Vibrant Health, Maximum Vibrance, Complete Vegan Meal Shake with Plant-Based Protein, Chocolate Chunk, 15 Servings

PRODUCT EXPERIENCE: Strangely enough, this concoction gets rid of the ear pain I have. I listen to a lot of recordings that can last for hours at a time. Sometimes I fall asleep listening to these recordings, and I used to always fall asleep on my left side with my headphones on. A couple of years ago, my left ear started hurting. The cartilage, the skin, the skin surrounding my ear (including facial skin) all just HURT, even with the gentlest touch sometimes. I hate going to doctors, so I never got it checked out. The pain never went away (you can chalk that up to degenerative age or whatever), so I have since modified how I wear my headphones or I wear a one-sided headset with ear piece on my right side instead. Okay, so that's the condition of my ear when I started using this powder. A week into using this powder (I started adding it to my three daily scoops of Amazing Grass), I randomly touched my left ear one day and I felt no pain. I was surprised, so I kept touching my ear, pushing on it, pulling on it and the skin around it, but I could elicit no pain no matter what I did. So I'm sitting there stunned, and then I continue to check for ear pain over the next two days and I start telling people about this (my husband, my kids, my mom...). I few days ago I got very busy with exams and stopped taking this powder. The ear pain came back. I started taking this powder again yesterday, now the ear pain is greatly diminished once more this morning. What's going on? I don't know. Something in this powder reduces inflammation, and might be doing some other things that alleviates the pain that affects my cartilage and skin. This is the only product that I can correlate to the reduction of my pain, due to the dates that I started and stopped this powder, along with the dates that the ear pain of two years stopped and started. The SECOND thing that this product may have helped me with is also a bit puzzling to me. Along with the long term ear pain, I had also very recently (within the last month) been able to hear my heart rate and blood flow from the same painful ear. It was odd. The sounds would just come and go, and be sort of like a swooshing noise. Sometimes I could hear the blood flowing and sometimes I couldn’t. After taking this powder, these sounds stopped. I can’t explain this. I do not know why this product would help me with both my ear pain and the noises I was hearing, but it seems to have helped. I don’t even know what was causing the pain and the more recent ability to hear my blood flow through that same ear, as I never went to a doctor for this. So, in summary, this product seems to be a good product and apparently gave me something that my body needed. If you have pain and inflammation, are slow to heal and have general deterioration from age or disease, try adding this powder to your daily routine. It might help you. TASTE: Regarding the flavor, it is great by me. As written above, I mix it with my chocolate Amazing Grass. Chocolate on chocolate makes it all very tolerable. No, it's not Godiva, but Godiva can't heal your body, only your soul... PRICE: For this chocolate product, you shouldn't paying more than about $64 (Spring 2015), which was the price I bought it for less than a month ago (it's now priced at more than DOUBLE on today's date). If you see the price out of control when you are wanting to buy it, just go to another website (such as LuckyVitamin) or try the regular non-chocolate version on Amazon.

I am a veteran when it comes to choosing high quality protien shakes that avoid extra sugars and fillers and unnecessary ingredients. I deal with chronic inflammation in my body and can tell a difference in the way my body recovers and responds to excercise based upon the supplements that I use. I have used the Kachava brand for several years, prior to trying Maximum Vibrance. I had planned to mix the two powders to try to economize and stretch the MV. However, from the first day that I took MV in the morning (blended with half a banana for sweetness), I felt so energized, my stomach was settled (I have a sensitive stomach), I had more energy through the day and even my menstrual cramps felt less severe. The taste is VERY earthy and I cannot drink more than 8 oz of it, so I just use less water and have a more concentrated drink rather than using 10 to 16 oz like with the rest of my protien shakes. This also replaces alot of supplements that I was taking (probiotic for example), so that will help me find room for this supplement in my budget. As someone with a chronic condition/chronic pain, I can tell you that the more you give your body the basic building blocks that it needs to function, the better and better my symptoms become. No amount of Tylenol or Ibuprophen can do that! I would also like to share that I have a friend who is in advanced stages of cancer and has said that much of their ability to fight through chemo and recover more quickly has been with the help of this nutritious shake. That inspired me to take it and I'll never look back. Good Luck and Great Health to ALL.

Tried to get it at Whole Foods. They said they didn't carry it but they will soon because they had so many requests. I blend 2 scoops with 2 bananas, cinnamon, ice and water. You get used to the taste but when blended like this it actually tastes really good. The only thing not in this is Omega 3 so I throw some walnuts in as well. This sent me into a healing crisis! (makes you feel bad but it's the best for your body and occurs when your body is given everything it needs) It's pretty amazing. Been taking it for two months now. I wish it was cheaper but it's worth the extra money. I can't eat gluten and this is gluten free. This is a mix of Vibrant Health's Green Vibrance, Rainbow Vibrance, and one of their protein products so it's 3 products in one. I keep it in the freezer. It's a big tub but it's expensive and if you use the full 2 scoop serving size then the big tub only lasts a couple weeks so that's $80 a month but like I said, it is worth it if you prioritize your health. It wasn't a magic trick where I got a jolt of adrenaline and suddenly glowing skin or anything. Real health takes time and Maximum Vibrance promotes real, true health. At first I was concerned that there was too much iron in MV so I contacted Vibrant health and they explained that the iron content was fine because of what TYPE of iron was in the product. I was given a very detailed explanation of this that made a lot of sense and they were very friendly. One thing I noticed was that when I got a paper cut and when I stepped on a piece of glass it took me a long time to stop the bleeding, there was a lot of bleeding, a lot of blood, and it kept coming out really fast. I'm talking about a tiny shallow papercut that normally wouldn't bleed at all. Not a huge deal for me and it eventually stopped just fine. I think this product is good for thinning the blood, which is good for me, but I wouldn't recommend it to people who are on blood thinners. For me though, fantastic product!
