Almased - Soya, Yogurt and Honey Meal Replacement for Weight Control, 500 g, Powder

Didn't take me too long to get used to Almased - if you flavour it right, it is absolutely fine. I am on Day 28 having lost 5.8 kg (13 lbs) since 1st January and my goal is to lose 3 stone in total. Since Day 1 I have been having 2 shakes a day made with water (a shake for breakfast and a shake for dinner and a "normal food" healthy lunch around 500-600 calories) as suggested in the Reduction Phase which you can keep doing until you've reached your goal weight. Once I added a teaspoon of UNSWEETENED COCOA POWDER as suggested (I recommend 1 heaped teaspoon of Green and Black's Organic Cocoa from Tesco, Waitrose or any standard supermarket) as suggested, it tastes like a chocolate milkshake and is so much more palatable. I make all my shakes with water, not milk. The product has skimmed milk powder in it already and once you shake and blend it and pour it, it thickens up and to me tastes fine. I did try it with almond milk on the first day but just could not drink it. It was thick and gloopy so I always make mine with water. As soon as I start to drink the shake, I feel energised and it's as if I have had a shot of caffeine but there is no caffeine in this product. Must be the vitamins. I am having a shake at breakfast, veg soup and high protein salad and 1 ryvita for lunch or stir fry with tofu or chicken and noodles etc and shake for dinner. This is the most effective product I have tried in years. I am really thrilled and I feel great and can notice that I have toned up already as the protein content is high. I am also walking at least 5,000 steps a day and doing 40 mins power yoga a day. Fantastic product. If you are disciplined and cut out all the bad stuff, you will see results. And I don't feel hungry on it either.

If you're desperate to lose weight quickly and are focused and disciplined I would recommend Almased. I've been on this regime for 4 days now and I've dropped 5lbs. I will stick with it as I need to lose another 7lb in time for a holiday in 3 weeks. I'm fortunate enough to LOVE the taste, I know a lot of people say they hate the taste, I find it a bit boring though so I've added peanut butter powder 1 tsp and Pure C8 MCT oil 1 tsp. Sometimes 6 raspberries or Sweet Freedom Choc Shot liquid chocolate (13 cals per1 tsp) Available in super markets. The shakes keep hunger at bay and the motivation comes from seeing the weight loss. I look forward to some vegetable soup at the end of the day. I'm about to have my first chew on food tonight, which I'm also looking forward to. My digestive system appears to love this regime... No heartburn, constipation or dreaded wind! I am sleeping MUCH better, awake feeling refreshed. I have loads more energy and have exercised for half an hour each morning. The only negative I will point out is that each 500g tub only last 2.5 days so it can work out expensive. I've actually used the subscribe and save option as I plan on continued use for maintainence purposes. This is the first time I've used a meal replacement shake and I'm very impressed with the results.

The taste of this is bland and powdery with not much flavour. Still I've been on it for several weeks now, twice a day but with not much to show for it I'm sorry to say. I thought replacement meals were the answer for initial weight loss, with the guesswork of calorie counting gone, but it just hasn't worked for me. On a positive note, it was a great break from cooking for someone who makes all meals fresh!

It is obviously hard for a non-professional to write an objective review, so here comes my personal view of it. I bought the product on the recommendation of my sister, who lives in Germany, We were talking about a product which is good for you, helps you to lose just a few pounds easily and which to us importantly is not too sweet. She buys Almased at a health store and it can cost her around 16 Euros. She said she does not feel hungry with it and loses the few pounds to feel good in a special dress for a special occasion. I bought it on Amazon, as it's not available in UK shops and paid over £30.00 for it. I tried it first to replace breakfast and it tasted ok, not sweet and I felt ok on it. I was quite encouraged and did not feel like overeating at the next meal either. However, a few days later I replaced 2 meals with it (breakfast and lunch), but I had added some honey and a banana and also drank decaffeinated teas and water, however, I really felt lacking in energy by mid afternoon and realised I could no way continue to use Almased for even 1 whole day, let alone for several days., i just felt too rough. It could be to do with my age (I am over 60) and maybe I was too active, maybe if I had rested more it might have been ok. So in summing up I personally would use it to replace 1 meal per day, but not more than that, or maybe if I was ill and resting in bed with no appetite, then it might be useful. I would not buy it again, certainly not at the UK price.

I had read a lot of negative reviews about this product but I chose because of the protein content. In my honest opinion it really does work. I did 2 shakes a day, morning and lunch then had a regular meal in the evening. It helps you maintain calorie deficit whilst not having to count everything, which for me was a plus as I simply don't have the time. I lost a stone in weight in about 2 months, going at a steady pace and with regular exercise. I suppose you will get that with any calorie deficit plan but I liked that its quick and simple. I went for the unflavoured version and added frozen berried into the blender for a hint of taste. It was yum. Overall I would recommend this product. Like anything it isn't a magick wand and you have to eat a balanced diet and exercise. I do also suppose that it is a little expensive for the amount you get but I would say its a high quality product.

I litrally hate the thought of even taking this **** again. i know what your thinking its gonna help me loose weight thouhg must have some benifits and just stick it out. NO dont waste your money on it. sure it has protien ect in it but whats the point just eat real healthy food and exersise. If your over weight then this will help you. to be honest i think its really good and throughout the day your body will burn your stored fat becuase the suplement prevents your body from taking energy from the muscles. thats really good but i dont think for people who are healthy weight this thing will make your life a misery becuase it tastes awful no matter what you add to it.

I read a lot of rubbish about this before trying it and listened to all the people who moan about the taste so here is my verdict. So far 10kg lost over 6 weeks. So as part of a calorie-controlled diet, it works like a charm. I have a shake for breakfast a shake for lunch and a veggie or vegan stir fry or 600 calories of veggies for dinner. Its probably not their plan but this as a chef and a qualified nutritionist works for me. Weight loss is steady and healthy there is never a quick fix for weight loss I am 60 years old so trust me when I say I have tried everything in those years at various times when I need to lose weight. In comparison to the big shake based diets to me, the nutritional profile is better, it's not loaded with synthetic flavours and sweeteners. I hear people moan about the taste but part of eating healthy and losing weight is about retraining your mind and taste buds that a double chocolate peanut butter flavour is not the one you need. So yes it natural but not unpleasant and its a great base, if you want or can afford the calories to pimp up then fine but it works as it comes. In terms of satiating hunger again I presume as it partially fermented protein base it does a good job i don't feel hungry or running to the next shake early which you can get with the big fake shakes. I mix it to my own formula that works for me. Which is the standard amount plus 100 ml of homemade Kefir as I am a big proponent of probiotics to help gut health. I then bring the mix up to 1ltr with water. The additional water helps with hydration and I spread it out over 10 minutes. So anyway very happy so far and if you want to lose weight remember no miracle, stone age, new age fad diet or book will make you lose weight faster than just simply reducing calories. Work on good nutrition and exercise. And I am not even selling you a book or video LOL

I have been following the Almased plan for 9 days including one day when I had guests for lunch so ate a three course lunch with wine (didn't want to be a party pooper). I have lost 4lb so far. I chose Almased over other meal replacement shakes because it has no artificial sweeteners and i really enjoy the taste. I mix it with 200 ml of Rude health coconut drink (106 extra calories) and sometimes add a few berries. Also nice with 50 grms of avocado in which case I omit the oil. I have felt minimal hunger pangs. I also have the veg soup. As I am hypo thyroid I have to remember to take my Levi thyroxine at least 4 hours before first shake but as I am never hungry till mid morning this is easy. Only con is the price - £20 for 10 servings is not sustainable. However the plan does tell you to gradually replace with healthy meals. I am also finding a calorie counting app useful. Personally I would recommend Almased unless you expect it to taste like a sweet fast food shake in which case try slimfast I guess.

El paquete llego puntual, pero estaba dañado. La tapa de un bote estaba abierta y la pelicula protectora estaba rota.El color del polvo estaba más oscuro de lo normal y el sabor era como si fuese caducado (fecha caducidad 09/09/2017).

...delivery time is a bit long but fully satisfied with the purchase!
