Melaleuca GC Control - Observation

I am not an advocate of meal-replacement shakes but I am a fan of Melaleuca and they gave me a great deal on their new development of what they call GC Control. By saying "...but it was a great deal" is going against everything I stand for but 1. I'm not perfect and 2. Melaleuca has very few products I am not fans off, so I decided to try.

Here are a few things to know about Melaleuca:
1. These people were authentically 'green' before it was a fad.
2. Calling themselves 'The Wellness Company' is proven in the process of making their products and in-turn eliminating the question of 'what is in the bottles under my kitchen sink"?
3. Products are: Nutrition, Medicines, Beauty, Household, and Bath/Body.
4. Melaleuca is a membership based business. So although I can give you access to the main site you will need to become a member to see more.

Back to my morning!

1 cup of ice
1 Banana
1/2 cup Almond Milk
1/2 scoop of GC Control Creamy Chocolate Fusion

Result: Not bad at all!

Pro: Great prep to a work out and taste like a good chocolate/banana shake.
Con: Product contains soy and milk (which is why I did 1/2 scoop) also contains ingredients I can't pronounce (also against my nutruition lifestyle).
