Costumer Reviews
First, I find it incredibly silly to judge a nutritional product (and call it "poor") solely based on what it tastes like. Second, I personally feel, and so do those I know who've tried it, Vega is probably one of the best tasting shakes out there (and it can simply be mixed with water, by the way, for those of you who are like me and hate milk AND milk substitutes).
As for what truly matters: the quality of the shake. Vega is hands down the best of its kind on the Vegan/Vegetarian market. This isn't just a shake thrown together by marketers, this was based on years of research and development by Brendan Brazier, a true vegan athlete. It is the perfect combination of protein, fiber, vitamins, nutrients, and even some herbs. The protein itself is an amazing and hard (or impossible?) to find combination of hemp, pea protein, brown rice, and flax. NO soy, either!
I've been taking these shakes for about two months and feel and see a noticeable difference, which is key - in energy level, muscle development, even mental clarity.
As for the cost, sure its a little pricey, but it goes back to the old "you get what you pay for". Think about why taking a supplement is important to you, and then ask yourself if paying slightly more but receiving more benefits are worth making a sacrifice somewhere else. By they way, Vega is so inclusive that it eliminates the need for going to several different supplements, therefore I think the price basically evens out within a budget. Also, I find a half a serving (one scoop) does the trick just fine, so you can stretch out the life of a tub.
Believe me, I've done my research, and there are some good products out there, but this one really is "the best"!
My husband and I went organic vegan in April of 2009. I work in a hospital and am surrounded by sick and dying people. I work with a Registered Dietitian who went vegan a few months prior. Then we all watched Food Inc., King Corn and some others and realized how unhealthy and dangerous most food is, as evidenced by all the sick people in the hospitals the the diabetes and obesity epidemics. It was time to take control of our health. Since then we have each lost 50 pounds and it is still coming off. My husband has reduced the amount of diabetes and blood pressure medicine he takes by half and I am off all medication for arthritis. One of the reasons is VEGA...it provides the daily amount of vitamins and minerals plus green food, probiotics and antioxidents and more that we need. We drink it daily and have never felt better and can see even greater health in our future. Because we are very busy, fast food was convenient...eating organic, raw, vegan is not... but this supplement certainly takes care of one meal and is so incredibly beneficial on many levels. We love the berry but don't mind the others either. Honestly, we watch the sales and pick them up when there is a price break. It is the best money you can spend for nutrition. Since we have been on VEGA, we have convinced others to try it and they are still taking it daily too. VEGA will always be a part of our daily routine. How much is great health worth?
