Hello, That is a really interesting graphic on my product! It does not belong there. Obviously someone has somehow overlaid this photo over my photo to prevent me from selling product. I will work on getting it fixed! Thank you for writing in...

I received 4 canisters of the shakes, (2 vanilla, 2 chocolate) 2 small containers of the cleanse, 1 container of isagenix supreme, 2 bottles of isa-snacks( chocolate & vanilla), 1 bottle of accelerator, 1 bottle of isa flush & 4 sticks of orange energy mix. Also came with booklet with instructions and additional info. If you decide it works for you, I'd recommend buying it from isagenix person, I could help you with that. It's less costly and you can pick and choose which products you want. I did that and now I just use the shakes and cleanses. You also have the options of getting your product for free by either signing on more people or entering yourself into a challenge showing your results. I haven't signed anyone on myself yet, I don't push and I'm not trying to make $, but if someone was seeing results and wanted to join, I'd be more than willing to guide them in the right direction. It's worked for me and I'm happy with the program, good luck!

Honestly I didn't notice a major deiffence between the two products. I think it is just a different scent in the Ultra Nourishing cleansing treatment (Lemon rosemary vanilla bean).

My beans do smell a little... acrid and icky. I'm making extract right now and it smells strongly of vodka and vanilla, no trace of that acrid smell. However my vanilla has been maturing for two months and it's still not ready. Kind of a bummer, but not their fault.

I never tried this mixture and you can only experiment to find out what you prefer. However, the powder mix is already a SuperFood which compensates for the nutrients you are losing on a daily basis. For example, the food pyramid tells us to eat certain amounts of fruits, vegetables, grains , etc thru-out the day, but with Greens Plus it gives you that well balance in just one glass! You mix it with water. You can be creative and add a banana or another of your favorite fruit. For myself, I choose not to add SuperFood, something that is already potent with nutrional value, to a cooked food which will take away that value. Ask yourself, what is it that I want to accomplish? If you decide to use the Super Food - Greens Plus you will begin to see how great you feel, aches & pains begin to diminish (a little). Cooked food takes away ALL NUTRIENTS which the body needs. Read up on the ingredients and decide. Hope this was helpful and let me know how it works out for you. Oh by the way, I am not a doctor nor am I a nutrionist. Just one who have been using the product for some time and it made me a believer. Watch the documentary video "Fat Sick & Nearly Dead" this is where I first learned of Greens Plus.

Reading the reviews, it seems that these beans might be the remainder beans that have already been used to produce vanilla extract. Therefore much of the flavor has been removed. If you want to make your own vanilla extract, you want dried beans, not "plump moist" ones. It seems that they are plump and moist because they have already been soaking in extraction vats. For details read the 1 star review with 82 upvotes under the JR mushrooms 1/4 lb. bourbon vanilla package.

None of them. It's an expensive hoax. I tested them along with green coffee bean. No benefit. Eat less. Exercise more. It's pretty simple -- not easy, but simple.

is this the same stuff as this? http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2015/01/busted-dr-oz-guest-must-repay-9-million-to-customers-in-magic-beans-diet-scam/

To be totally honest, I don't know. It is one of those gut feelings where you do it because you know it is working for you, but how, I really don't know. AND, I will continue to take it. I also bought the black (caraway) seeds at a local India grocery store. I have experienced a cleansing, (no stomach upset, just results) and some family/friends didn't have the same experience (a cleansing). The seeds aren't fun, none the less, I will continue to take them as well. I hope this helps.

I haven't noticed anything. I think all this formula non-sense is much ado about nothing, people hear about 'formula changes' and then immediately become skeptic of the product and Think it tastes worse. I've been using this stuff for years for yogurt, tea, coffee, oatmeal ect. and haven't noticed a difference.Maybe the first batch after the change wasn't tested thoroughly enough and wasn't sweet enough, and my orders fell between the batches(I typically order several canisters at a time, enough for nearly a year), but whatever problems they may have had they've obviously ironed out.This is still one of the best tasting, most cost effective sugar substitutes in existence.

Sorry, no longer taking this product...it's too expensive. Now buying and using DietWorks Green Coffee Bean Extract, which is much more reasonably priced.

They changed two of the original items, you can still buy the ionic elements separately. There were too many complaints about the elements, I think many were being told to add them to the Power shake and it ruined the taste. (Most prefer them in abut 20 oz. Of cold lemon water. No more fiber either, the two new products see still great, I actually heard David Sandoval say avg. Weight loss is now more than 12pds. In ten days. There is also a second way to do the transformation where you can eat a regular meal everyday. (You must choose from the list of healthy options). Any other questions?

Unfortunately my beans also arrived as you described. Although they were listed as olive nation I believe they were distributed by JR Mushroom. I will not buy these again.

You are probably using dark beans. Put the beans on a paper towel for a couple hours so the oils will be dried. That usually does the trick for me.

Ugh, come on guys, she asked about hair and skin, not how great it tastes; I'm sure we all know that by now!Kate: I actually only use this for my face-it's not so sweet and I only use this in my tea if I run out of my trader joes raw organic honey. For my face it is fantastic! I'm allergic to everything so this has become my cleanser, face wash, and moisturizer all in one (though I do use various oils afterwards on my face) but its fantastic for whole body, softening, making less sensitive, calming, etc. I think you'll def enjoy it! I have not tried on my hair yet but others I know love it in washes! Hope it helps!V.

The package lists as ingredients only (organic) black beans and water. Considering the country of origin , one can never be totally sure about that, I guess ... They do taste like protein, though, not like starch, as ordinary spaghetti do.

That odor is not normal. I wrote a review about it and how it may be poisonous. I think it is a chemical they use to make the beans look plumper and heavier...since they sell these by weight not by piece. I have bought vanilla in the past and the odor from the beans sold by this company should alarm you.
