Ka’Chava Whole Body Meal Shake Vanilla 2 lb – Vegan Protein Powder with 85+ Superfoods & Greens – Plant-Based Meal Replacement with Probiotics & Digestive Enzymes – Gluten & Dairy Free (15 Servings)

Today is the first day trying Ka’chava. I purchased the vanilla. I skip lunch a lot. I have dangerously low iron (anemia.) Not a good combo for chasing a toddler around all day. I was looking for something to help bridge my nutritional gap for days when I don’t eat until 6pm, one meal a day. Why am I so tired all the time? Well…. I made a half serving in my little portable blendjet thingy. That’s all that fit. It’s a big ol scoop. 2 scoops is a serving. I was too tired to get the big blender out and make a full serving. I mixed it with full fat coconut milk and a little water so the weak a$$ blender could mix the shake. On first sip it was very forward tasting vanilla. Like drinking vanilla cake batter. Not artificial tasting not overly sweet. Just good. I’m not a big sweets person. So if you love super sweet things this may not be your flavor profile. The texture was smooth I didn’t notice any chalky texture. The little blender left some dry pockets of powder but by the time I got to those I didn’t care, I sucked the first one down FAST. I was practically licking the glass out to get every expensive drop. I immediately made a second half serving and sucked that down. I’m sitting here afterwards feeling completely satisfied. Before I drank them I was starving! Like weak and shaky starving. (Why do I do that to myself ugh) my 3 year old had a couple ounces with me even he loved it. Being that it’s whole food vitamins it should be fine for him in small quantities? Right? Well this little kid eats like a picky toddler, sometimes he diet reflects in naughty toddler behaviors. After he drank 2-3 ozs he sat down and calmly put a puzzle together which by this time of day he would be throwing pieces around the house crashing his toy trucks into the walls. How am I feeling? Focused full happy. My body felt immediately tingling like it does when I drink green juices. I feel elevated. Is it expensive? Yes. But now I understand why. Also some of these bad reviews on here could it be that they ordered on Amazon from a reseller? Because they are on here, marking it up, reselling from who knows where and how it was stored. Just a thought, because I don’t know how anyone can give this anything less than 5 stars! Also I’ll try to remember to update my review and see if it helps with my nutritional deficiencies Editing to add to 1/18/24 My 20 year old daughter tried it. She said it tasted and smelled like paper. She did not like it by itself, I dumped her glass in the blender, added strawberries and a banana. She drank it all and asked for a second glass. This girl is sadly despite a healthy upbringing is a victim of the Standard American Diet. I ordered her a bag now too. She said she wants to get back to the gym now, she’s feeling healthier after a couple days substituting lunch with a shake. She also said she’s sleeping better now too. Good stuff!

I know this product is pretty high in sugar but I can say I really like the taste and have had it in my morning matcha smoothie for almost a year and I can tell the difference in my energy, no mid day crash and it’s great for hair and nails.

This is delicious and nutritious. I am dealing with an esophageal problem where I can’t eat solid food. This has been a lifesaver. I blend it with ice and almond milk. I’ve tried several flavors at this point and I’ve enjoyed them all.

I need to get more protein in my diet so decided to give this a try as a friend recommended it. I will start with the positives. It mixed well in shakes as well as other food items such as overnight oats. It is full of vitamins and protein so fulfilled my need for that and can actually as a good meal replacement choice. The negatives are that it has a bit of a chalky texture in shakes. The taste of the vanilla is not really vanilla at all, though it isn't unpleasant, it is not what I expected especially for the price.

I have tried all of them. I mean, ALL of them. I have wasted time and money. I was hesitant to go for the most expensive one ever made, because duh, the economy. But….This is the best tasting vanilla, non gritty all in one, clean ingredient, gluten free shake you can get. It mixes very well in cold milk and almond milk with a frothing wand. No grit, no chalkiness. It is like a thin vanilla milkshake, and I prefer it.

I like everything about this product. Like that I’m getting a nutritious meal substitute that tastes good and has so much protein. I’m 74 and really don’t like meat and was finding myself tired and lacking energy. I started using this product a few months back and fairly quickly started feeling better and had more energy. Since I’m not a Dr it could be all a coincidence but if so, I hope it continues! I like that it’s so easy and fast to mix. I take it on vacation with me along with my immersion blender and a cup - perfect! I saw one review that gave it a one star and said that some of the ingredients were controversial and very dangerous, yet she didn’t say what they were. Also said the chocolate was thick and tasted awful. I haven’t tried the chocolate but that’s not true of the vanilla. This past summer I cut up fresh peaches and froze them and then blended them in with the vanilla. It was beyond delicious. I imagine most fruits would be good but I like it plain just blended with ice and water too. It is a bit pricey but if you compare it to the cost of a meal, it is very comparable. In fact much cheaper than eating out, especially fast/junk food. And so much better for you! I recommend this product.

Listing was for multiple satins for each serving size and I received a multi serving bag. When I pulled the pool tab for the resealable bag, it immediately broke off at the start and so I was unable to open the bag properly so I use scissors and the zipper mechanism that they make on these bags is not a traditional type where the zipper is attached to the front in order for me to access the powder. So the bag is not resealable, which is inconvenient, but then add to that the protein was incredibly unpalatable. Does not mix well in smoothies, very grainy and tastes awful. I purchased this premium clean protein for my daughter going through very debilitating health issues and needs to increase her nutritional intake and she loves smoothies. She had to plug her nose to drink as much as possible which is not ideal for someone with low BMI who really needs to consume calories and protein for healing.

This is a great protein source, especially if you find it difficult to get enough in. I love that it is dairy free, so lactose intolerant friendly. There is an interesting taste to it at first and a slight after taste, but once you get used to it, it’s not a problem. No problem digesting. And it blends smoothly with frozen fruit and juice.
