Excellent – short term use for vegetarian body building
Note: as my title suggests I am vegetarian so part of my review will touch on that, particularly the pancreatin.I was 215lbs, 6ft2″ and 13-14% body fat. It is hard to gain at that point because you burn too fast, and getting enough calories in my standard vegetarian diet was difficult. I was at 215lbs for a few years and had trouble getting past that plateau. After one container of this stuff following my normal diet over a week I am at 221lbs with only a slight 0.1-0.2 increase in body fat. Of course I am doing fairly hard-core work-outs as well to keep body fat down. This is a short-term-use product designed to spike calories, not just protein. You can take in 215grams of protein a day, it’s easy enough with all the concentrates out there, but if you aren’t also increasing caloric intake you will have trouble gaining at a certain point. You’ll need way more than a standard 2,000 calories.This is all natural which is why I chose it. I didn’t want artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, or fillers.As of 06-22-13The reviews about taste being bad I think are way off base. This mixes very easily, adding almost no bulk to liquids, similar to whey proteins consistency. The taste, when mixed with milk, makes a thicker, slightly sweeter, and slight vanilla hint, other than that there is absolutely zero other flavors noticeable by me. Mixed with water, it tastes similar to vanilla soy milk. Maybe they changed the formula, or maybe the people who wrote badly about taste need artificial flavors and sweeteners as is typical in gain formulas.I think this stuff has its place in a natural body building regimen, but should probably not be used solidly for extended periods because it is not a “whole food”. It is missing things like beneficial phytochecmicals found in nuts, beans, fruits, veggies etc. Short term though it is awesome and definitely works.The ingredient list is as follows: Whey (from milk), sunflower oil, maltodextrin, soy protein isolate, calcium caseinate, sodium caseinate, soy lechithin, potassium phosphate, mono- and diglycerides, natural flavor (includes soybean extract), guar gum, xanthan gum, tocopherols, apple fiber, corn bran, pea fiber, hydrolyzed whey protein, papain, egg white, bromelain, pancreatin.There are no GMO’s and it is gluten free. Most soy is GMO-soy if they don’t state it isn’t. For example 90% of vegetable oil in super markets is GMO soy. I like that this is clearly non-GMO.On a side note, some body builders are paranoid about soy because they think it is estrongenic, I won’t go into the debate here, but unless you’re a pro body builder or consuming massive amounts of soy, eating some in a mix isn’t going to feminize you or make you loose even one rep. Pre-workout this stuff works and gives easily available carb-fuel. Banging out reps after carb-loaded is a lot easier and the testosterone boost from lifting will more than offset a minor plant-based phytoestrogin.The last ingredient, pancreatin, may not be vegetarian. I haven’t looked into it honestly, but I know it can be either plant or animal based. Likely it is animal based otherwise I wouldn’t see why Naturade wouldn’t advertise the product as vegetarian. As a vegetarian I would give this at least one less star because of the sketchy pancreatin, but I realize only 4% of the US is vegetarian. And honestly, I would rather have all-natural with some trace product than a chemical $h1t-storm.That is my honest review of this product. Hope that helps!

Love this! High calorie
This product has helped me gain about 10 pounds in 2 months. I love the vanilla flavor I blend it with fruit milk and orange juice. DO NOT buy the chocolate flavor it does not taste good and is EXTREMELY salty. The vanilla flavor is great tho. Other products donât have as many calories as this one and have a lot of additional ingredients I donât want. My only complaint is the container is small and lasts only like 3 days to get the full 1600 calories each day. Iâve repurchased this product a few times and highly recommend if you struggle to gain weight like I do. I started at 99 pounds and am about 109 right now. The only thing thatâs been helping me gain weight.

It WORKS!!!! Good Taste
Update!!!Okay, so today is August 21, 2024. Here is the update from my previous post from about 20 days ago! When I started drinking this I was weighing 138lbs since I started and trust, I havenât been extremely consistent, but consistent enough to notice I have gained 4lbs in 1, maybe 2, weeks. I now weigh 142lbs! Yay, me! I know some of you who are reading may think that may be a heavy or âidealâ weight. Let me paint the picture, I am 5â8 and I had lost 25lbs in 3 months due to stressing. I couldnât gain weight to save my life, not to mention, I have been trying to train for light bodybuilding, so I really didnât have 25lbs to be losing. Long story short, I need to get back to at least 150 lbs and maintain it in order to properly train for competitionâ¦..Naturade has shown promising results, along with eating meals several times a day. I mean 4 lbs in 2 wks! I just ordered my second container. I donât make it twice a day and I havenât been drinking it everyday, otherwise I would be purchasing every week. Anywayâ¦.bottom line, it works!!Previous post from August 2,2024:Okay, so I know everyone looks to the reviews to see how it worked or works for people. (I know I did!) Most of the reviews speak of how it tastes, and not if it’s effective. Well, I have only used it for two days. I know it is too soon to see results. However, I have been mixing it with Almond Milk, only two scoops to 8oz. of milk, which I believe is 400 calories. It tastes great, but after the second dose, my stomach began to feel weird. By the 4th dose…OMG, my stomach was going to work, bubbling, and twisting and turning!!! Lol! I haven’t had any today, and there wasn’t a massacre in the toilet!! LMAO!! I assume my body needs to adjust to the supplement. So, update coming in a few weeks.

This product is a special case. If you are thin and you don’t want to endanger your heath with stimulants that other similar supplements have, then it’s the only way to go! I gave it four stars and not five for two reasons. Firstly for the taste which is too artificial for me. (Are you call that vanilla?). Secondly I agree to other reviews that indeed you must use great amounts of this stuff to work but as I said before is the only naturally and clean way to go.
