This product review is written by a friend of mine. She is an avid crossfitter, teacher, and yoga addict and truly believes in only putting super healthy foods in her body. I asked her to help me with this product review and below are her findings with the products. Herbalife was kind enough to send us the entire line of products for athletes, “Nutrition for the 24 Hour Athlete”. The kind people at Herbalife sent me a box full of a variety of their line of their “24” products for athletes. These products use fructose and have no artificial sweeteners added. This could be big selling point for some, or a put off for others. I used the Hydrate product, which is high in electrolytes and vitamin C to keep hydrated before or during a workout. It tasted good and mixed easily.
The other 2 products I enjoyed were the Rebuild strength and theFormula 1 meal replacement. The chocolate Rebuild strength tasted like chocolate cake, delicious. My husband thought it was too sweet for first thing in the morning but I loved it. But with 24 grams of protein and 14 grams of sugar, it might be too much sugar for many athletes. The Formula 1 meal replacement was also delicious. I had the vanilla flavor. It has 9 grams of protein and 9 grams of sugar per serving, a little too low in protein for a meal, so I used it more as a snack. These seem to be good quality products, taste great and mix easily. I’m not sure how they stack up in price because these were sent to me to review and to order them you have to go through a Herbalife rep. So I was not able to price them on-line. If you are avoiding artificial sweeteners, and the amount of sugar is ok for your training goals, these might be good products for you
