Troubleshooting
Powder not mixing smoothly or leaving clumps.
Ensure you are using cold skimmed milk. Shake vigorously for at least 20 seconds. For a perfectly smooth texture, use a blender and consider adding a few ice cubes.
Shake tastes too thin or too rich.
Adjust the amount of skimmed milk slightly (e.g., 240ml for richer, 260ml for thinner) to match your preference, while being mindful of altering the nutritional balance. Ensure correct powder-to-liquid ratio (2 scoops to 250ml).
Not feeling full after consuming the shake.
Ensure you are preparing the shake with 2 level scoops of powder and 250ml of skimmed milk as directed. The fiber and protein content are designed to promote satiety. If you're consistently hungry, review your overall diet and consider incorporating healthy, low-calorie snacks between shakes, or consult a healthcare professional.
Experiencing digestive discomfort.
Check the ingredients list for known allergens (milk, soy, barley). If symptoms persist, discontinue use and consult a doctor, especially if you have pre-existing digestive conditions. Ensure adequate water intake throughout the day.
