FAQ

For those who have been prescribed Reason’s Nutrition Beverage by their healthcare provider, please follow their directions on consumption. 
Note on MCTs: is rich, calorie dense product with high amount of beneficial Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT). Some people, who are unaccustomed to consuming high amount of MCT– may get an upset stomach consuming large amount of Reason beverage for the first time. These symptoms resolve after 30−45 minutes. With regular usage of the product, symptoms tend to fade away completely.
If you notice any of these symptoms, we have few expert tips to minimize these effects:
  • Start with small servings: For very sensitive stomachs, we advise to start with no more than 2-3 (1 ounce) sips of our beverage. Take this twice daily and gradually double the dose over next week or two.
  • Do not take on an empty stomach: Start with a cracker or small snack prior to consuming our beverage. If that’s not possible, drink 4 ounces of warm water before and after.
  • Hydrate yourself: Dehydration increases stomach cramps and discomfort. You may also dilute the product as needed with ice cube of water.
  • Serve chilled: Our beverage can be consumed at room temperature, however for the most pleasant experience, it is recommended that you consume it chilled or with ice.

Our Nutrition Beverage can be used as a meal replacement so long as you take a daily multivitamin supplement. Our beverage provides all the needed protein, calories and fats (macronutrients) but does not contain all vitamins and minerals (micronutrients) people require in a day. We recommend people using our product as a meal replacement take multivitamin tablets (rather than specific vitamins and minerals) to ensure that all the daily requirements are met. Additionally, people undergoing certain chemotherapy should not take certain vitamins and antioxidants. Reason Beverage does not have any added vitamins or minerals so that it may not interfere with such treatments. This makes Reason’s Nutrition Beverage safe to consume during chemotherapy or radiation therapy, however if you are going through one of these therapies, we recommend you flag it with your healthcare provider.
