User questions & answers

Question:	I want to ship this to my son in Fiji. How big is the bag? I need it to fit in a USPS large flat box
Answer:	I don't remember what the ingredients were. I just remember getting deathly ill after two days and returned the product.
Question:	What's expiration date
Answer:	No
Question:	What flavor has the best natural flavor? I am hearing that there are only a few that arent changed from a few years ago
Answer:	According to customer service, 800.830.1800, the "not for prolonged use" statement applies to both bottles. It simply means that sometimes your body may become accustomed to the herbs and they may not be as effective. She said for most herbal supplements, it may be best to take a break after 3 months before beginning use again. Lady also said that they have another product, "Critical Liver Support" that you can take every day for the rest of your life.
Question:	When is the expiration date
Answer:	Got an answer from their support team: The Liver Detox is the only cleanse that can be combined together with our other cleanses (except Kidney Detox) only if you have cleansed separately before with one of our other cleanses like a total body cleanse. If you do take them together you need to start them a week apart. This way if you are sensitive to something you will know which one is bothering you.

User questions & answers

Question:	I see few people have asked the same question: Does this have lactose? I'd like to add that on the back it says product contains milk, so
Answer:	I haven't experience that with my product. I'll double check. First time I heard about this worm and bug issue. ðŸ`€
Question:	I have this product but it is expired! should I use it or but the new one? it has been expired for 4 months
Answer:	As long as you're getting enough protein from various sources, supplementing with any whey protein isolate will help with overall muscle gains as well as soreness. For example: my husband is drinking one shake a day made with this product and he is building lean muscle quickly (like hes nearly ripped after 7 weeks, ridiculously fast!). Though he is a beast and his body type has a lot to do with the way he builds muscle. I however, am drinking a different brand whey protein isolate (because I cant stand the sucrose taste of Dymatize). I am building lean muscle as well, but I am a woman. My body is more susceptible to storing fat. At the end of the day, there are a ton of really good protein options out there, people should enjoy their supplementation which is why taste is so important.
Question:	How many servings in this container
Answer:	I've only had the choc peanut butter but i love it! Best tasting protein shake I've had honestly. Looking to get more now, thinking of trying the cookies and cream. I mix the choc peanut butter with milk for reference.
Question:	How does this differ to their Gold Standard 100% Whey? Pros and Cons?? Thanks
Answer:	Why are people ganging up on the OP asking the question? There is a reason that most retail companies selling on Amazon and why Amazon themselves have return policies. It's called customer satisfaction. If you aren't satisfied with a product, for whatever reason, and the return policy guarantees your satisfaction, then you have the right to return it. How many people order food in a restaurant, and it isn't to their liking, it was cooked wrong (like asking for a medium rare burger and getting well done), or just didn't enjoy it? They tell the server, and just about 100% of the time, they are offered another dish or a refund. Yet protein powders shouldn't come with the...um guarantee that the main page of this product promises? Plus, this is Amazon. They have about the most liberal return policy imaginable. Look, me personally? I am with Serge Stiles in that if a protein powder, meal replacement, or other edible supplement tastes really bad, I suck it up and eat/drink it anyway. So long as it's healthy. Ha! Anyone who thinks these newfangled supplements taste bad, I would love to put you in a time machine and have you drink some of the most vile and disgusting tasting protein powders you can imagine! They smelled bad, they tasted worse, oftentimes it was like drinking liquid chalk. And the protein bars back then?!! Yuck!!! YUCK!!! But I ate 'em anyway. Stuff by EAS, MetRex, GNC powders (possibly the worst!) were terrible. But I wanted the amino acids, good calories, macronutrient profiles, proteins, and other built-in supps. Hahaha you people today don't realize how amazingly good even the WORST TASTING protein powders are today, compared to the sewage-tasting crap I used to run to the stores and buy over and over again, because they were effective! :)

User questions & answers

Question:	May contain soy? Even the company doesn't know, eh
Answer:	No, take the evening pill at night and the day one in the morning. Make sure you stay close to home the first time you do this.
Question:	What is the source of natural flavor? Animal, plant? Any processing with alcohol
Answer:	Temporary. Nothing is permanent. Especially depending on your diet.
Question:	Does it contain SOY
Answer:	Yes. I'd say so. It's more of a colon cleanse than anything. I'd follow a 3 day protocol if you're looking for more of a full body detox though.

User questions & answers

Question:	Why does the scoop only give you around 22g and not 31g as the label states
Answer:	In the 'Directions' section of the label, one serving is described as a rounded scoop. That's the same as a heaping scoop. Flattening out the powder on the scoop provides less.
Question:	What is the difference between vainilla and naturally flavored vainilla? im looking for a mild flavor so i can add a fruit or a orange seltzer
Answer:	Although I don't know what's the exact ingredient difference, I can definitely say the following: vanilla tastes good, but the naturally flavored vanilla tasted horrible to me (especially a weird after taste). I purchased the naturally flavored vanilla, but had to return it because of this.
Question:	There are so many different flavors. What are your favorites and why
Answer:	Vanilla ice cream is disgusting - too sweet! Double rich chocolate is my absolute favorite. Not too sweet and goes well with everything.
Question:	Is there a reason why the 5 lb is so much thicker than the 2 lb? i tried the 2 lb, liked it, and order 5...outside of jug seems the same
Answer:	Get something like an "AMIR 500g/0.01g Digital Kitchen Scale". They're twelve bucks & quite accurate. I suspect the powder is compressed, making the scoops a bit heavy. Measuring by weight instead of volume should provide more consistent results.

Answer:	In short, Extreme Chocolate tastes and mixes better if you don't mind the extra 0.5g of fat and extra ingredients. I bought both flavors and tried exactly 1 scoop in 7 ounce of water each. I mixed both with a cup and spoon and mixing the Extreme Chocolate took only a few seconds with very little effort. The other took about 3 minutes to desolve as much as the other. I tried book side by side and the double chocolate tasted so watered down and a bit bitter that I need to force myself to drink it. Then, I drank the Extreme chocolate and the drink was smooth and sweet. FINALLY, a protien shake I could drink with pleasure. Hoped that helps you and others reading this!

User questions & answers

Question:	will a high intensity sport like basketball plus weight training, 5 days a week lessen the effectiveness of this product
Answer:	Any cardio is going to impact the way you gain weight. I was using this product and eating clean whole foods while going for a run on off days in between lift days. Within 3 -4 weeks I had went from 176lbs to 185lbs. The key is to lift heavy. Do big sets of small reps. You may also want to try and squeeze two full servings in one day of Serious Mass. At first I could only hold down one but by the end of the cycle I could easily put down two a day. Cardio isn't always a bad thing when gaining weight because afterwards your body is looking for more & more food. I hope this helps and always remember to lift heavy and eat clean!
Question:	Does it work without work out ?because im so busy all day
Answer:	if you consume this product without working out, you'll get a serious mass without the "m"
Question:	banana
Answer:	I’m adding my two cents. Chocolate peanut butter is the truth. Banana was good at first, and then it wasn’t.
Question:	How well does this work? I'm a teen with a high matabalizum and I'm looking to build mass and bulk up
Answer:	I’m nearly 50 years old, but seeing this question I had to comment. Until I was around 32 or so, I couldn’t gain weight no matter how much I had to eat; or so it seemed. I remember not caring whether it was fat or ideally muscle, I just didn’t want to be skinny anymore. Then I hit a point in my life where the metabolism slowed and I couldn’t keep the weight off. That lasted for nearly 15 years and for some reason my appetite suddenly plummeted and now I’m back looking at weight gainers simply to do nothing more than maintain a healthy weight. Just try to keep in mind that human physiology typically prohibits putting on large amounts of muscle in a short period of time naturally. That means that a large portion of quick gains will be fat. Embrace your high metabolism and shoot for a reasonable goal. That said, the more calories you intake in a day that exceeds what your body can burn, the quicker you will gain weight. For the most part, it’s simple math. Total Intake - Total Burned = Energy Stored Primarily as Fat. There are about 3500 calories in one pound. If you were to forge an extra 3500 calories a day, you could theoretically gain 7 pounds a week. For someone like you, that probably means eating 8,000 calories a day. Now as far as this product goes, it’s one of the highest calorie per serving gainers I have seen and it’s much quicker to pound a shake than to eat a steak! Another thing to keep in mind is that supplements that are fortified with vitamins and minerals, have the potential to far exceed recommended safe values for human consumption. I ran into this when I was your age. I was drinking over a gallon of milk a day, milk is fortified with vitamin D and that build up led to some freaky painful headaches in me personally. Too much calcium can also upset your bodies homeostasis and lead to surprising problems. Being young, your body can handle a lot! Just wanted you to be aware of the things I wish I knew when I was your age. If I were young again I would focus on speed, agility and good clean ripped muscle! Shredded muscle always looks bigger than fat muscle. Cheers!
