DaleE Posted August 16, 2016 Share Anybody tried this? Looking to get my protein up without all the carbs http://www.keto-sa.co.za/online-shop/banting-friendly-products/keto-g-meal-replacement/weight-loss-keto-g-meal-replacement-vanilla/ I've not tried the product, but if protein is your concern, why not just eat real food? Biltong, nuts, eggs. All the ingredients in products like these tend to look like a chemistry book ... Im never sure what they all actually do. My rule: If it's not recognisable as food ... It probably isn't. HappyMartin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted August 16, 2016 Share This one should be phased out and followed up by the 5:2 diet, oh how I yearn to read all the stupid post about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because it costs less than biltong and nuts. However, they don't state the weight content of the R329 tub, so it is difficult to compare.

Tracey8670 Posted August 16, 2016 Share Guys - what is the serving size (so how much out of 600g) and then do the costing vs eggs, biltong, nuts, cheese.Secondly, what are the ingredients? Anything powdery must have something binding it -doubt it is coconut/almond flour or psyllium husks?Thirdly, do you need to up your protein - be careful - too much protein has the same effect as carbs (insulin spike and fat storage). Are you sure you dont need to up your fat (you vegan??)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMartin Posted August 16, 2016 Share Twenty servings in a container. Each serving about the same protein as three eggs. In eggs it's about the same as 60 eggs. No idea what 60 eggs will cost Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMartin Posted August 16, 2016 Share Looked it up. At Spar which is listed as the cheapest it's R20 a dozen and Woolies is double that. 5 dozen eggs is R100 at Spar, R200 at Woolies. Both are much cheaper than that powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
