txjason's Full Review: Eas Myoplex Nutrition Shake
My wife and I both drink the EAS Myoplex Original shakes and really like them. We eat 6 small meals a day and 2 of our meals consist of the Myoplex shakes. These shakes taste very good, especially compared to some other "health" type shakes I've tried in the past.
You mix the shake with 16oz of water or skim milk and you can either blend them or shake them in a shaker. I've fixed them both ways but can't tell that much difference, so for convenience sake, I use a shaker. You must use cold water or you won't be able to drink it. It goes down so much smoother when it's very cold. Another thing to note is that sometimes you might want to add an ounce or two over the recommended 16 oz. to thin the shake out if its too thick.
I really like the chocolate, strawberry, banana, and vanilla flavors. If you try one of these shakes for the first time, be sure not to judge it from the first sip. The first time I tried a Myoplex shake I thought it was just "ok". The second one was better and after that I've really liked them.
If you are looking for a meal replacement that is high protein, high in vitamins, and tastes great, Myoplex is the shake for you.
Lastly..... do not think that you have to pay $1.75 or more for these shakes. Most places that sell them have them way over priced but if you will do some searching on the net you can find some very good deals on Myoplex. I have found them for less than $1.20 each.
**********UPDATE***********
I received several comments asking good questions, so I thought I'd updated my review to answer these questions the best I could.
I mentioned I have 6 meals a day. These meals are spaced 2 1/2 to 3 hrs apart and consist of.....
1st meal
Myoplex shake
2nd meal (lunch)
small but high protein lunch balanced with vegetables
3rd meal
Myoplex protein bar
4th meal 5pm after workout
Myoplex shake
5th meal (supper)
balanced meal, protein/carbs
6th meal
a piece of fruit, and/or possibly fat free cottage cheese
water with every meal and in between.
My wife and are doing the "Body for Life" program which is a book by Bill Phillips. I am not trying to loose any weight but instead trying to build muscle and "bulk up" a little, so sometimes I will intentionally take in a few more calories than someone might if they were trying to lose weight. Someone asked if the Myoplex shake fills you up after drinking it. The answer is YES! As I said earlier, it is mixed with 16oz of water and that in itself fills you up to a degree. The shake is very filling and my wife even has somewhat of a hard time drinking the whole thing sometimes. It holds me over very very well until my next meal 2-3 hrs later.
I was also asked to give the nutritional info for the Myoplex shake and I am including a link to the nutritional guide from EAS's website. You will need to copy and paste this URL into your browser's address bar. I hope this info helps!
