Premier Protein - High Protein Ready To Drink Shakes, 18-11oz shakes Review

(More customer reviews)
I drink one of these after coming home from the gym. They're filling and quite satisfying and I don't feel the need to eat anything else. They're best ice cold although the instructions say not to freeze them, so I stick a cold one from the fridge in to the freezer for just a few minutes as soon as I get home, and by the time I've changed out of my sweaty work-out clothes, it's really ice cold without actually being frozen.
160 calories - 30 from fat; total fat 3 grams; 5 grams carbs; 1 gram sugar; 3 grams fiber; 30 grams protein; 330 mg sodium; 680 mg potassium; no high fructose corn syrup. However, FYI, this does contain some calcium caseinate just in case you are not in favor of using calcium caseinate as a protein source.
I buy the chocolate flavor which is quite yummy, not artificial tasting and tastes like thick, chocolate milk - especially when ice cold as mentioned above. I've never tried any other flavors except the chocolate.
This price and shipping seem very expensive, but I buy them at one of the membership big-box warehouse type places (that begins with the letter "C") for a much better and more reasonable price.

Herbalife Formula 1 Nutritional Shake Mix Cafe Latte (1LB 11.6oz/783g) Review

I used to have a SlimFast shake for lunch until a friend recommended that I try Herbalife shakes instead. I wanted to trim a few pounds on a recent vacation to Hawaii so I tried the shake for the first time. This product worked great and I lost 5 pounds in 1 week. The shake itself is highly nutritious and I continue to have a shake for lunch everyday.

ZOIC Nutrition Drink, Belgian Chocolate (Pack of 24) Review

Here is a comparative of the Nutrition Facts showing ZOIC first on the left and Slim Fast Low Carb second on the right:
Calories: 110 - 190
Calories from Fat: 10 - 80
Saturated Fat: 0.5g - 1.5g
Trans Fat: 0g - 0g
Cholesterol: 5mg - 15mg
Sodium: 230mg - 260mg
Potassium: 230mg - 550mg
Total Carbohydrate: 5g - 6g
Dietary Fiber: 3g - 4g
Sugars: 1g - 1g
"Net Carbs:" 2g - 2g
Protein: 21g - 20g
The vitamins/minerals are somewhat similar in these two drinks and can be found on the Nutrition Facts on the cans. The biggest difference is that Slim Fast Low Carb has about 73% more calories and 70 more Fat calories per drink.
The taste, which I was concerned about when I order my first case of 24 drinks, is similar with the main difference that the Slim Fast Low Carb has a smoother, creamier texture. I experimented with adding about 80 calories of cream to a ZOIC drink and it definitely acquired a smoother, creamier texture. The overall taste of both drinks, in my opinion, is a good taste; but not a great taste. I would give these products a 4.5 rating if I could.
The Slim Fast Low Carb drink with its extra 70 more calories from Fat seems to satisfy my hunger perhaps 30 minutes longer than the ZOIC drink (without any cream added). ZOIC's package states "meal complement & snack replacement" not a meal replacement; in other words, it seems logical that one would add a small portion of other healthful food to make it a meal.
Both drinks refrain from adding any sugar or sugar alcohols (make sure you are comparing Slim Fast "Low Carb" and not other Slim Fast drinks which do have sugar added). Both drinks are free from Trans Fat.
I like to use both drinks to give me variety in taste and calories. The ZOIC drink at only 110 calories is a good choice when I want less calories and less fat calories; perhaps, when a planned meal time has to be pushed back in time by a couple of hours. If I need something to skip a meal, then I will usually choose Slim Fast Low Carb.
Both of these "Low Carb" drinks are good to have on hand in the refrigerator, so you can choose 110 or 190 calories versus some other super-sized 500 plus calorie item that may be in the refrigerator too.

Herbalife Formula 1 Nutritional Shake Mix Review

I have been on the Herbalife plan since July. I have dropped alot of weight and I feel amazing. I have been on MANY different diets throughout the years and so has my husband, and we both agree that this one makes us feel the best.
I was really nervous to try this shake mix. I had no idea what it would taste like, and I am not a fan of Diet shakes at all. I was amazed at how many recipes can be used with this shake mix. Vanilla is so versitile, and this one if my favorite of all of the Herbalife shake mixes because you can make any kind of shake with it. My favorite is white recess, YUMMMM!
What shocked me the most about this was the fact that my picky kids even love it as well. If you drink it plain with skim milk it will taste like crap, in my opinion, and you WILL have the diet shake flavor, but when you add things like fruits, sugar free pudding mixes, powdered peanut butter, spices, sugar free davinci's syrups, flavored yogurts, etc...you can create really healthy & AWESOME tasting shakes.
Some might be skeptical wondering if drinking the shakes will be enough to keep you satisfied. Will you be hungry and therefore binge during the day? I felt like I was hungry the first couple of days because I was use to eating so much more and gorging myself at almost every meal. I use the protein powder from Herbalife and add one scoop to my shake mix because I require more protein.
I found that the free fruits & veggies throughout the day along with the protein snacks really help alot as well. My favorite Herbalife products to use with this shake mix is Herbalifes Total Control which gives me lots of energy and the Celluloss which got rid of my excess fluids.I want to make it clear that I do not sell Herbalife, this is an honest review from someone who is using the products. THEY WORK!
