Have just seen this on Ben Coombers page and wanted to share it as I think this is the best argument I have seen yet regarding how bad herbalife and juice plus are and how uneducated in nutrition distributors can be. I recommend you all to read and share to everyone you know. Gamma Cole Hi James for weight loss and muscle build you would use the shakes for 16 weeks starting with 2 a day for 8 weeks then 1 a day for a further 8 weeks. You would then have to follow the eating and exercise plan given to you for the 16 week duration. The shakes are 32.50 a month for 4 months James Walker So what ingredients does it contain that will promote fat loss and muscle growth?,is it 2 shakes and one meal a day? Gamma Cole The program is designed so that from 0-8 weeks you have 2 juice plus shakes a day. Plus snacks fruits And then a healthy meal. 0-8 weeks is the main fat burning stage. from 9-16 weeks you go down to 1 shake a day and 2 healthy meals this is where the weight loss becomes steady and gradual.Its 100% natural. No gluten. No gelatine. No nasty chemicals. Just the nutrients of 17 fruit n veg that boost weight loss and the exercise plan with the shakes builds the muscle. James Walker so is it a general nutrition plan or is it tailored to me? Gamma Cole Its tailored to what you want to get from the plan James Walker cool,so it doesnt matter what I weigh now or my current activity levels, I just stick to the 2 shakes and one meal? Also my dad is overweight and is a type 2 diabetic can he use it to, lose weight?, his doctor says he has to. Gamma Cole Definitely the plan is perfect for type 2 due to its focus on low sugar content. No your weight does not matter if you stick to the plan you will lose the weight and if you want the muscle too and stick with the exercise plan the muscle will build as you lose the weight James Walker ok just been looking at the ingredients list and hoping you could clear up a few things 1- you say its low sugar but it contains 23g of sugar with 4-5 different sources of sugar, 46g sugar daily nearly 2 cans of coke 2 - there is only 20g of protein each serving coming from a source with a poor amino acid profile 3 -you said there are no chemicals in it, can you tell me what sodium ascorbate, sodium polyphosphate, tri-calcium phosphate, sunflower lecithin and mono- and diglycerides are and what effect they will have on my body 4 - why are there 3 types of oil in it? - rapeseed oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil Gamma Cole Hi James sorry its taken me a while to respond iv been having issues with sending messages the amount of ingredients listed are in the whole pouch of the shakes and each pouch contains 30 servings The sugars r natural sugars from the fruits as fruit is naturally sweet.... The protein is low as we reccomend protein in food rather than the shakes 3 them chemicals are to stop clumping in the powder and r not chemicals they are chemical compounds and 4 its good oils James Walker I understand that fructose is the sugar from fruit but its second on the ingredients list meaning its been added as a separate ingredient, its not coming from the fruit in the shake its been refined from fruit then added to the mix. Not only is the protein low its from a poor source, the arrangement of the amino acid profile means it will not be digested properly and so not fully absorbed, so if you eat 20g you will only digest a small amount of that. Chemical compounds dont sound to me like they are from fruits and veg Rapeseed, sunflower and soybean are not good oils - coconut and olive are good oils This coupled with the fact that you recommended a diabetic man to drink 2 sugary drinks and one meal a day really suggest to me that you should not be selling this product. Fact is people will lose weight do to a massive calorie deficit, the weight they lose will be largely water at first due to lack of carbohydrates in the diet (carbs hold water) then a rapid catabolic state where the body will breakdown lean muscle tissue as it cannot produce protein this will result in a slowing of the metabolism a knock on effect of the body releasing stress hormones to help promote fat storage (body reacts as if going into a famine). Females will reduce estrogen to promote fat stores around reproductive organs. When people go back top eating normally they will gain more weight due to metabolic damage and worse of than when they started. You could eat a twix for breakfast and a crunchie for lunch and still lose weight but it wouldnt be healthy, would it?, but if I called it a juice Twix and a Herbal Crunch maybe that would sell.
