Metabolic Cleanse Natural Vanilla Flavor
Douglas Laboratories
Overview
This Metabolic Cleanse product offers a broad spectrum of vitamins, minerals, and supportive compounds aiming to aid detoxification and metabolic health. While it provides excellent doses of many micronutrients and a substantial amount of protein, the proprietary blend for several key detox ingredients makes it impossible to confirm their effectiveness due to undisclosed individual dosages. The L-Glutamine dose is significantly lower than research-backed amounts for its primary benefits.
The Good
Provides a substantial 17g of complete protein (Rice and Pea Protein) per serving, supporting metabolic functions and satiety.
Rich in an extensive array of vitamins and minerals at highly effective, and often generous, dosages to fill nutritional gaps and support numerous biochemical pathways.
Includes key amino acids like L-Glutamine (albeit potentially underdosed for some benefits) that support gut health and immune function.
The Bad
Proprietary blend hides specific ingredient dosages, making efficacy assessment difficult for certain components.
L-Glutamine dose (500mg) is below typical effective research doses (5g and above) for most benefits.
Betaine HCl lacks robust clinical trials to support its efficacy as a digestive aid.
Is it for you?
