Product Reviews of CytoSport Muscle Milk, Chocolate, 2.47 Pound
Product Review: Cytosport Vanilla Muscle Milk
Summary: 5 Stars
Fantastic product--I am a group fitness instructor and I use this product everyday--I add a banana, peanut or cashew butter, plain yogurt, ice and water--this is in lieu of dinner--I don't get hungry and it really keeps my energy levels up!Product Review: Cytosport....GET THE LEAD OUT!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
As much as I LOVE this product,the amounts of cadmium and lead in it is just IN-EXCUSABLE! After reading the reply at their home website, the company totally dodged the question of WHY is that junk in there in the first place? As well as what they plan to do about it! Lead is extremely had to eliminate once in the body, yet Cytosport pretty much blows off the issue
After using this product for over three years I am now actively boycotting it and am telling everyone I know not to use it. Hopefully they will get the message....
Product Review: Doesn't mix well , bad aftertaste, poisonous for your organs
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased the chocolate flavor. Despite stirring in vigorously and shaking it also in a jar - 2 different methods of testing it for how well it mixes -- it was still clumpy despite the claims that it mixes well. I found the chocolate taste okay mixed with water, but it does have a lingering aftertaste which I find unpleasant.
Moreover, a recent Consumer Reports/ ABC News investigation testing ingredients of Protein Drinks found this: ...The worst of the products tested was Muscle Milk Chocolate powder, which contained all four toxic metals; three of them at the highest levels of all products tested. Three daily servings of this particular brand and flavor contained an average of:
* 5.6 µg cadmium
* 13.5 µg of lead
* 12.2 µg of arsenic
* 0.7 µg of mercury
Read it for yourself here:
[...]
The samples of Muscle Milk Chocolate powder we tested contained all four heavy metals, and levels of three metals in the product were among the highest of all in our tests. Average cadmium levels of 5.6 µg in three daily servings slightly exceeded the USP limit of 5 µg per day, and the average lead level of 13.5 µg also topped the USP limit of 10 µg per day. The average arsenic level of 12.2 µg was approaching the USP limit of 15 µg per day, and the average for mercury was 0.7 µg, well below the USP's 15 µg-per-day limit. Three daily servings of Muscle Milk Vanilla Crème contained 12.2 µg of lead, exceeding lead limits, and 11.2 µg of arsenic. A fourth product, Muscle Milk Nutritional Shake Chocolate (liquid), provided an average of 14.3 µg of arsenic per day from three servings, approaching the proposed USP limit.
Cadmium raises special concern because it accumulates in and can damage the kidneys, the same organs that can be damaged by excessive protein consumption. And it can take 20 years for the body to eliminate even half the cadmium absorbed today.
Needless to say I'm stopping taking this.
Product Review: Excellent product...unique...
Summary: 5 Stars
Its a truly unique product. Works great. I bought it for a gift to a friend, who suffers problems with vitamins and needs strenght in bones. He had a lil ammount of fat, since he go everyday to the gym. But, once he started drinking this stuff, you could see the how it works!!!! he got bigger and loss weight too...(FAT to be exact)...from 34" of waist, to 32", and 30" in some pants...
TRULY unique product. Loved it, i'm buying it for myself.
Product Review: Excellent protein
Summary: 4 Stars
One of the best tasting protein supplements I've found. Truly tastes like a milk shake. Good protein content. At $25 a bottle, a great price also...
I noticed that GNC now prices the Muscle Milk proteins at the exact same price that Amazon has been providing to us for years...I'd like to believe this is because the power of the Internet changed how greedy stores price their products. GNC was charging almost $45 dollars for the exact same bottle...
Thanks Amazon!
