CUSTOMER REVIEWS

What our patients say:

I love this protein powder. It provides great nutrient value. Sometimes I'll have a "shake" in the morning before a workout and then have another one at night instead of dinner. We've taken it when we travel, which is excellent for those times when you maybe don't want to eat out, or when you want a little something that has some nutrient value. We mix this with some kind of "greens" powder mix as well. It tastes fine with water. We use coconut water which we really like with it

We have been using SP Complete in the morning in our shakes for about 2 years now. We use 1 cup of water, 2 scoops of SP Complete with 1 cup of frozen fruit, 1 TBS Flaxseed oil and 1 package Stevia sweetner blend it together and it makes for a great breakfast. Gives you a great start to your day. Has a great taste, much better than some of the protein powders purchased in the stores.
