Good tool to help follow my goals
Only on day 2 so far, so I'll report back on how I fare in the long term.It does taste pretty nasty, I think due to the broccoli, but if you're in it for health you don't care about the taste. Food is fuel, not fun.Is it filling? Not as much as it claims but it's not half-bad either. If you haven't had many of these kinds of products before, let me tell you: it's true what they say about how if you take in good nutrients you will be less hungry. Sugar usually makes me hungry, but I've tried juice fasting before and surprisingly, despite the massive amounts of sugar in juice, I wouldn't get as ravenous as expected. I don't think any of the ingredients in The Ultimate Life contain much natural sugar, but they do have nutrition, so it seemed like a good idea to me. Truth be told, I also wanted a cheaper and easier alternative to juicing, because while this stuff isn't inexpensive, juicing costs more, and you either end up spending a lot of time buying groceries and juicing them yourself or going to a store. I'm sure they valued my business at that store, but I felt embarrassed by how much I would spend there. Plus, I travel a lot and need a good solution for when I want some juice when I travel.Anyways, we'll see how this goes! In terms of taste, my favourite by far is Warrior Food Chocolate Protein. But despite my love for Warrior Food, I have to admit this is more filling. It could be placebo - it tastes so bad, it *must* be filling! - but it works. Or it could be that I just don't eat so much because if my only option is to eat this... hey, whatever works!EDIT: So I did a 14-day juice fast, 10 days of which I subsisted solely on this. Highly recommended. Higher protein than juice, cheaper. I lost 14 pounds in 14 days. The taste stops being bad after a day or two and starts being something you crave. I am now using it as a core part of my daily diet. Every day I have just this (usually 3 servings) before 5 pm, then a healthy dinner. I've never felt better. I'd also recommend the modified fast, because it really does change your tastes - since then I've just been craving vegetables. Life-changing and takes the frustration out of planning daily meals.

Mooooooo
A friend asked me what this tasted like.. I said "Mooooooooooooo" and described it in better detail.Have had it for 3 days now (three drinks).Tastes differently each time based on what I mix it with.Day 1) Protein Shake mix + Strawberries + 1 scoop + Water - Tasted like dirt but did the job (kept me full for 5+ hours)Day 2) Strawberries + 1 scoop + water - Tasted like strawberry flavored grass but did the job.Day 3) Peaches + 1 scoop + water - Tasted like unsweetened grass but did the job.I'm going to try and mix it with other things to make the grass taste work with it.. Just gotta find something that would taste like good grass. Maybe fresh fruit instead of frozen, organic milk or some tequila..Either case, I bought it to provide nutrients and be filling to eat and it does that perfectly.Now... to find a fix for the gritty texture and grassy taste.

Great Blend, But Can Get Boring
As a very health conscious vegan, I've tried lots of raw and vegan and gluten free protein products. I used this pretty regularly for a while and consumed it according to the directions on the package (the shake). With a dose of this stuff I feel like I can let my mind worry a little less about where all my nutrition is coming from. However, the same thing over and over does get boring. I'd recommend it for a fasting regimen as it's quite filling and well balanced. But, it's not really a "go-to" product for me.

Can't drink it
Okay -I TRIED. I really did. I have been "blasting" greens for a month or two and purchased this product to up my nutrition levels even further. I followed the recipe to a T and could not swallow this stuff. THEN I added a couple tablespoons to my blast so I could at least get some of the benefits and not be overwhelmed by the taste. UGH! THEN is put a tsp in my blast. UGH. for those who enjoy this stuff and keep insulting people on here who can't drink it - SORRY ABOUT IT. I'm not gonna lie. I admire the maker's ethics and really wanted to support this product. I just can't. Call me old-fashioned but I still believe something should taste good for me to eat or drink it. I drink down a lot of fruit and veggie concoctions with supplements that other people look at and gag - so it's not like I'm unable to develop a taste for something healthy. I cannot stomach this stuff - I really want to. I really tried. I'm glad I ordered the smaller can. I wish there was a sample available that I could have ordered instead. I'm giving mine to Mikey - he eats anything.
