She shared: “I’m something of a beginner when it comes to powdered supplements, so it took a few tries before I found the right method for mixing this unflored powder into the right beverage and not hing it come out super lumpy.”
She continued: “I initially tried room temperature water (definitely not recommended), then tried orange juice (not bad, but not ideal due to the overall acidity of the OJ). I also initially tried a mini whisk to blend it, which didn’t work at all — so I resorted to a battery-operated milk frother, which was better, though not flawless. If you don’t he one of these or an immersion blender, mixing might be challenging.”
In the end, she found the best approach for her:
“Ultimately, learning how to mix this and what to mix it with is step one to reaping its benefits. I found that a simple smoothie-style beverage was ultimately best, but others on the website mix it with ginger tea, coffee, etc.”
Regarding the taste, Rita had no complaints.
She observed: “Some reviewers on the mindbodygreen site said they did not like the taste of the unflored powder. I didn’t he any issue with that and wasn’t turned off by any kind of aftertaste. For me, it was more a matter of getting the powder fully blended into my beverage of choice.”
Beyond mixing and flor, Rita liked the results she felt and saw.
“This product is packed with several of the essential supplements I’m looking for at my stage of life, from collagen and biotin to L-glutamine and hyaluronic acid.
“I’m on a high-protein regimen, and this boasts 16g of protein per dose, which was a huge bonus for me. It’s also packed with vitamin C, vitamin E, and biotin, so I was able to ditch my daily pill versions of those supplements.”
