Naked Brand Drinks?

Discussion in 'Fitness, Health & Nutrition' started by stonerfriend, Nov 14, 2015.

  1. For years I'd drink two V8's daily to help keep my shits regular and help nourish me. It worked, but I got really tired of the taste of tomato juice and salt water with a hint of ass. I switched to Naked drinks. I'll have one fruit blend in the morning, and one of the "Green Machine" blends in the afternoon. Seems to do the trick. Anyone else have any experience with this particular juice blend?

    They're ok, caught some flak a year or two back for having non organic ingredients when its listed as organic. They fixed that issue though. I prefer bolthouse farms over naked.
     
  3. First let me say this, don't trust any thing! Especially if it's not 100% percent organic. But if it is organic you still have worries like pesticides and other toxic substances they could use to grow it or preserve the self life.

    I do in fact drink naked, I don't really know the history of the company or if it's actually is Organic, but the ingredients look very simple, no gmo's as far as I know, it does say nongmo on the bottle, and contains a good amount of vitamins and minerals... Aslo they are good as shit.... The mango one of my fav, especially before smoking gets you a nice high... But as usual you should make them your self in a blender or juicer with organic material...then you will be winning

    They taste delicious, but make me sick if i drink them on a hot summer day. A bit pricey from what i remember, but a good snack when working. Homemade juice that i used to make with a juicer was the best, made it daily and drank it fresh for full nutrients.
    Apples, lemon, ginger, and cucumber
     
  5. If you're going to drink these smoothies make sure to read the nutrition label..


    Not gonna say Naked is 'bad' for you...but some are loaded with sugar and NO fiber, which is bad....your body will treat it like a soda (your blood sugar will spike and all the sugar will be stored in your body as fat). Naked has Blue Machine and Bolthouse has Blue Goodness & Multi-V Goodness....all have adequate fiber in a serving.


    I drink Bolthouse Blue Goodness, Sambazon Acai, and Bolthous Multi-V Goodness on the regular. If you want to be healthy and don't have time to cut up a bunch of fruit everyday and run it through the juicer & then deal w/ the clean up, these drinks are damn near perfect.
     
  6. I had a blueberry one once. It was good but I'd rather just make my own smoothie or go this one local shop.
     
  7. These taste really good but if your going for health benefits any smoothies like these have destroyed the fibre in the blending process and also some of the nutrients, so having one of these sometimes may not benefit you that much when you factor in the sugar content. Best of sticking with fruit and veg whole if its for health benefits, or maybe try using a nutri bullet to keep the fibre in while blending.
     
  8. i think they're superrr yummy but pricey :( if i was rich i'd drink one every day if i could!!
    it's crazy how much protein is in a bottle of naked juice, amazing :p
    it's a lot of sugar, though. i wouldn't have more than 1 bottle a day unless i'm having a long, physical day.
     
  9. i am drinking the kale naked juice. it has 150 grams of sugar in this bottle. still taste like shit but its better then my normal meat/carb diet thats for sure.
     
  10. Once a week go to the grocery store and buy everything you need for a week of shakes. Kale, fruit, veggies, etc.

    Then take sandwich ziploc bags, and put everything for one shake in a baggie. Make a bunch and then freeze!

    Saves you so much time and money!! And you get to control what goes in it, those naked drinks can be really high in sugar.

    By freezing it you save tons of time, and also it preserves the fruits and veggies for much longer. I used to always buy kale and it would go bad before I could use the whole thing!
     
  11. mighty mango and green machine are the tastiest. used to drink them occasionally on breaks/lunch @ work
     
  12. This keeps shits regular of color Blue!

  13. Shit is expensive and overrated, like muscle milk.
     
  14. Naked and even bolthouse- (which used to be my thing for several months) are alright for something that's on the same shelves as fake juice and soda, but they don't even compare to cold pressed juices. You know the ones that have disease reversing capability. However that being said, those can be unaffordable even for short term use. Best way is to just make juices or even smoothies better than the store bought at home, save a ton while drinking more for less. As well as having the freedom to customize what benefits you most instead of what a company decides sells well. I could go on but point is, don't expect revolutionary results from store bought on-the go drinks unless it's at least made with quality non "filler" ingredients
