It looks like this includes the new Oreo smoothies too.

A large shake (600mL) from Maccas runs around 2100kJ…a Boost "original" size (610mL) smoothie runs around 1900kJ. For reference, 600mL of full-sugar Coca Cola is approximately 1000kJ.
Just had a large smoothie - apparently around 1700kJ, but it's more of a meal replacement rather than a side drink
The have the ingredients of drinks on their website. e.g a original(610 ml) mongo magic has 78.5g sugars with 1820 kj energy. https://www.boostjuice.com.au/drinks/mango-magic/
weird how I didn't read 78.5g sugars, I read "diabetes" instead
If you have Boost as snack that's ok, if you have it as healthy food then good luck.
If the drink is mainly fruit juice, it will be mainly sugars. If it is a vegetable juice (do they do these?), it will be lower in sugar.
Man is a carnivore by evolution. Oxalates and salilates are protective plant poisons in almost all fruits, veges, nuts, beans etc, and I guess all forms of carbs are not our natural diet.
So I look at smoothies and so many other products as potential mild poison, which most people can handle ok.
Grass fed, healthy animal meats, well prepared, are probably the only foods all humans can eat throughout their life without causing disease. That's just what I've figured out over the years.@[Deactivated]: This sounds fairly pseudo-sciencey.
Research indicates that eating a lot of red meat is likely to increase your chances of cancer based on a lot of recent research, so not sure your claim stands.
@DingoBilly: If you come across someone suffering from Celiac disease, CFS, Crohn's, excema, psoriasis, thousands of skin, health/energy, gut diseases, consider suggesting a Carnivore only elimination diet for a month.
Too much meat/protein is apparently bad, but man can live off of just red meat, or just chicken eggs for decades and still be healthy (some body builders do). Meaning we have introduced so many foods into our diets that we are not evolved to eat which cause many harm.
I fully agree with your pseudo-sciencey comment. But a lot of people have benefitted from Carnivore only elimination diet. That includes me after 25 years of being in agony up until last November. Plants are poison to me and many others, yet doctors know zilch about this.
100% agree they can be high sugar, however there are other options. I just had the Pure Eden which is 926kJ normally then I took the banana out as it's plenty sweet enough without it. Still $5.
Are these health drinks
Processed fruit = same as drinking soft drink as far as sugar intake so it's junk food.
In fruit juices the product typically contains 5 to 10 times as much sugar as consuming 1 piece of fruit.
Think of eating an orange.
Now think of how many oranges you squeeze for 1 glass of orange juice.
And now think about whether you feel like consuming more after eating one whole orange or one glass of orange juice.
This is a ongoing deal, every Tuesday its $5
Completely false. Last few weeks it was a select 4 drinks. This is all drinks.
Not sure why you got the neg. I get the reminder most (I'll say most because I don't care to keep a tally) weeks.
Don't ongoing "deals" normally end up in forums?
Not sure, but thnx for +
It used to be $5 for all drinks,but auna says it was for just 4 drinks :o
$5? Yeah now they are just $2 too expensive.
Thought pearl milk tea was expensive, these things are on another level.
I will get inundated with negs but I personally find boost overrated crap
No. They are nice but overrated. At $3 they will selling like millions each day.
The mint oreo tasted funky. Would not recommend.
Full of sugar. Nuddie that is 5 $ for 2 litres claims to be using only fresh fruits.
Ok now I can easily skull this down with my free quarter pounders instead of coke…. wait doesn’t this have more suger!?
I can almost guarantee the people complaining about this not being healthy are not healthy. Either way I fell for the 5 dollar drink.
It’s true it’s not healthy, it’s says 100% fat free but having 18 tea spoons of suger doesn’t count. They claim boost is worse than a Big Mac
But people still buy it, makes me think why boost is even so popular still
.
https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/amp.news.com.au/lifestyle/he…Because sugar tastes good!
Because of the eye candy behind the bar.
You should ask why sugar is so popular among humans.
Why, apart from taste?
QP in my left hand, Juice in my right hand and 2 original KFC burgers on my chest.
and cardiologist on my phone
And ambulance on speed dial.
Pisses me off that the app can't accept gift cards.
Are these health drinks or just sugar with flavor? Are the ingredients available? Example % of sugar.
EDIT: Seems my suspicion was right.
"An analysis by consumer group Choice of 95 drinks from outlets such as Boost Juice, Donut King, Wendys, Gloria Jean's and New Zealand Natural has found 81 of them are high in sugar."
… "some having the equivalent of up to 31 teaspoons of sugar."
