“So I recently ordered a whole case of 20 bags Jimmy Joys. They arrived in the mail about 5 days later. So far so good. I'm consuming about one meal per day. I'm happy with the very helpful customer support and the product, but one thing I'm less satisfied with are the transportation costs. My costs recently went from 30 to 60 euros. I think customers should have the option to choose how they want their order sent (e.g. express mail, or regular mail) rather than only having one single choice.”
“I've used all the vegan flavors. Makes me feel satisfied and it's really pretty good (except the vanilla, which I didn't like at all). It's easy to make and it keeps well even once I've made it. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to replace or supplement their diet with something healthy and convenient!”
“I've been replacing my work-lunch with Joylent for over a year now with no negative side-effects so far. It defeats hunger longer than regular lunch without making me feel bloated.
The taste: mango is the best, chocolate is just strange, banana and strawberry are the typical artificial flavors, can't stand vanilla. All are too sweet. Pro tip: mix banana or strawberry (2/3) with chocolate (1/3) to milden the artificial taste.
Here's my menu: 3 work weeks, i.e. 15 days of lunch, equal 5 bags (2x mango, 1x chocolate, 1x strawberry, 1x banana):
- Mon: mango
- Tue: strawberry/chocolate
- Wed: banana/chocolate
- Thu: mango
- Fri: strawberry/banana/chocolate
The biggest minus for me is the use of Sucralose as sweetener which might have a negative impact on the intestinal microbiota leading to increased glucose intolerance up to a prestage of diabetes (https://www.nature.com/nature/journal/vaop/ncurrent/pdf/nature13793.pdf), as well as other side-effects of artificial sweeteners like increased appetite etc.
You can always add sweeteners as needed to food, but hardly remove them, so I would really like to see a sweetener-free version of the shake.”
“I wanted to try Jimmyjoy after a friend told me about his experiences using it for a month, and I was not disappointed! The big question for me was, "do you actually feel full after a shake?", and yes, that is definitely the case for me. Great for a quick breakfast or meal on the go, and all the flavours are quite okay and thankfully far from the synthetic and overly sweet flavouring that you find in some protein bars and shakes. I would definitely recommend that you give Jimmyjoy a chance.”
“I really enjoy to switch out one of my meals each day with a Jimmy joy shake, they taste great and I feel stuffed afterwards for at least 3-4 hours (this is the most important aspect). I'm an athletic build 189cm and 92kg”
