It'll be a mirical if you see any gains over a 2 day period. As with all products of this nature,it takes time. There are also other factors,the product alone won't do much,a good diet plan is the way to go imo.
Just tell your missus its better out than in

No offence but

Give it 2 months and then if you have not seen any progress start questioning why.

To be properly hydrated your urine should be clear. Any deviation is a sign you are getting dehydrated. Orange piss(lkike after a night out) is a sign you need some water.

If its lime green, then this maybe something else!

Anyone taken Pro Vital "am intake" with breakfast?, that makes your first or second piss lime, even when you are hydrated.

Changed to EAS and the lime was non existent, and that was with no change of intake routine!

im on the progain aswell as SAN V12 creatine. I have noticed a slight colour difference, but since abusing my water intake, it doesnt seem so bad.

The reason it gives you wind is becos when you mix it with ur chosen liquid. Your putting air in it, especially if you use a blender. I like to let it settle for a bit then drink it, but not too long or it seperates. It still gives you wind but not as bad.
