AMPLE K Ketogenic Formula Review

What’s Inside The Product?

As we mentioned above, Ample K reached out to noted diet specialist Dr. Dominic D’Agostino for help in formulating their meal in a bottle, and the results speak for themselves. There are no artificial sweeteners that can often be a source of hidden carbs, no genetically modified organisms (GMOs), no soy and no gluten. Ample K comes in its own bottle, but when you get it, it’s still in powder form. As such, all you have to do is decide what liquid to mix it with, add that liquid to the bottle, shake vigorously and enjoy.

As of this writing, it’s only available in a single flavor. But that flavor (vanilla) is nice and creamy and goes down easily you’ll probably find yourself hankering for seconds.

The Breakdown:

From a nutritional standpoint each Ample K shake is composed of:

• ​73% healthy fats including macadamia, coconut and sunflower oils.
• ​14% grass-fed whey protein with bits of egg white and pea protein as well.
• ​7% fiber prebiotics from chicory, tapioca, and acacia.
• ​6% wheat grass, barley grass, and organic greens.

​​​Each shake contains up to 40 billion CFUs (colony forming units) that spread throughout your digestive system, pushing out the bad bacteria and laying the groundwork for a more efficient and effective absorption of nutrients. You have a choice of either a 400 or 600-calorie meal with each one in their own ready-to-mix bottle that’s made of BPA-free, recycled plastic. It’s the kind of nutritional supplement that simply wasn’t available to keto-diet pioneers, and we’re glad it’s here now to make life for today’s keto dieter simpler and far more convenient.

Ample K Ingredients

The primary ingredients of Ample K are coconut oil, macadamia nut oil, and grass-fed whey protein isolate, which are responsible for the macro profile of the meal. Other ingredients include medium chain triglycerides and sunflower lecithin for extra fat, acacia fiber, tapioca dextrin, and chicory root fiber for additional carbs, and egg whites and pea for additional protein.

The meal also includes natural flavors, dried honey, cinnamon, sea salt, lemon juice powder, monk fruit extract, and stevia extract for taste, as well as organic wheatgrass, organic chlorella, and organic barley grass for added nutrition.

Additionally, the meal contains 40 billion probiotic bacteria from six strains, including Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus paracasei, Bifidobacterium lactis, Bifidobacterium infantis, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, and Bacillus coagulans. Finally, the meal includes added vitamins and minerals, as well as omega-3 chia seed extract.

Do Supplements Like This Have Real Value?

A lot of people trying to adhere to the keto diet find themselves bombarded with products that claim to be keto-friendly. They look good and have plenty of slick marketing behind them, but they’re actually loaded with hidden carbs in the form of artificial sweeteners intended to bring the taste more in line with what Westerners have come to expect. Those with blood sugar issues need to be particularly vigilant since many producers mask their actual sugar content behind ingredients like fructose, which is just a fancy name for fruit sugar.

Many alleged low-carb snacks are also loaded with salt, which is another ingredient used to make a product more palatable to Western tastes. Certainly, snacks like that are of little or no real use to anyone wishing to stick to their keto guns.

The Ample K Difference…

A product like Ample K though is based on sound scientific research and provides only the things you’ll need to enable you to get through the day while being keto-compliant and with energy to spare.

It does none of the fancy footwork around the periphery of ketogenics that some do and instead seeks ways to enable and enhance your low-carb lifestyle by building on advances in nutrition pioneered by people like Dr. D’Agostino.

How To Use Ample K

Using Ample K is a simple and straightforward process. The BPA-free bottle comes pre-measured, eliminating the need for measuring cups or scales. To prepare, remove the lid from the bottle, fill it three-quarters of the way with water, and shake vigorously for 30 seconds. The shake can be consumed immediately or sipped over several hours. If the shake is consumed gradually, be sure to periodically shake it to ensure that none of the ingredients settle.

For optimal results, use chilled water and refrigerate the shake if it will not be consumed immediately. Ample K can be consumed at any time when a quick and easy keto meal is needed. For example, the shake can be consumed as a grab-and-go breakfast or after a workout to aid in recovery.

The Bottom Line: Should You Buy It?

We found Ample K to be extremely convenient. The bottles can be easily stuffed into a backpack for a day out hiking or frolicking at the beach. They also provided what felt like a noticeable boost in energy levels during the latter stages of workouts as advertised, although it’s difficult to quantify if the effect was genuinely physiological or primarily wishful thinking. The high-fat, low-carb combination of natural ingredients and prebiotics left us feeling light, clean and ready for just about anything. The vanilla flavor, however, while by no means bad, was not as tasty as we had hoped and seemed to lean a bit heavily on cinnamon. But that’s nitpicking.
