(More customer reviews)I started taking this product when I was pregnant and extremely health conscious. It is the best meal replacement out there, and from the very beginning I could feel the difference in my health. Of course, the taste is far from delicious, but after my initial reaction (gag) I now like it, even crave it in the mornings. (I had to make myself like V8 to, and this is healthier.) The price is a little steep at $55, but it is much better on Amazon then if you bought it form the store ($70+ tax) and it is worth every penny of it. It is full of vitamins, healthy grains and vegan protein. It will fill you up (unlike other green drinks) so you eat less. While it does not claim to be a weight loss product, it actually helped me lose 20 pounds by helping me stop my cravings. Try it, you will not regret it!

Clif Builder's Bar, Protein Bar, 2.4-Ounce Bars Review

(More customer reviews)Plain and simple, these Builder's Bars are one of the best tasting protein bars you can get. They are crispy and chewy at the same time and they aren't super sweet like a candy bar. And at 2.4 ounces a piece they are large enough and filling enough to be a meal replacement.
And the one thing that I really like is that when I read the ingredients, I actually know what the stuff is! Nothing weird or unnatural, just real ingredients!
Out of the four flavors available (Chocolate Mint, Peanut Butter, Chocolate, Cookies `n Cream) I prefer the Chocolate Mint and Peanut Butter, mainly because they taste even less like a protein bar. I'm not saying the plain Chocolate and Cookies 'n Cream are bad tasting, just that I prefer the taste of the Chocolate Mint and Peanut Butter ones (they are all really tasty).
These are just awesome, 100% natural, high protein, real ingredients, and they taste great! I just love them!
A bit of product info:
Vanilla Almond: 39% organic ingredients
Chocolate Mint: 32% organic ingredients
Chocolate: 33% organic ingredients
Cookies `n Cream: 35% organic ingredients
Peanut Butter: 35% organic ingredients
Side note:
Do not buy these expired (like on eBay or in-store)! Since these bars do not contain any preservatives they can loose their freshness and vitamin potency quickly and can develop a simple bread mold. It is recommended that they be eaten within a month of their sell by date (they are guaranteed to be fresh one month passed the sell by date printed on the wrapper).
EDIT: I just bought myself a couple of boxes of the of the new Vanilla Almond flavor and oh my they are mighty tasty. Sometimes you just don't want a chocolate protein bar and these fit the bill perfectly! And just like the other Builder Bars they are not super sweet, just a perfect balance. That and they contain more organic ingredients then the other Builder Bars (39%).
If chocolate is not your pleasure try the Vanilla Almond bars, you will not be disappointed!

Product Description:
If you want to get more protein in your diet, but you don't want to sacrifice the benefits of all-natural ingredients or great taste, then the Clif Builder's Bar is the perfect choice for you. With 20 grams of 100% natural protein from soy and nuts, and with no trans fats or hydrogenated oils, this dipped double-decker bar is delicious and nutritious. When it's chocolate and protein you need, this is the bar you want.
Protein: The Immune System Booster
Nobody likes to have their training derailed because of a cold, flu, or fatigue. Because protein is essential for producing red blood cells and antibodies that resist infection, Clif Builder's Bars can help you get the amount of protein you need to stay in the game.

Natural Protein? Naturally!
Protein comes from both plants and animals, but not all protein is created equally. The protein found in Clif Builder's Bars is free of antibiotics, hormones and genetic modifications, giving you a valuable investment in your total body health.
So while an extra lean top sirloin steak or an organic chicken breast are great sources of protein, it's not always convenient to throw those in your briefcase or gym bag. That's why it's helpful to have a Clif Builder's Bar on hand as a portable source of great-tasting natural protein that has ingredients you know and trust.
Make Protein Work Harder For You
Staying healthy boils down to two simple ingredients: regular exercise and proper nutrition. Being active and eating healthy foods are no-brainers, but all too often people overlook the importance of getting enough protein in their diets. Virtually every part of your body needs protein to stay healthy, and when you work out, you especially need protein because your body is breaking down and repairing tissue.
The best time to grab a Clif Builder's Bar is within 30 minutes of completing a workout or competition--the protein helps your muscles recover quickly and gets you ready for the next training session. More protein also helps your body repair cuts, wounds, strains, stress fractures, broken bones, and other problems, which shortens the time you'll be on the sideline.
Build Your Brain with Clif Builder's
Have a big meeting coming up? Need to write a report? Grab a Clif Builder's Bar and get the brain boost you need to make it through. The protein in the bar helps keep your brain working properly. Brain cells talk to each other via messengers that are made up of amino acids, the building blocks of protein. Therefore, what you eat affects which neurons will be firing, and that in turn affects whether you'll feel energized or sluggish. Try other flavors

Chocolate Mint
Vanilla Almond

(More customer reviews)I bought this product under the assumption that Gluten Free means free of any gluten ingredient in processing.Well---they do test the product and according to FDA guidelines, it is less than 20ppm.But that does not mean it is safe for those with Celiac Disease, as we cannot tolerate ANY gluten or ingredient derived from a gluten source.Nutribiotic is using barley enzymes in their rice protein production, clarifying that there is no barley protein left over in the final product.I beg to differ---my husband and I have been taking this product every day to improve our health and have been feeling horrible.I have no respect for companies that lie to improve their bottom line.And a Government agency has no right to declare that just a LITTLE poison every day is safe for a Celiac!

Genisoy Soy Protein Shake, Chocolate Protein Shake, 22.2-Ounce Canisters (Pack of 2) Review

(More customer reviews)I bought this on something of a whim - I like some of Genisoy's other products - and was worried that it would be terrible.But it really isn't bad!
The instructions read: For best results, add 1 scoop of powder to 8 oz. of protein fortified nonfat milk and mix in an electric blender, or in a shaker.Can also be mixed with water or other beverage of choice.
I didn't want the extra added calories of the milk - plus I'm lactose intolerant, so I went ahead and mixed it with water, worried it would be bland. It was pretty tasty.The reason they say to put in a blender or shake is because it's difficult to mix - it gets very thick.
Kosher status isn't clear here on amazon, but it's got a circle-K hechshar, if this is relevant for you.
And this particular product has many more vitamins and mineratals than the Genisoy Ultra XT product.
I'm going to go out and get the vanilla, too.Definitely recommended!
