I heard about it on 'You are what you eat' and thought I'd buy some as feel a bit tired lately and hope it'll give me a boost?
I just added it to a smoothie tonight as I'm into those too. Turned it an awful green/grey colour but tasted ok.

Anyone felt health benefits after trying it?

i have taken tablets too - usually when a bit run down and stuff - I do fel better but I take iron and other stuff at the saem time so can't say is that for sure.

hairdressers reccommend it.

errrr...think I did when I was taking it but have stopped now - so must start again

ok will give it a try then. I'm a hairdresser and didn't know it could help hair? I know kelp does.

I used to use it. The chocolate flavour. With milk. This stuff called 'Spirutein', not that Gillian McKeith crap.

So did you feel any different expat? This one isn't by gillian mckeith.
