Unauthorized Charge on Cards

Once you give this company your credit card or debit card number, they will automatically charge your card and ship new orders to you without your authorization! Be careful. They do not share their company address, phone number or email address in their communications so it is really hard to get hold of them.

If you received a new order/shipment without your specific authorization and you do not want to accept it, you need to refuse he package without opening it and return it through the postal office AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Then ask for a refund to your card. Their number: 1-888-212-0601. Their manager is Chris or Tom.

Unauthorized Charge on Cards

...calories don't add up on the nutrition label...check it out...protein grams = 4 calories, Carbs grams = 4 calories and fat grams = 9 calories...

and they use palatinose which they claim isnt a sugar but it is metabolized just like sugar its a disaccharide ...read on

Isomaltulose (chemical name: 6-0-α-D-glucopyranosyl-D-fructose), also known by the trade name Palatinose, is a disaccharide that is commercially manufactured enzymatically from sucrose via bacterial fermentation. It is a natural constituent of honey and sugar cane and has a very natural sweet taste. It has been used as a sugar substitute in Japan since 1985. It is particularly suitable as a non-cariogenic sucrose replacement.[1]

Isomaltulose is fully absorbed in the small intestine as glucose and fructose. Like sucrose, it is fully digested and provides the same caloric value of approximately 4 kcal/g.

It is low-glycaemic and low-insulinemic. The effect of isomaltulose is that the glucose enters the blood at a slow rate, avoiding high peaks and sudden drops in glucose levels and therefore insulin levels as well. This leads to a more balanced and prolonged energy supply in the form of glucose.[2]

Being low-insulinemic, isomaltulose also supports improved fat oxidation during physical activity as high insulin levels hinder the use of lipids as an energy source. As such, isomaltulose can increase the amount of fat used as energy, thus enhancing performance endurance.[3]

Isomaltulose is tolerated like sucrose and not suitable for people with a pre-existing intolerance to fructose and those who are unable to digest sucrose.
