My New Daily Drink!
It's not too often I get excited about the addition of a new product to the vitamin store, but this one is worth getting excited about.
Innate Response has come out with one of the best tasting drink mixes I've ever sampled, but the real news is what's in it. Each 100 calorie serving contains:
- 15 grams of fiber (in an almost unheard of perfect mix of 8 grams soluble and 7 grams insoluble)
- 5 grams of protein
- 3 billion probiotics
- over a gram of plant-based omegas.
- Not only that, it's only 100 calories.
Here are some of the reasons why I'm so excited about Clinical Metacore:
Number 1: Most of us don't get nearly enough fiber. The average American gets between 4-11 grams a day and every major health organization recommends between 25-38 grams. Our Paleolithic ancestors got at least 50 or more. In virtually every study, high fiber diets are associated with better health outcomes. Fiber helps control blood sugar, makes you feel full so you don't overeat, and helps protect against colon cancer. Clinical Metacore offers a remarkably easy (and tasty!) way to get a whopping 15 grams of healthy fiber into your diet on a daily basis.
Number 2: More and more nutritionists are putting "probiotics" on their short list of the most important health-promoting supplements you can take. Probiotics help support a healthy gut, contributing to better digestion, assimilation of nutrients, and a stronger immune system. Clinical Metacore contains a whopping 3 billion probiotics from the important families of lactobacillus and bifidobacterium.
Number 3:
Clinical Metacore also contains over a gram of plant-based omegas, not to mention 5 grams of protein. And because of all the fiber, it's as low glycemic as you can get. Plus it only has 100 calories.
Number 4: Best of all Clinical Metacore tastes great. It comes in four flavors. The cacao bean and cinnamon chai are out of this world. And while I'm personally not a huge fan of the berry vanilla, thers love it. (I'm looking forward to trying the vanilla bean as well- I'll let you know what I think.)
You can try these in single serving sizes, which are also terrific for travel. Try a few and see which you like best then get the large size of that flavor. Or trust me- you can't go wrong with the Chai or the Cacao!
Along with Barlean's Greens, this is my new "daily drink." When you try it, you'll see why."

This is just plain awful. I can't believe you are ripping uneducated people off like this.

Really glad to see you start carrying Clinical Metacore (or any of Innate Response's products). It's my daily drink as well, and frankly it's the best meal replacement drink I have found in over 20 years.
(I like the Berry Vanilla quite a bit, but I agree the Cacao and Cinnamon Chai are the best.)
So, great addition. Love that you are carrying it. Now start carrying more Designs for Health (one of the best supplement brands I've ever used)!
Keep on keepin' on.

I am surprised you like this Clinical Metacore as it contains evaporated cane juice (sugar the enemy!) I do not take ANY product with sugar! there is NO need to have it! too many alternatives these days!
you're right of course- but my thinking is this: tiny (really) amount of cane juice to make a very very healthy drink palatable, is OK with me. I realize not everyone agrees with me, but this seems to me a question of "fight the big battles"- getting 20% of your calories daily from High fructose corn syrup is a very different thing from getting 2 or 3 grams of cane juice along with your 15 grams of fiber, probiotics and 5 grams of protein. But that's just my thinking- i respect totally your right to feel differently

I think both comments are very important. Personally, I like to avoid sugar as much as possible and my taste buds adjusted to my morning drink so that I think it tastes great. However, my dad would tell you that he cannot imagine keeping it down ... for a while I used to try and make him change. Well, I learned that his health is benefited much more by making for him healthy things that are palatable. That way he gets his nutrients in instead of beginning to believe that healthy foods must taste bad. This of course does not mean that I think we should use HFCS, refined sugars, or artificial preservatives, but there are plenty of sweet things that are not harmful for our health when used properly and within a healthy diet(like agave, stevia leaf, honey, grape juice, etc...). best regards, D. Sales
excellent, wise and diplomatic comment!
thanks!

9 grams of sugar in one sitting is not for me. Too bad. Maybe they can lose the sugar in a future reformulation.
