3 out of 5 stars Good tasting - some value - not worth the calories   October 12, 2008
J. Preston (San Juan Mountains)
This item is made in Boulder Colorado.

It might be a good choice for a quick carbohydrate pickup during a workout, but it is not something I would value as a healthy choice.

There are 200 calories per bottle, and most of the calories come from "organic" cane sugar. The simple carbohydrates give it a sweet taste, but, for me, cancel out the viatmins and minerals.

From the back label:

Calories from Fat 20

Total Fat 2.5 g
Sodium 125 mg
Potassium 370 mg
Total carbohydrate 29g
Dietary Fiber 3g
Sugars 22g (sheesh!)
Protein 15g
"Green Tea Polyphenols:" 100mg

You might as well go to a 1950's diner and order what you like from the menu.



4 out of 5 stars The Right Mix   October 10, 2008
Calico (Friendswood, Texas USA)
I tried the berry flavered mix 1 protein drink and was pleasantly surprized. The mixed berry flaver is quite good and the consistency is creamy somewhat like a milk shake. I drank it chilled and found it to be very refreshing with no after taste like some protein drinks I've tried.
And this is especially important, it did not upset my stomach. I've sampled quite a few of similar drinks that made a seriously negative impression on my digestive system the next day.



3 out of 5 stars Yummy, Intially Filling, Quick...But Contains Sugar!   September 27, 2008

I certainly enjoyed this "protein and antioxidant drink". It tasted like a combination of berries and bananas (even though there are no bananas in it!) and I very much enjoyed the taste. I like the combination of 29g carbohydrates and 15g protein, but wish it didn't contain cane sugar and cane juice. I am trying to lose weight, so all that sugar won't be helpful to me---it will make my blood sugar bounce all over the place!

This drink only contains 200 calories, so it's more of a quick snack than a meal. With all of the sugar, I was hungry an hour or so later, too. Adding a little more fat would help satiety, too---there are only 2.5g of fat from added extra light olive oil.

If you tolerate sugary processed drinks, this is one of the healthier and tastier ones. As for me, I'd rather get my nutrition elsewhere.

4 out of 5 stars Better Than The Mango   September 25, 2008
Jason W. Bellenger (Wyoming, Michigan, United States)
The closest product that I can think the Mix reminds me of is the Tropicana fruit smoothie drinks, although this one does not have as much flavor as the Tropicana smoothies. While I would not drink this on a regular basis it is a decent mix, full of nutrients and vitamins. Drink this is you want to get a good dose of protein and antioxidants. I like the Berry flavor over the Mango one.
