nasty, but works!

for some reason, it keeps the pounds off me and fulfills many of my nutritional needs...but it's not the best-tasting drink by far! slimfast tastes a whole lot better.

Zoic Protein Smoothie Recipe

2008-05-10
I call it a "protein shake" because it makes me feel like one of those super-healthy people I see at the gym doing cardio for hours on end. Also it reminds me of when Jerry asks George if he wants a protein shake while Newman is waiting outside his door. Only Seinfeld nerds like me will get that reference. Anyway, I recently discovered Zoic (thank you Hungry Girl!) and I love it! I mean it doesn't taste wonderful, like I want to drink 4 in a day, but it is pretty tasty. And if it did taste wonderful I totally would be drinking 4 in a day and that would not be good. I buy both the chocolate and vanilla Zoic, but I'm partial to the chocolate but only because I think it mixes up into a more milkshake-y drink when blended. Here's what I do. I put 5 or 6 ice cubes into a blender, 2 or 3 tablespoons of Wheatgerm (it's a *superfood* that every nutritionist says you should have), a tablespoon of Splenda (not always, just sometimes), a whole frozen banana (broken into a few pieces so it blends quicker, I just buy fresh bananas at the store, peel them when they're ripe and freeze them), and a can of chocolate Zoic. Blend it for a minute or 2 and enjoy! I think it's the best way to have a Zoic, but I do drink them by themselves on days when I'm in a hurry. They are good by themselves but they do take a little getting used to I think. I also like to do the same thing as above only substitute a handful of frozen strawberries for the bananas and a can of french vanilla Zoic instead of chocolate.

Wow! I love this stuff!

It's hard to believe something this delicious has 21 grams of protein, no added sugar and only 110 calories. I like the Belgian chocolate a little better, but both the chocolate and vanilla are great. I drink 3 to 4 cans a day, and I really have to watch it or I'd drink twice that much. Every time I pass the refrigerator, I stop for a swig or two and it keeps me feeling full. I've lost 15 pounds since I started drinking Zoic about six weeks ago. I wish they could make it with a little less sodium (it has 230 mg per can), but this is still a super product.

Good taste!

I think this product tastes good. It has a bit of an after taste, but not as bad as some of those other protein drinks. I would buy it again.

Zoic nutrition drink

I at first was going to send it back before trying it, but then I changed my mind. Today I tried it for the first time and couldn't even finish the can. I found it awful. So now I have a case of a drink that I can't tolerate.

It's a Protein Drink, NOT a shake

2008-07-24
I would actually give this product a rating of 4.5 instead of a 4.0. If you keep in mind that this drink is NOT a thick and creamy shake, but simply a refreshing high protein, low calorie, low carb, low sugar DRINK, then this DRINK is the bomb. If you're the type of person who is finicky and has set unrealistic taste expectations for many things, then you won't like this drink, either. Let's face it. High calorie, high fat foods taste great, but this drink can't be put in the same group for evaluation. Evaluate it for what it is...a healthy choice. If you're the type person who's main objective is to make better choices for what goes into your body, then this drink IS for you. The NEW guidelines for healthy living has bumped up the daily required protein grams for a woman to 80 grams per day and 100 grams for a man. This drink would definitely help you achieve those numbers without the unnecessary calories, carbs, fat and consequences.

My favorite nutrition suppliment

What's not to like. This great tasting, low calorie, high quality protein snack / meal replacement is perfect for nutrition on the go for anyone. This is especially if you want to cut down on empty sugar calories which makes other products taste sweeter but usually with twice the calories. I drink 1 to 2 cans a day to control my appetite, so I don't gorge myself with a large high calorie meal. ZOIC is not just for dieters, but is great for anyone that exercises and needs extra muscle building protein. The only problem is it's sometimes hard to find in stores, and when they do have it, chocolate (my favorite) is often sold out. So check it out for yourself and compare lables with other "meal replacement" products. I have absolutly no affiliation with this company, and this is simply my opinion.

If You Like "Chocolate Water" Enjoy

I've been a user of Slim-Fast Low-Carb and Atkins shakes. Seeing that these were only 110 calories, and had good nutritional stats, I thought I'd try them. They taste as if someone mixed cocoa and artificial sweetener with water - no thickness, no mouthfeel. I cannot imagine having one of these shakes for lunch and feeling satisfied - they wouldn't even qualify in my book as a lunchtime beverage. Yuk!

A winning pair

Pair a ZOIC with a GNU bar (available on amazon) for breakfast or lunch and be AMAZED at how your hunger is suppressed for hours and hours. Pairing 21 grams of protein and 12 grams of fiber can't be beat!

Excellent protein drink!

Love this drink! I workout and use this drink as a protein source almost daily. I love that it is both low in calories and low glycemic. I like both flavors (vanilla and chocolate) but if I could only choose one...I'd have to pick chocolate (chocolate IS a girl's best friend!).
I have also used this as a midday as a satisfying snack. My favorite part is that its ready to drink...all I have to do is grab it and go!
