Why does your Sida Cordifolia (fat burner) only contain 100 capsules compared to your competitors who have 150-200 capsules or more?

This is a very common question. Unlike many of our competitors you need only take 1 capsule twice daily (2 capsules per day) as opposed to 3 to 4 capsules 3 times daily required in other products (approx 12 capsules per day). Despite the smaller dosage our Sida is just as effective and will last you longer; up to approximately 6 weeks.

What sets Reflex Progen apart from other Meal Replacements (MRP’s)

  • Some Products use low cost materials. Magnesium and other meal oxides are unsuitable for the Reflex product range and are not used in Progen.


  • Without using chelated minerals, absorption becomes less effective. We use expensive chelated minerals which are bonded to amino acids as well as the patented technology Bioprene providing bio availability for superior absorption.


  • Not all MRP’s contain slow release Miscellar Casein. We preferentially select our cold processed, ultra filtered whey protein and include micellar casein in the formula.


  • Very few brands use enzymes or pro-biotics. We use Digezyme Enzymes to aid digestion and Lactospore Pro-biotics that provide friendly intestinal bacteria.


  • Some brands don’t use the additional ingredients that really enhance a basic product. We use Anti-oxidants, MSM, Linumlife (flaxseed), Choline and Betaine.

    What is the difference between whey concentrate and whey isolate?

    Whey Protein Concentrate is made using Ultra Filtration technology which effectively removes fat and lactose from sweet dairy whey to make what is commonly termed "whey protein concentrate. Whey Protein Isolate is made using Cross Flow Micro Filtration technology which uses ceramic filtration units with a very fine screen (micro) to further process whey protein concentrate to remove virtually all fat and lactose.

    Why is whey especially good for athletes and bodybuilders?

    It is a very high quality protein; it is a complete protein that contains all of the essential amino acids that your body cannot make. More importantly, it is the richest source of branch chain amino acids (BCAA). BCAA's consist of L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine and L-Valine which are vital for muscle tissue repair and growth; this is one reason why it has become so popular with bodybuilders.
