My first shipment

The products arrived 4 days after I ordered them, which was incredibly faster than expected.  That day, I tried a shake comprised only of Reliv Now and Innergize! Orange, mixed with 12 oz. of water, since each can said to mix with 6 oz.  It was too watery, but it didn't taste too bad.  I was personally terrified of it, because I am somewhat of a picky eater.  I don't eat meat.  Or vegetables.  Or many fruits.  Or cheese pizza.  Very bizarre eating habits for a 23-year-old college student.  And all of it comes down to the fact that there are very few textures my stomach can handle.  So, yes, I was terrified that after all of this, and quite a substantial investment, it would turn out that I would not like the products.  But they were enjoyable.

From the next day forward, I drank shakes comprised of Reliv Now, Innergize! Orange, and FibRestore (what's known as the Big 3 nutritional supplements), plus ProVantage, which is more for building muscles and aiding in workouts.  Now, I don't work out on a regular basis, but I do help my grandfather walk, and it's been taking a toll on my back, so I thought it would be a good addition for me.  I've alternated between using water and using milk, and have figured out that 4 products work well in about 8 oz. of either, and adds about 3 oz. in the making.  It is a little chalky, a little gritty, but knot any more than the crushed ice in most smoothies I've had.  Plus, the combination of Orange, Pineapple, and two kind of neutral tastes, plus milk makes for a really interesting flavor that I'm really enjoying.  Not bad for a guy who barely likes anything.
