Herbalife Formula 1 Protein Shake Mix


Debaboo

Recommended Posts

Debaboo Newbie

A friend is just starting to sell Herbalife and I like the idea of their products. She did some research for me and came up with "the mix is not certified gluten-free, however, if you look at the ingredients, you will not find "gluten or gluten type ingredients". We have many "gluten free" clients who consume Protein Drink mix every day with no problem or reaction. But if you still do not want to drink that, Vanilla Soy milk is Certified Gluten Free and you can make the shake with that and Allergen Free Formula 1 (soy free)"

This answer makes me a "bit" nervous. I was wondering if anyone has used it and what reactions, if any you have experienced?

Those are actually the ingredients for their older version. These are the most recent on their web site. Do they look gluten free to you guys? (I'm new at this and this powder is a big part of my diet so I'm also curious!)

I followed your link & it said in big letters Contains Wheat

So.... No I wouldn't use it.

editted: On one computer it took me to the link & it showed the contains wheat statement. On the other computer it had a different list of ingredients. Lots of strange sounding stuff. No obvious wheat? :(

I don't see any gluten ingredients, but yuck. Why would you even consider drinking that?

Herbalife is one of the products I tried in the 80s to try to make me feel better before I knew anything about gluten. It did not make me feel better and now I know why :)

Seriously.

Eat food instead.

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
