 Great Product for a Limited AudienceMar 11, 2008
By Wesley Mullins
This is not a weight loss product and it's not for the casual athlete; the shake's target audience is the kind of person who needs to ingest 400 quick calories and continue their workout. Most average people are happy if they actually burn 400 calories in a session, so drinking this shake would negate any grueling gains made atop an elliptical machine.
Pro athletes, marathon runners, weekend warriors. These are the kind of people who'll benefit from Gatorade's new products. Those trying to gain weight will also see results, as the nutrition is almost the same as drinking a slim-fast and eating a protein bar at the same time. The 40/20/8 ratio of carbs/protein/fat closely mirrors the suggested standards of many weight loss programs but will be off limits for anyone on a low carb diet.
The most obvious benefit to the high calories is the taste. This is one yummy shake and one that few people would identify as "healthy". Of course, if the average person consumes this product without exerting a tremendous amount of effort in the gym, they won't consider the pounds they pack on as an improvement in their health.

Good but not quite as awesome as the vanilla flavorApr 14, 2009
By Nathan Beauchamp
"ConsumerAdvocate"
I really like these Gatorade nutrition shakes. The Strawberry flavor is not quite as good as the vanilla in my opinion, but both have the same nutritional content, so that's purely a preference and has nothing to do with the quality of the shake. I view these as more meal replacement shakes than traditional protein shakes. They have a quality portion of protein (20g) but they're not intended to be pure protein shakes for a body builder. They taste good, are reasonably filling, and can give you a boost of energy after a good workout or between meals when you're tempted to eat things you'll regret later. I keep some at my office for just that purpose!
The can is made of steel not aluminum which means that the can will not accidentally open or get punctured if you let it kick around in your gym bag.
For a casual snack, filler, this suits me!Mar 28, 2008
By (Rizzo) Rizzuto
For decades, Gatorade is synonomous with sports, athletes, performance, health, hydration and nutrients and vitamins. If your intention is to use it as a higher level like sports training, performance, endurance, energy, etc., then this is the product for you. If your level is for just fitness and exercise, then this can only be a great enhancement.
The shakes provided by Gatorade are not thick, so it's not quite the "shake" feel, athough it is very tasty being that it is specially made for athletes, etc.
For me, interested in only fitness and exercise, I will maximize with the protein benefit as a quick meal enhancement. I like the low gram of fat, and no trans fat. For others who need the specified amount of nutrients, this is sufficient.
My intention is not to supplment my health such as an experienced athlete, but this strawberry is tasty, just like the vanilla. I like it cold, but it is fine not being that cold.
For the serious athlete, the ingredients may work for you....for the casual snack and protein benefit, I can enjoy it. Rizzo
Strawberry milk so you stay healthyMar 21, 2008
By Pen Name?

This one tastes like strawberry milk. 380 calories in each can, with a wide array of vitamins and 20g of protein.
It's not puddingy like the vanilla flavor, and I think it's a bit better.
It's good to have for the active person, to make sure you aren't unhealthily losing weight, but keeping strong.
A great supplement to an active lifestyleMar 21, 2008
By Stephen J. Carlson
The Gatorade Strawberry Nutrition shake was much better than I expected. It has a rich, creamy taste that is actually good. The label describes this shake as a bridge between meals to achieve a balanced diet throughout the day.
Although this shake probably won't fill you up for a full meal, it works well to satisfy your hunger carvings in place of a light snack. It is enriched with lots of vitamins, such as vitamins C, E, and A. The can is very high in protein at 20g. This drink is a good alternative to unhealthy junk food snacks.
