It’s interesting to note this little bit at the bottom of Promax Lean

PLEASE NOTE: Promax Lean contains many proven active ingredients, but are not weight loss shakes. The protein shakes are a lean definition support designed to help you get results as part of a balanced weight loss or definition plan”

So Promax Lean is not a weight loss shake but does contain weight loss ingredients. All the weight loss ingredients are indeed proven and very common.

Taste
I had the banana flavour and it’s really nice, nothing outstanding but very enjoyable to drink.

Price
A 1.2kg tub with 20 servings in will cost you upwards of £35 if you shop around, so it’s very pricey.

Side Effects
None

Results
Well they were right it’s not a weight loss shake. I didn’t notice any visible weight loss or toning and the scales didn’t budge much either. It is a high protein (38g’s is pretty good) tasty shake though. It’s a shame that it prices itself out of the market really, this could be a daily protein source but not at nearly £2.00 a serving. The ingredient list is solid and the dosage of weight loss ingredients is very good with the exception of the rather mean serving of 25mg of Green Tea.

I do like the disclaimer on the tub though at least Maxinutrition knows what it is. I’m sure if you used this for long enough you would notice some muscle definition coming through but at the price they are charging no one is going to find out. 4/10
