SlimFast Meal Replacement Shake — DUMP
Munch or Dump rates SlimFast Meal Replacement Shake by Slimfast DUMP — score 17/90.
A lab-built diet shake: maltodextrin, stacked emulsifiers and gums, artificial flavor, and sucralose engineered around isolated milk proteins. NOVA 4 from top to bottom.
Why this verdict
- Maltodextrin plus stacked emulsifiers (mono/diglycerides, soy lecithin) and gums (cellulose gel and gum) - classic ultra-processed NOVA 4 build
- Artificial flavor doing the heavy lifting instead of real cocoa or vanilla
- Sucralose - artificial sweetener your body never evolved to handle
- Isolated milk protein fractions and refined canola oil, not whole food
- Engineered for appetite control, not nourishment
