Frequently Asked Questions about:

Carbs Away Shake

What is the difference between Carbs Away Shake and Soy Miracle Ultimate Shake?
Carbs Away Shake is a meal replacement that is designed for people who want a low carbohydrate, high protein supplement. For best weight loss results, it should be combined with Carbs Away Plus and Dr. Earl Mindell's Ultimate Weight Loss Plan.

In fact, 25 grams of soy protein, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease.

Body muscle mass weighs more than body fat, so how does one lose weight using Carbs Away Shake?
In any weight loss plan, the number of inches lost is a much better indicator of success than the number of pounds lost. Many people will find that they lose both.

What is a complete protein?
Even though there are 8 essential amino acids, there are actually 20 amino acids needed by the body. A complete protein supplies all 20 of the amino acids. Whey protein isolate provides all 20 of these amino acids in a balance that is ideal for the growth, maintenance, and repair of the human body.

I know that Carbs Away Shake is lactose free, but isn’t whey a dairy product or bi-product?
Carbs Away Shake contains 100% dairy, yet the whey protein isolate has been separated from the lactose. Through a patented cold-filtration process, all of the sugar is used and only the isolated protein remains. This is why it is called whey protein isolate. Whey contains a lot of lactose (milk sugar) and only 4% protein. Whey protein isolate contains 90% protein.

If there is no added sugar in Carbs Away Shake, where do the carbohydrates come from?
Many natural ingredients contain natural sugars. With just one gram per serving, this is an exceptionally low carbohydrate content. No sugar is added to this product.

Is the Carbs Away Shake an animal free or vegan product?
No. Carbs Away Shake contains dairy. The whey protein isolate has been separated from the lactose through a patented cold-filtration process. All of the sugar is used and only the isolated protein remains. This is why it is called whey protein isolate.

How does Carbs Away Shake help build and retain muscle mass?
Carbs Away Shake contains high quality whey protein, which the body uses to replenish and repair its muscle cells that are broken down during exercise.

What makes the whey absorb faster into the system with Carbs Away Shake?
The cold-filtration processing method yields a protein of exceptionally high biological value, digestibility, and absorption. This cannot be said of products that use lesser quality whey protein concentrates.

How does whey protein isolate help support amino acids into the muscle?
Proteins are made of amino acids. They must be completely broken down into their amino acids and absorbed into the blood stream in order to get into the muscle cells. No protein is better absorbed than isolate. Therefore, more amino acids are available to the muscle cells.
