Because there was a little interest in this product yet not much information about it, I decided to purchase some and review. I regret but I did have to order from the "Factory", something I would have rather not done, but I couldn't find another source (feel free to pm me or let me know where there is another one). In any event, this is not to promote or give any opinion on the manufacturer, but the product itself.

The flavoring used I believe is vanilla although I cannot remember exactly what I picked (if any at all). One thing I noticed was the mixing was not good. I use a hand held mixer that is pretty powerful and has no trouble with protein, oats, creatine, glycerol mono, leucine etc. but the Rice Oligodextrin (RO) clumped quite a bit and left tiny white balls floating on top of the protein. They still went down easily but I couldn't help but notice that it didn't mix nicely into one combined liquid.

The texture reminds me of micellular casein from TP, without the BSL flavoring (don't know if that has anything to do with texture). It's a very chalky type powder that did smell quite nice. It's not flaky or messy at all, but sort of a packed tightly powder. The taste was a little sweet also, sort of like dextrose but not that powerful of a sugar taste.

The reason for the low score in price is because for one, I didn't find another supplier of RO so I have nothing to really compare it to, and second if I am to compare it to oats, or oat flour which is my normal carb method, it doesn't come close. It is more expensive per lbs. of RO then any oat combination I could find.

I will update every now and then on my results of using RO, since this is a review after basically my first dosage. I am cutting at the moment and would like to see if this is superior, equal to or inferior to using my normal oats. I plan to use the remainder of the product for PWO, MRP's and if I need extra carbs in a protein shake throughout the day.

Your forgiven

It's a complex carb source that I'm using with PWO shakes, MRP's and other general times when more carbs are needed. I am a regular user of oats (thanks Pure) but found a thread about this ingredient and became interested. I ordered some, and thought I would use it/review it.

Just want to add a few more thoughts about this product. I have shaken, mixed and blended this stuff and I swear it will not break up. It mostly forms into little white balls (clumps) floating at the top of my shake. I can still drink it and they don't taste bad, but it's kind of annoying to chew your carbs with your protein. I am using it in PWO shakes and MRP's for the moment. So far, besides the mixing issue, everything seems to be good.
