Review on Garden Life Organic Plant Based Protein Sports Nutrition by April Kahn

Revainrating 5 out of 5

He sent me to the emergency room. Very bad. good taste and nutritional profile.

I want to start by saying I've had a hard time finding a vegan protein replacement that met all the criteria I wanted, no soy, high in protein (30g minimum), BCAAs and great taste. So when I first met I liked this material especially because it tastes great. However, when I start using it constantly on a daily basis, I get backups. No amount of water or fiber mattered. Finally, one day after drinking, I woke up with severe pain in my stomach. I was unable to defecate or gas. The pain came in waves and I often had to sit down because I couldn't stand. The pain intensified and I had to completely refuse to eat, on the third morning I went to the emergency room. The CT scan showed I was constipated to the point of complete blockage. Ironic considering my high fiber vegan diet usually gets me running 3 times a day with no issues. I ended up having to go home with a gallon of the juice they give people before a colonoscopy and then spend 5 hours in the bathroom exhaling that protein colored liquid and shaking out my ass, which was the second worst result. the physical pains I have ever experienced (kidney stones number one). I don't know why this thing is acting like instant cement in my stomach, but I have to try something else. I apologize for the grotesque nature of this review, but it was a very painful and torturous experience for me. me and if i can save just one person from the hell i went through last night it is worth taking the time to write this review.
