We drink a smoothie containing this protein powder at about 9 am every morning. I add half a banana and some frozen fruit and blend it up in our Vitamix blender. It holds us until lunch.

Hi Elizabeth, if I'm only going to have a smoothie as a meal, then I normally blend in lots of frozen fruits and mix with juice. At other times, I add vegetables. It's very filling.

I also like to mix the shake with some chia seeds and hemp for extra protein and fiber. Extremely filling and nutritious.

I like this Pea Protein because i am a breast cancer survivor, my doctor told no artificial sweeteners at all..It container nothing harmful to your body. The only thing is that it can be hard to drink at times due to the lack of any sweeteners. I have gotten use to it and its no bad at all. Very filling and very effective for meal replacement and post workout !!!

It sure does. You actually feel full after drinking it. Chocolate is the best flavor and drink it cold. Amazon has the best price per case too.

No. I find that the fiber content keeps me full to the point that many times I'm not at the next mealtime.

I mix it with bananas or apples and walnuts or almonds. I don't mind it by its self with almond milk or nonfat milk. I have found that it mixes better in the blender than in a shaker and the longer you blend it the creamier it gets. I have more energy and it's better than not eating at but I haven't lost any weight so far and I exercise regularly.

I recommend the Healthy Meal (nutritional shake mix) with 2 scoops with the protein powder (it increases hunger control & energy) 1 scoop.

Try 'Garden of Life' Raw Meal vanilla chai flavor. It costs less than this product, tastes better and in my opinion is much better for you. Remember with the cacoa and maca powder you are getting added caffeine which in my experience is a toxin that builds up in the tissues and causes problems over time. They do make you feel great but there's a price to pay down the road. No such issues with the garden of life product I mentioned and it's cheaper to boot.

I found a meal replacement drink called fitmiss at walgreens. This about the same indgredients at vemma, but only cost $25.00. It comes in either vanilla or chocolate, and it doest have a gritty taste either..i would try that

It tastes good. Try it with vanilla unsweetened almond milk, very delicious. You do know vibrant health has this very same green drink IN a protein powder? The chocolate one is amazing.

Yes, it is filling and does the job when a real meal isn't avaliable. I make it taste better by adding cinnamon and ginger.

It not the same but its close. You can definitely tell its a protein shake. I throw a scoop in with my green shakes. That includes kale, spinach, 1/2 banana and Almond milk. I only have it with water if I'm rushing and can't make a smoothie.

Protein is really only necessary when you donot have enough of protein intake.I use all herbalife products.there shakes are delicious and has a very great flavor..no nasty taste.very worth it. It makes you fuller also but no protein powder isnt really necessary unless you really need to boost your protein intake.but very great product

I wish it did blend and/or dissolve. Really it just mixes and needs to be drank rather quickly or it settles out. But the positives of this product greatly outweigh the annoyance. Oh and it's a VERY fine dust like powder. My wife uses it in a blender with a banana and almond milk. Not too bad. If you can tolerate sweeter more robust drinks then it might prove almost invisible to your taste buds since it has quite an inert earthy overall flavor. But if you need a wide variety of amino acids that are readily absorbed buy the intestines and easily processed by the liver this is perhaps the second best of anything currently available. The first being Chorella but it has some nasty stomach issues for some. Honestly, with my wife's limited liver function, this has been a god send especially when her appetite is so low and her stomach is swollen from ascites. One drink with a heaping tablespoon of hemp powder and she has a decent minimum protein/amino acids for a day. Add that to even modest meals and a person will do quite well. I hope that helps. Oh and BTW it's made primarily from the seeds.

Hi Linda.... I only took this product for about a week. I didn't notice feeling any less hungry. I actually felt like I was more hungry. Different products work different on different people. It may work for you. Good luck !

Hi! Glad to hear your loving the taste :) We suggest keeping the inner lid prssure seal on and simply poke 1 hole out for the powder to dispense. This allows you to shake only the tiniest bit. Soon you will know how many shakes you use and can judge by sight. Much easier than having to keep a spoon handy. Not hard to do and when it sprinkles lightly its easier to manage. Let us know if you have any other questions. Diana

This is my favorite. To make it more filling, I use almond milk and a handful of ice, put it all in my nutribullet and end up with an amazing shake. For added fun I buy sugarfree syrups like banana and pineapple and add it to the mix...yum!

I have tried this, and my answer would be "no," it isn't better, as far as I can tell. I found this product to be lumpy and the taste not so good. I can't speak for the nutritional aspects, but I would not purchase this product again.
