lady boss lean review - 12 things you need to know
with its fancy pink bag, lady boss lean claims they’ve “cracked the code” on 54 weight-loss ingredients. that seems to be a little overzealous and, just because the code is cracked, does that mean the 2022足球世界杯德国队分组 uses all 54?
the research team was lured in by these claims and others, so they hit the ground running. peer-reviewed journals, expert experience, and user results all led us to the bottom line. here are all the details wrapped up in one concise package.
lady boss lean can be purchased through their official site.
what is lady boss lean?
lady boss lean is a premium protein and vitamin powder made for women from lady boss labs. the revolutionary formula, designed just for women (though the ingredients are not gender-specific in any way), is comprised of daily supplements anyone can find at a local vitamin shop or superstore.
lady boss lean is part of a “complete transformation system” with five steps or, in this case, products. the system works like this:
- step 1: lady boss lean for breakfast.
- step 2: lady boss fuel for workout motivation.
- step 3: lady boss burn to jumpstart metabolism.
- step 4: lady boss greens to support overall wellness.
- step 5: lady boss rest to revitalize.
a quick look at the research into lady boss lean and its ingredients can give us a better look into the product’s ability to cause weight loss.
- cancer medicine – whey protein may be able to improve body composition and muscle strength.
- national institute of health – some multivitamins are made to help with weight loss, but their benefits are more geared toward improved general health.
- nutrition research – fibersol-2 can help decrease appetite when consumed with a meal.
how does this formula compare to the research, though?

who makes lady boss lean?
lady boss labs is the 2022足球世界杯德国队分组 behind the lean all in 1 nutritional shake. at first glance, it appears the 2022足球世界杯德国队分组 has everything together, but we soon learned that’s not the case. lady boss labs is located at 10010 indian school rd ne albuquerque, nm 87112 and their phone number is (877) 246-0781.
according to the better business bureau (bbb) page on lbl, they are not accredited, they have an a+ rating with 4.82 out of 5 stars with an average of 1,800 customer reviews. there have been 141 complaints closed in the last 3 years, 34 complaints closed in the last 12 months. reading through one complaint after another, it appears an auto-ship membership and lax customer support are the two most significant issues.
lady boss labs’ terms and conditions state that the buyer can buy one product or enroll in an auto-ship program. based on the long list of complaints about billing and charges, it appears the auto-ship option may be more prominently shown, or the buy one option is not very clear – otherwise, there wouldn’t be as many similar complaints.
as for lax customer service and support, it surprised us to read that a user who purchased a one-year membership for $4,997 and tried to talk with her coach or have questions answered got the runaround. many of the billing complaints also speak of poor customer service.
in april 2019, the bbb issued an alert for its pattern of complaints regarding the cancellation. however, lady boss labs have responded to these alerts and has outlined how they plan to improve.

lady boss lean ingredients
if you’re looking for ingredients for lady boss lean, all you’d have to do is check out the lady boss lean nutrition facts and label images. but notice, lady boss lean ingredients aren’t easy to find. it took quite a while and a lot of squinting, but we finally gathered the list of ingredients from a picture of the bag.
- grass-fed whey protein concentrate
- grass-fed whey protein isolate
- organic evaporated cane juice sugar
- natural flavors
- protease enzyme blend
according to the british journal of nutrition, multivitamin supplements may help lower body weight for some individuals. additionally, medgenmed found that increased bmi coincided with decreased multivitamin usage. stevia is a zero-calorie sweetener that is considered safer and healthier than most other sweeteners, according to nutrition today.
on the official website, there are also many lady boss lean flavors and official lady boss lean recipes, which may mean additional ingredients.
a closer look at lady boss lean ingredients
there are only three main ingredients in lady boss lean – whey protein, fiber, and digestive enzymes. it also includes grass-fed whey protein concentrate, grass-fed whey protein isolate, maltodextrin, organic evaporated cane juice sugar, natural flavors, dicalcium phosphate dihydrate(calcium), xanthan gum, prohydrolase protease enzyme blend(protease from bacillus subtilis and ananas comosus)(digestive enzymes), magnesium oxide, sucralose, d-alpha tocopheryl acetate(vit e), ascorbic acid(vit c), acesulfame potassium, biotin, niacin (vit b3), zinc oxide, powdered milk, beta carotene(vit a), thiamine (vit b1), d-calcium pantothenate(vit b5), cholecalciferol (vit d3), pyridoxine hcl(vit b), riboflavin(vit b2), cyanocobalamin(vit b12), folic acid(vit b), potassium iodine. contains milk.
whey protein
some research claims protein works to lengthen the time between the protein-based meal and the next meal or snack. this is not unique to whey protein. what we find most interesting is the studies listed by lady boss labs are geared more toward muscle growth and recovery than weight loss.
one study published in current opinion in clinical nutrition and metabolic care found that whey protein may help improve quality of life is consumed alongside a healthy diet and exercise. another study published in nutrients found the ingredient could also improve recovery after exercise.
one clinical trial is still studying whey protein’s effects on weight.
lady boss lean claims
it surprised us quite a bit when we found a list of lady boss lean shake claims. our surprise wasn’t because the claims were new to us. it was because there was no mention of the supplements not being reviewed or approved by the fda. the statements are written as the supplement will provide all the promised results, even medical ones. the claims include:
“save money by replacing your breakfast
get more protein
boost your immune system (medical claim?)
control sweet cravings
promote digestive health”
the entire lady boss website is packed with claims, promises, benefits, and fancy words just like these. hidden within these claims are more unsupported allegations that should be supported by clinical research. how about:
“most cravings stem from a lack of nutrition…”
we are left wondering where this statement came from and who said it.
54 ingredients with three studies each
lady boss labs makes the considerable claim that all 54 ingredients used in their products are backed by “at least 3 published scientific research articles attesting to their effectiveness.” but, as we searched the official website pages, we found a link to references or research. three ingredients, digeseb, fibersol, and premium grass-fed whey protein, are listed. what happened to the other 51 ingredients?
possible lady boss lean side effects
some lady boss lean reviews state the product doesn’t cause side effects, but the ingredients in the formula may. some issues to watch out for include:
fiber and digeseb
- bloating
- gas
- feeling of fullness
- loose bowel movements
- constipation
whey protein (at high doses)
- thirst
- bloating
- fatigue
- more active bowel
these lady boss lean side effects are standard with any product that contains fiber, enzymes, and/or whey. so, we are not saying the product causes any side effects. we are sharing the known side effects of the ingredients.

what users are saying
“absolutely loved this! you could make so many different shakes with this and even bake with it. i have lost 24 lbs with this shake and better food choices. unfortunately after using it for 3 months, i have noticed i’ve been getting dizzy and lightheaded but only after having my morning shake. so i went a week without it and have been fine. this is common with sucralose, and that is in the shake mix.”
“this tastes so good! it’s not even a question that they have that part correct. it’s the ingredients that make this a poor choice for a meal replacement. i wish they would make one with even half the goodness but better sweeteners. don’t buy if you have any problems with sugar. do your research.”
“the best protein shake i have ever tasted!”
bottom line on lady boss lean
researching lady boss lean has been a trip all over the internet from the bbb to online garage sales, all in hopes of finding those important details left off the website and out of the product description. at the end of the day, there’s nothing wrong with the protein meal replacement shake. there’s also nothing special about it, and the 2022足球世界杯德国队分组 needs to work on transparency by listing ingredients, sharing research, and explaining what the supplements do without the flowery language.

update: this was from an order in may that i returned in june and not the product that was returned june 28. there were 2 orders, one i received a refund for and the other where i have not.
update 2: do not buy from ladyboss!!!!!!!!
i purchased 2 bags of the shakes in may. i returned them and have yet to receive a refund. ladyboss continues to refuse to refund me. so now they have 2 unopened bags of shakes and my $90 and probably have already resold the 2 bags that i sent back. they have terrible customer service and will not refund me what is rightfully mine. i have already filed a complaint with the bbb, did a dispute with my credit card and other things to try to get my $90 back.
this 2022足球世界杯德国队分组 is a joke. returned my product in june and still haven’t received a refund…2 months later. now they have the product and my money. i plan to write a review on bbb and contacting the ohio attorney general.
i am never purchasing ladyboss kaelin poulin products again. their products tasted pretty decent but their customer service and nonstop sales calls are ridiculous. so much easier just to go buy my protein shakes at the store (and cheaper too!!!!)
i had my first shake today and it is sweet and does taste like cake to me, but it can make you go to the bathroom. so, make sure you consume a lot of water

i have emailed customer service 4 times to stop emailing me they say they took me off the list and the next day i get another email. i have selected unsubscribe at least a dozen times and nothing i do makes them leave me alone. i don’t want their product, they don’t allow honest feedback they make it seem great and skip over all the women who gained weight from drinking it. they scam people into thinking it’s great and you can’t find honest feedback because they delete it.

has artificial ingredients that are not healthy….starting with sucralose! it’s no longer made with stevia1 sad….
rachael harner (verified purchase)
i spent nearly $300 on a large bundle and it was missing two packages of protein and one of my cups was broken. customer service told me i never ordered 6 packages of protein, when i showed my packing slip she ignored me and i had to call. their moderators on facebook delete anything where people mention an issue with shipping, customer service or their order being incomplete. lots of women complaining of gaining weight while taking lady boss lean

i have been using ladyboss for about 7 months now, and i love it! they did change the formula and it definitely doesn’t look the same as it did, but it still tastes ad mixes the same and gives me good benefits. helps curb my craving for sweets late in the night and i’m excited to wake up and get a shake and add my burn product to it as well. i see and feel results, the product works wonders for my chronic constipation and keeps me regular!
connie m (verified purchase)
i didn’t think this tasted like vanilla cake & it had to be made with almond milk if you use water it’s awful also not filling and i was hungry between meals great as a healthy snack uses only one scoop which is convenient other shakes require a mix of things
helen koehn (verified purchase)
is there a such thing of drinking too many lady boss lean shakes in a day?
lady boss lean suggests its users only consume up to 3 shakes per day – 2 as meal replacements and 1 as a snack.
shelley gardner
delivery not on time- at the time i purchased, it said it was in stock and had no wait time. 4 days after they processed my credit card, they said they had delays for first time customers and those not on a on-going plan purchase. they said i clicked the box for this disclaimer, which didn’t start until 4 days after they processed my payment. after checking where my product was, they lied to me about the terms i had purchased under. not very honest of them. 6 weeks later and i am still waiting for a delivery.
michelle
i noticed some awful ingredients in this misleading shake! there are synthetic dyes with the worst one being red #40 and others read 40 is not only a neurotoxin but can cause heart palpitations. for sucralose which is deadly overtime with accumulation giving you lung and kidney issues!? malodextrin and fructose.
horrible ingredients!! this woman should be ashamed of her self with all her false claims and she’s feeding it to her baby! wow!!?
why would red #40 be in a white powder? i have read over the ingredients of lady boss lean and nope, no red #40.
red dye 40 is in a lot of products that are not “red”.
i agree 100%!!!!!!!!

ladyboss results coaching is awful and expensive. don’t do it. you will regret it. high pressure sales along with poor coaching experience will leave you disappointed
did not help me at all and would not let me cancel a month into the program.
jenn (verified purchase)
the 2022足球世界杯德国队分组 changed the formula not too long ago. the only reason i noticed the change was because i constantly was having loose stool anytime i went to the restroom. my bottom was so raw and my stomach was in knots! contacted the 2022足球世界杯德国队分组 and all they could offer was a refund minus shipping for any item purchased in the last 30 days. now i have 2 bags costing me around $100 or both. would not recommend this product. i also posted in the community asking if this was an issue for anyone else and my question was deleted with simply return info. not impressed and left a bad taste in my mouth— literally and figuratively!
do you want to sell your lean? if so email me jamielkolb@yahoo.com
i would love to purchase your lean bags. if you are wanting to sell them.

i used the ladyboss lean powder for a year and absolutely loved it! i didn’t wanna lose weight, i drank it for all the vitamins. i mixed it with fruit , almond butter and almond milk and it was delicious! i stopped it because they changed the formula. now instead of tasting like vanilla cake, it tastes like a crushed up vitamin. i was soooo disappointed to say the least. i never had any problem whatsoever with customer service. they once sent my order to the wrong address and sent me another order right away! i just wish they would go back to original formula so i can start using it again!
i would buy them.
you shouldn’t there are awful ingredients that you should look into
if anyone wants to sell their bags of lean if you are not happy with them i will buy them. i love it. i add stuff to them too.
sarah brathole (verified purchase)
now they have changed the stevia to sucralose. i can no longer drink it. they did not inform customers of the change either!
i agree with your comment. i used it fir 3 years. just recently cancelled…because the calories went from 100 to 110, the cholesterol went from >3 to 40, sodium from 45 to 85 & stevia to sucralose. if you had 2 /3 times a day ex. cholesterol intake for the day would be if taken twice a day 80. not good, especially if your diet effects your cholesterol levels as mine does. i really hope one day lb goes back to the earlier ingredients when i started using it 3 years ago.
i ordered a sample pack to try them bc everything showed stevie. once i paid for and received them. they had sucralose. when i posted in the group for advice on other shakes and sucralose/aspartame free snacks, the moderator declined my post saying that i could not use the word “sucralose” bc it gave a negative connotation. they asked that i rephrase saying “one of the ingredients” instead of saying what it actually was.
sharon (verified purchase)
i have 5 bags of lean i can’t use due to the sugar content in it. it does taste good though. cancelling is a nightmare. her blogs are so tightly controlled with rules that i feel like i can’t speak freely. i’ll pass as i feel like if you don’t goose step behind her products, they just delete your posts. she should welcome the negative and the positive or you will see reviews outside her site which is public
i agree if you are not posting about exercise or how great the product is they delete your comment then kick you put of group! not the kind of support they “promise”
i agree with the posts. mine was deleted and i was given a rude warning. i am trying lady boss because of all of the support from other women. i not happy to discover it is sweetened with something other than stevia, erthrytol or xylitol.
how long ago did you leave this comment. do you still have those bags of lean?
i would love to buy your bags of lean if you still have them. i can’t really afford from the site so if you are selling them at a discounted price i would like to buy them. let me know.
rachelle jean-baptiste
i have not received my package other then a backorder e-mail and some man calling to sell me more stuff! i need my package or refund asap!
i contacted them after 6 weeks of not receiving a product, and i didn’t even get notice of a backorder. they lied to me and said i clicked some notice of a shipping delay that only started 4 days after they charged my cc. at my time of purchase, the website promised they had stock for everyone ordering at that time.
