Sustagen Everyday Questions & Answers

I mix mine with Almond milk & love it.......

Seriously, I don't use the product anymore. You should try Up & Go Protein Energise. I believe it has less sugar and more protein!

But the Up & Go contains gluten so Sustagen is still one of the best options for those who can’t tolerate wheat/gluten.

No, that would be terrible. Sustagen is fine as it is, both for nourishment and taste.

Can I take it more than once a day

The directions recommend twice a day

I mix it with milo all the time, not bad at all just extra sugar

maximum 2 per day

Not that I know of. I think you would be looking at Vitamins then.

Yes, and it tastes great! Use a shaker and it's just like a milkshake, only a little more nutritious.

No, sustagen is not an energy drink, so nothing that will make your heart race. It’s mainly made up of proteins, vitamins etc, as a good meal replacement or after a workout/physical activity. Not good to eat or drink much before bed though or at least an hour before.

Can you mix diabetic sustagan in the morning and drink it at night

Hi, I have double checked with Nestle HealthScience and it is recommended that 2 servings a day should be maximum. So that's 3 scoops in water or milk twice a day. Milk can also be used to increase nutritional value, but keep in mind fat content in milk. Perhaps stick to low fat milk in this case. There are other options, including hospital formula and Sustagen Active, so worth checking them out in your local store. I hope this helps and you can also get further advice by calling 1800 671 628. As mentioned, I use Sustagen Sport after training and I have noticed significant improvements in recovery, muscle mass and overall and tone. I also use it sometimes as a meal replacement or on the go and it's great.

Change to unsweetened Almond milk, just so good.....I lived on Sustagen milkshakes with a banana, Graviola (soursop) fruit & icecream, when I had cancer & that was 13years ago, & still have it every morning without the fruit now, but eat fruit separately as well.....I am now 80.....

If you are talking about Sustagen Sport, I only have it after training or exercise. It is also good after a strenuous day of gardening or other activity, or even before, so only once a day. It is also good as a substitute for a meal, but I would suggest only once per day maximum, as it is not a substitute for a balanced diet.

I wouldn't suggest "boiling water" as this could. It is recommended either cold or warm, so that said, I would recommend it in warmed up low fat milk for added taste and nutrition value.

Oh no, sustagen is just an instant energy giving food to pick you up instantly due to fatigue or hunger pang as this drink has all the necessary vitamins to pick you up and give you the energy you need there and then due to fatigue and tiredness. Mix four teaspoon full of sustagen mix with milk

either full cream or skim does not hurt but gives you the bounce back when you need it that's all. won't make you fat and wont build your muscles you need gym work out for that.

haa.. dutch chocokate is the favourite flavour. Hope this answers your curiosity!.

Hi if you want to build muscle and fat you need to visit the health food store to get the necessary vitamins and muscle building gym food. I assume you are real skinny and needs help to build muscle and far ... vist your local gym and seek advise from them. hope this answers your question.

yes, does gives you the runs but does not hurt as long as you are not sweating and you feel fine. the runs is probably good for letting out all the greasy food you have been taking its like taking fat blaster tablets where all the grease and oil one consumes from junk food gets flushed out helps to loose weight . The body is rejecting those unwanted oily stuff you ate.

Oh dear you better go see the doctor because 7 days is bit much and again if you are not feeling sick from purging so much why worry helps you to loose weight I assume you are an overweight or needs loosing. Importantly you are not feeling sick or sluggish then this diarrhrea does help you to loose weight but on the other hand if you are a thin skinny person then go see the doctor or take imodium to stop diarrhea.

7 times a day to the toilet is not bad diarrhoea and may not be considered as diaries by doctors

Yeah Iam experiencing this with having upset stomach and a lot of diarrhoea and Iam not even over went I weight 55kilo I’m trying to gain it matter fact just can’t seem to have appetite or swallow the foods.

Im thinking I should go see a doctor
