diet is sorted and you are lacking a bit of protein then go for it.

    I have them for breakfast four times a week post workout. I use 1 cup Almond Milk, 1/2 cup frozen unsweetened fruit(berries of some kind usually) and 1 scoop and a half of GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - Vanilla....(I mix it in a blender and like it that way much better than any other. It is really good and filling.

    Well I think it would be good to help build lean muscle. I've never really tried them before. I think im going to give it a try. The one i ordered has a superior protein blend that is non-hormonal whey protein and isolate sources and provide an anti-oxident blend of superfoods.

    Thanks
