phn4455 Â Â 10 #1 Posted March 14, 2017 :help:Im trying to get healthy and have started making smoothies. Â I recently bought a powder from a healthfood shop to put in the smoothie and it appears to have a high percentage of sawdust in it:huh:. Â Does anyone know where I could get this powder analysed? I have set fire to a small amount of it and it smoulders & smells like wood. Surely this is illegal or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

tzijlstra   11 #4 Posted March 14, 2017 Fortunately EU regulations demand all products to list all ingredients. It is not likely it contains sawdust unless it explicitly states it does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

silentP Â Â 10 #11 Posted March 14, 2017 It occurs to me that it might be why they refer to it as burning calories, obviously you need something to ignite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mister M Â Â 1,625 #12 Posted March 15, 2017 Hmm I'd be tempted to make my own smoothies, rather than buy a powder with sawdust in. If you want a crunchy texture just add oats or a Weetabix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
