Happy for no Spirulina! Taste is A+. Would like to know more from the manufzcturer
I'll talk a bit about the probiotic strain in this supplement, but first, thus stuff tastes incredible. I'm going thru a bottle every 5-6 days. I feel like I actually get nutrition when mixing plain pea protein and rice protein together with this. Adding a Banana doesn't add all give me the feeling of benefit this does, and this has not stimulants. For some reason folks put Spirulina in their mixtures, and it messes me up, bad. Full out adrenal fatigue like symptoms, anxiety etc. I don't need to be stimulated unless I choose, and I'd choose something very healthy like Cordyceps that has a very natural and non jittery type of energy, and would never try to make an antioxidant drink an energy drink. Anyway, glad there are no stinulants. The probiotic in this formula reaches the gut in tact. Most pills have a 1-3% survival rate. With this product, it would nearly be like taking 600 billion probiotics in pill form. At worst, maybe 400 billion cfu worth. Look on the label in the Amazon images for the name of the probiotic strain to research health benefits. The company - More info needed for the product: There is no ORAC test data, and no suggestion as to how many fruits and veggies worth of ORAC one serving of this supplement would equal. I spoke with the company, and they said they do not want the product to substitute fruits and vegetables (which sounds honest). Thing is, I need to know what I'm taking in, and I need data. They said the ORAC was around that of Cacao, but I did not ask and have clarified whether that were per serving, or by weight. If 1 serving of this (14g) is only equal to one serving (3g) of Cacao, then it is not very substantial at all, and even a waste, but for now I do not know the facts because the company does not provide anything on their site. I emailed this company the day I ordered the product, which was Thursday, 2 weeks ago. I got no reply. I emailed on Monday of the next week, and then called to quicken things up. Said the man who knew about the product was at lung and they'd email me in an hour. No email. I called the next day and was sent to voice-mail. I called later that day and was sent to voicemail. I gave up and called Wednesday and was finally routed to the guy that knows about the product. That was extremely frustrating. I won't knock a star down if the product is as healthy as Cacao is (by weight and not average suggested servings), but there should be so much more information on the label than simply the claim of ingredients. There should be data. ORAC is part of the basics these days. I'll keep my eye on this product as they update the information. Thus far, customer support is nearly impossible to reach. Message me if you need their number. It isn't in their contact area. You may just never get an email back, and if you have a product sitting on the counter like I did, waiting to know it's values before deciding to consume or return, you may not have a very good experience with the Manufacturer. I hope it does not reflect identical quality of the product, but it tastes incredible. If I find something wrong (low nutrition value etc) I'll definitely post back.
