Comment on Nature Made Potassium Gluconate Supplement, 550 mg, 100-Count Tablets (Pack of 3) by yukyu

Review by yukyu for Nature Made Potassium Gluconate Supplement, 550 mg, 100-Count Tablets (Pack of 3) Rating: Ok, people, this is NOT worthit buying. One caplet has like 3% daily value. I rather recommand to buy some bananas if you're serious about potassium. Banana contains like 360mg potassium per 100g and other valuable nutritions. Think wisely. 99mg per caplet. 100 times 99 is 9900 and a banana, which weighs about 150-200g, contains over 500mg. Simple math; if you want to take 10000mg, you need less than 20 bananas. Which is cheaper and nutritious?

Review by S. Sheridan for Morningstar Minerals Energy Boost 70 Mineral Supplement , 32 oz (946 ml)
Rating:
My grandmother has been seeing a nutritionist for over 20 years and was told to start taking this as a good mineral supplement. She bought me several bottles and I figured why not.

It’s very easy to take and practically tasteless. I think it tastes like water, but my boyfriend thinks more like rusty water (I think because it looks that way). If you add it to juice you’ll never know it’s there, but I just down a shot. It made me feel good to think I was at least trying to get my minerals

I’d keep taking it, but it’s been out of stock on Amazon for a while. It sure beats pills.

Review by V. Vanderbent for Morningstar Minerals Energy Boost 70 Mineral Supplement , 32 oz (946 ml) Rating: Have been using this for over a year (now on subscription from Amazon). The manufacturer says we get too few minerals from our fresh foods, and I tend to believe them. At first I got a lot of extra energy from taking the recommended dosage. When I stopped for a month and a half because it was out of stock, I noticed my energy level going back down so it must be making a difference, but it's not like a caffeine kind of effect at all if you know what I mean. It's very gradual, yet very sustaining. In flu season I sometimes take up to 2oz (still within the recommended dosage range) and I can't begin to tell how quickly flu symptoms disappear. Not that this product has anything directly to do with it I'm sure, but it does appear to help my body's immune system so it's better able to fight hostile agents. Highly recommended.

It is great and you will feel it going to work immediately. It is a must have for even the healthiest person, because our food today is not as healthy as it should be.

Review by Gratitude for Morningstar Minerals Energy Boost 70 Mineral Supplement , 32 oz (946 ml) Rating: I had always been told I've been deficient in minerals but figured it was ONE more supplement that I had to buy or take. I know that those who crave salt or salty foods really are deficient in minerals (provided that you aren't dehydrated and your electrolytes aren't out of balance) and after an episode of wanting to load hoards of salt on my food one day, I buckled down and bought it. After a few days of being on it, I no longer crave salty foods and the funny thing is that even the 'normal' amount of Celtic Sea Salt that I'd add to my foods is TOO salty now. My older son also told me the organic chips we usually eat 'had a lot of salt on it today' (it's packaged so I don't add any to it).

I called the company and inquired about giving it to children and was told that it's perfectly safe to, just to give a lower dosage for kids.
It was suggested that I start out my children at 1/2 oz each daily and myself 1 oz daily. Since my kids are young, decided to start them out with 1/4 oz daily and myself 1 oz. (Update: They are now up to 1/2 oz and I am up to 1oz two times per day. I take it / give it to them with E3Live and WE LOVE IT!!!)

I think the most immediate benefit that I've noticed is that it gives you a surge of SUSTAINED energy. The customer service person told me that if you take it following some Tylenol due to a headache, or with some other supplement, you'll feel it work a lot faster with a dose of the Energy Boost. If you are used to drinking coffee or some artificial energy pill or even diet pills, you may not notice the difference in energy since your body gets such a shock compared foods in it's natural state or say coffee or tea that's high in caffeine but for those that don't consume those and similiar things like that, at least for me, since I take it after a shot of e3Live, it get a SURGE of energy and am in a GREAT mood!!! It's like my happy / energy arsenal!!! I LOVE this!

As far as the taste goes, it tastes like a minerally - metallic sort of water water so you can take it straight, with juice, water, etc. It's really mild and when mixed with something else, you can't tell. I just don't know if it can be stable in warm or hot liquids / foods.

I love the fact that it's in liquid form so that I can add it to smoothies, drink it straight etc, it's not ONE more PILL I have to take....

Comment on EAS Myoplex Original Meal Replacement Powder, Vanilla Cream 20 Packets by W. Duncan Shepard

Review by W. Duncan Shepard for EAS Myoplex Original Meal Replacement Powder, Vanilla Cream 20 Packets Rating: This protein is by far the best out there. I have used it in different capacities and has never failed to impress me. Currently, my lifting routine is geared towards trimming and weight loss. I finish lifting around 6:00pm and drink this mixed with non-fat milk within 20 minutes as a meal replacement. Not only does this give me more than enough protein for the strained muscles (~55-60g) but it keeps me full until I hit the bed around 11pm.

Pros:
-The tastiest stuff out there. Taste is key, if you don't enjoy your protein you won't take it
-Protein content is high
-Perfect blend of ingredients for post-workout shake

Cons:
-Tends to clump if you don't use a blender and milk
-One of the more expensive products out there

Review by L. Newman for Insulow Dietary Supplement, Capsules, 180-Count Bottle Rating: I started taking Insulow after a friend recommended it. I have had minor problems with regulating my blood sugar levels for a while - a sudden need for sugar, a rush when I eat the food, then a drop back to low energy after the sugar spike has worn off. I eat a lot of carbohydrates (I love pasta, rice, potatoes etc etc) and noticed that I felt drowsy after eating meals that contain them. Now I take 2 Insulow capsules with my meals and so far I haven't had the low-energy drowsy effect at all. I guess this product works by breaking down the carbohydrates in an effective way. Sometimes it actually seems to give me an energy boost which is always good for motivating me to go to the gym and get rid of some of that post-Christmas body weight!!

Review by kc for EAS Myoplex Original Meal Replacement Powder, Vanilla Cream 20 Packets Rating: I've tried a number of protein supplements. These shakes are the best I've found.

Flavor is good

Easy to make

Good amount of protein per shake

And unlike most bars, they are not loaded with sugar.

These are a good 1-2x/day shake for strength building programs.
