Ora Organic Natural Pre Workout Powder - Raspberry Lemonade Flavor- Provides Jitter Free Energy, Focus, Hydration, & Endurance - Vegan, Certified Organic, Soy, Dairy, & Gluten Free, 20 Servings

This has become my new go-to for preworkout. I used to use a variety of preworkout formualas bought online or from my local nutrition shop, but after becoming more aware of the ways that processed ingredients and additives affected my body, I knew I needed to make a switch that would help my body instead of hurting it.This is the MINT. The flavor genuinely tasted like borthole, but I found that the clarity and endurance boost it gave me were well worth the few seconds of unsavory flavor. I'm talking a full workout routine with NO crash, NO jitters, NO itchy feelings. My roommate also tried it and was very impressed by the "clean" feeling. I'm super pumped (hehe gym pun) to have found a preworkout that works for me and makes me feel good about the things I'm putting into my body.

I would have to say this is the worst tasting pre workout supplement I have ever had. It does give me the energy it takes to get through a semi decent workout. But if you are looking for something to get you up in the morning and go all out.. this is not for you. The mixture with water is absolutely terrible. It is super clumpy. I tried a blending it and even though it gets the clumps out, all of the supplement sinks to the bottom. So you are constantly stirring and trying to gulp it down as fast as you can but it taste bad. I gave it one star because the product is truly organic. So if you are really strict about what goes into your body and you don’t care about the taste, then it is worth it.I bet it would taste better with almond milk, but that is too heavy for me in the A.M. I would say their protein powder is great 😊. Anyway, this product falls very short. There are much better pre workouts on the market.

I have been using this product faithfully for a couple of weeks now. I workout in the morning and it provides a sufficient and noticeable boost of energy, without being too much. Yes, I paid $35 and it was half-full. It is worth it! I disagree with a lot of people when they say that the taste is horrible and beet-like. I taste the pomegranate more than the beet, and lets just say that I don't love it, but I can't say that I hate it either. Its like a watered down healthy version of fruit punch. The only negative thing I have to say is that it does not completely dissolve in the recommended 8 ounces of water. (I use a shaker cup). Obviously I love the ingredients and I do not get jittery, nor do I experience a crash. I get minimal sleep and sometimes I consume this during the day to wake me up (the back of the container advises that this product can be used as as an energy drink). I am definitely going to subscribe.

I have been taking this pre-workout for about 2 years now and I swear by it. Now it is my only caffeine intake, I completely gave up coffee because this gives such a more natural energy boost with no crash later in the day. It's also easier on the stomach than coffee is. Therefore I drink this every morning whether or not I am working out. The only bad thing is that they got rid of the matcha flavor which was the best. But the pink lemonade tastes good as well. I tried beet pomegranate and unfortunately it tastes too much like cough syrup for me.

So, I want to be fair and mention that Ora stands by their products and they immediately contacted me after my initial review and they refunded my purchase once I explained that I was not happy with this supplement. For this, I increased the rating by a star. It was great to see that they were willing to do anything and everything to help satisfy their customer base. Good work Ora :). And, yes I am a real customer.To be 100% clear, I have been using this product for approx. 2 weeks and I am rating this pre-workout supplement on the following:1) Taste (1 star) - not great and if mixing with water, is extremely difficult to get/keep down. I love the idea of using all natural, organic, etc.. ingredients but both my girlfriend and I were unable to consistently drink or use this product when mixing just with water. We even tried mixing it in fruit smoothies and/or other fruit drinks but were still surprised at how strong the actual taste was. Also, drinking fruit smoothies/fruit drinks before the gym was rough on the stomach especially if this isn't part of your everyday routine.2) Cost (3 stars) - a little pricey but not terrible. I am willing to spend more for an all natural product.3) Effectiveness (2 stars) - just ok. I did NOT notice a drastic difference when using this pre-workout supplement vs. not using it.I was hoping to experience an overall increase in energy throughout the workout as opposed to the rush or jolt feeling you get with other pre-workout supplements. I have taken C4 in the past and yes there is a noticeable difference between the two.Ultimately, I try not to base an entire review solely on taste (especially if its an all natural product) but we had a hard time enjoying this pre-workout supplement because of the strong flavor. If you can deal with the taste and/or the strong possibility of having to use a fruit smoothie/fruit drink before your workout then great. Otherwise, you might want to look elsewhere for an all natural pre-workout supplement.
