My boyfriend just ordered some and we're both super excited to try it out. I'm just curious if I start to drink it could it replace some of my vitamins? Do we absorb all the nutrients/minerals/prebiotics etc well?

Do any of you use it? What do you think??

No skip it and do the regular protein shake and vitamins.

Too many carbs.

Never heard of it. But when I google it ever option has the word scam in it so I would not give it a second thought.

Really? Thats odd because I just googled it and didn't find anything about scams. There was only one post on there with the word scam and it was saying it's NOT a scam.
My boyfriend also said he searched it and didn't find anything saying scam either.

It's a mulilevel marketing system (often known as an MLM or pyramid scheme). I'll stick to buying my protein in stores. Basically people sell it. You'll find Body by Vi Shakes are sold by distributors too. People use them to make money. The more people that they convince to invest, the more money they make. That's not to say that their product is bunk. It may be okay.....but as a bariatric patient, they are not made for us. Too high in sugars. Stay away. :)

When I typed in Shakeology the suggestion of Shakeology scam came up and there were lots of sites saying it was and lots of sites saying it wasnt (don't pay attention to the man behind the curtain). I assumed it was a pyramid. I think someone above who knows more confirmed that.
