I bought 6 months worth of the product after watching Maggie G's performance on the ads. Not only did I not see any energy improvement or help in weight loss (I eat super well and train everyday), it gave me stomach bloating like never before. I am from Canada so I Had to pay custom fees to receive the products and now will have to dump it all
And never use it. I hope I will
Not have any problem being refunded, since that's what they advertise!
Just received a bottle of morning complete. Either seriously wasteful and misleading packaging or poor manufacturing - the jar is half empty. I'm assuming it's the former but either way, it's a first and last time purchase. Given this is an order by mail product, they're not fighting for shelf space and visibility in a store -- there's no need for oversized packaging. Serious waste of materials.
Hello Sandra. My name is Chloe, I am with ActivatedYou. I deeply apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced. I completely understand your concern with the amount of product being less than you expected. Due to the nature of the powdered supplement, the contents may have shifted during transit which releases excess air and compacts the product in each jar. The size of the jar is kept larger to prevent spillage and overfilling during the manufacturing process. I can assure you, however, that our products are filled by weight and each jar will have 30 full servings as labeled. I would like to mention that all orders are backed by a 90 day money back guarantee. If you are ever unhappy with an order, you may return it for a full refund. If you ever have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out. My email is chloe@activatedyou.com. Have a nice day.
I saw a infomercial on youtube on this product and I thought I'd try it. I purchased one jar, and of course while checking out, it is pushing you to get more. I thought I'd go ahead and order 3 more jars and just have it on hand. I've never had a bad experience with any type of prebiotic/probiotic. I became constipated the very first day. But I kept taking it, thinking it just takes time. After a week, I had to stop. I was crampy, bloating and uncomfortable. Upon stopping, all of the symptoms were gone within 24 hours. I contacted the company to let them know I was not happy with the product and did receive an email back asking me questions about my experience so they could "look further into my request". What part of "I don't like your product, did they not understand? The response should have been either, We're sorry, we don't offer refunds, or we can offer a refund, here's a free shipping label and upon return of the unopened product, we will issue you a refund." I answered their questions, and I'm waiting to hear back. I won't be utilizing this company for any type of product in the future. It's not even about the money. It's about the principal. When a customer doesn't like your product, you give them a refund without questions. They had my order number. They could have taken care of it, and chose not to. Instead, they want to make me jump through hoops until I give up.
Hello Susan. My name is Chloe, I am with ActivatedYou. I am very sorry to hear about your experience. We take any negative reaction very seriously. We ask questions about any reactions so that we can better our formula and ensure we are able to provide our customers the best product possible. While most customers enjoy our formulas, we understand that they may not be for everyone. For this reason, we stand by our 90 day money back guarantee.

Please email me at chloe@activatedyou.com. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Have a nice day.
I planned to buy the product but decided against it before the final confirmation. I received an email the next day confirming my purchase. I immediately contacted the company and was told that I couldn't receive a refund and that I also could not receive information for a return. Don't trust this company!
It's very good, they have very good products that help me in my health, especially with my digestion.
After two and a half months of using Morning Complete I had absolutely ZERO RESULTS.
"If you're not 100% satisfied with your product for any reason, you're covered by our 100% money-back guarantee (does not cover shipping and handling) for 90 days. For refunds, contact our customer support team at *******403 and we'll refund your purchase, no questions, no hassle."
The part about "no questions, no hassle" is not true. I had to fight to get my refund and now I'm told it may take another 3-5 days.
Buyer beware!
Because it did absolutely nothing for me, I can't recommend it.
Hello Lester. My name is Chloe, I am with ActivatedYou. I deeply apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced.

Started taking this supplement yesterday. Felt great before taking it and then within one hour of taking the supplement I was falling asleep while talking! I never do that! Last night I slept for 14 hours straight... I am so confused as I thought it was supposed to give me energy. I took it again this morning hoping for different results. Already I am feeling light headed... not sure if these are the negative side effects they speak of when starting a new supplement. Surely, I can not continue this supplement if all it does is knock me out.
Hello Bridgid. My name is Chloe, I am with ActivatedYou. I am very sorry to hear about your experience. This is not a common reaction to our formula as it was designed to boost energy. While many of our customers see great results with our formula, we understand that it may not be for everyone. For this reason, we stand by our 90 day money back guarantee. If you are ever unhappy with your order, you may return it for a full refund. If you are still interested in trying out our formula, these tips may help you get the best out of our formula. Start by increasing your daily water intake and avoiding processed foods. As well as adding raw vegetables to your diet such as asparagus, garlic, dandelion greens, chicory root, artichokes, and onions. These vegetables contain natural prebiotics, which can greatly improve the effectiveness of your supplements. If you ever have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out. My email is chloe@activatedyou.com. Have a nice day.
I have been drinking morning complete for 30 days now. I am going to the restroom regularly. I have lost 5 lbs and kept it off, I don't crave sweets and I'm not eating until I'm over full. Once I feel full I stop. I plan to keep going.
I've tried this product for 3 weeks now and not only do I not have any benefit, I have never been so bloated, uncomfortably so. I bought it from the Maggie Q ads and I'm going to have dump it--6 months worth! What's worse, I live overseas and I bought it when I was in the US so I had to pay extra for my suitcase weight.
Hi Robbie, this is Chloe from ActivatedYou. I am very sorry to hear about your experience. However, when taking a probiotic, what you mentioned can be normal. Some customers may experience what is commonly known as die-off symptoms. Die-off symptoms occur when the bad bacteria inside of your body is killed off. The bacteria releases toxins which your body does its best to rid itself of, resulting in some unpleasant but short-lived side effects. Most customers do not experience this, but some may, depending on how much bad bacteria is inside your body. Die-off symptoms can include gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, skin breakouts, and various other stomach flu-like symptoms. For most people, this can be anywhere from 2-5 days but this may last up to a few weeks. I can assure you, however, that these symptoms are very temporary and quite normal whenever a big change is made to someone's diet, lifestyle, or even supplemental regimen. Other customers in similar situations have seen success by increasing their daily water intake and avoiding processed foods. As well as adding raw vegetables to your diet such as asparagus, garlic, dandelion greens, chicory root, artichokes, and onions. These vegetables contain natural prebiotics, which can greatly improve the effectiveness of your supplements. While most customers enjoy our formulas, we understand that they may not be for everyone. For this reason, we stand by our 90-day money-back guarantee. If for any reason you are unhappy with our product. It may be returned for a full refund. If you ever have any questions, please feel free to email me at chloe@activatedyou.com. Have a nice day.
I've been taking ActivatedYou morning complete for a week now, and Im already feeling good results.
I feel much more alert, have a better mood, and feel focused. My tummy is also starting to feel better which is a great feeling. Best to have it first thing in the morning. Incredible in your favourite smoothie. The apple cinnamon flavour is nice and subtle and is really nice in plain water as well
I paid almost $90 AUD for this product and it doesn't worth it! I took it for two weeks and I don't see any difference! Would never recommend it to anyone!

I just saw an ad video for morning complete from ActivatedYou and made a purchase. The purchase was completed, unfortunately, and then I was immediately pushed to buy more of the same product. I declined. Then I was pushed to buy 6 jars of an additional product that claimed that it would give me the most benefit from the first product. (So now, does that mean what I just bought won't work without the second product?) I declined. Then I was pushed to buy only 3 jars. I declined. Then I was pushed to buy 6 jars of a third product. I declined. Then... Is that more than you need? Try just 3 jars... I declined one last time. But my order was complete and I couldn't change my mind and cancel at this point. I immediately called the company to cancel. The man on the phone first of all didn't even ask for the purchase number that I got with my "order confirmation". He instead went right for my email address. Then I asked him "Don't you want my order #?" and he said sure. Like he didn't really need it but should pretend like he does. Then he asked for my address. I gave him my house number and street. Then he wanted the city, state and zip. It is now REALLY feeing like a scam. I wouldn't give it to him feeling like they were trying to get info that they didn't really have in front of them. He said he needed it to verify my identity! As if having the order#, my email address, and my house number and street was not enough! Not to mention that I had made the purchase just moments before, so who would have time to get all of that info and claim to be me? And what benefit would there be to anyone in doing so? A credit would just go back to my form of payment so what would anyone gain by posing to be me? I asked to speak to his supervisor and got another man demanding the same info. I don't trust this company with a 10 foot pole and no one else should either. I will be going to the BBB next. I say "STAY AWAY!"

Was skeptical of this product when I brought it and as soon as I opened it just confirmed it for me. It makes no sense to package this powder in a big tub to only be a quarter full. I read another review with the same issue and the company said so the product doesn't settle? Wth does that even mean? Lol. So the product won't settle in a big tub but will in a smaller one? No one is saying to pack it into a tight container where it's unable to move freely, but give me a break, it doesn't need that much space. It's obviously a rip off just trying to make people think they are getting a decent amount for the price until they open it up. I thought a bag of chips were bad, but this tops the cake. It's powder, not crumbling chips. Paid for it so will try it, but will go back to my previous product.

I have just received my order, and I tried it with some juice, it went down okay. The only thing I can say right now is that I am very disappointed that you would ship a 1/4 full container. I don't care particularily if there are 30 scoops in it. Just disappointed that you chose to ship this in such a big container for the size of the product. That is extra cost and extra environmental impact. I think you should definitely consider the message that it sends to consumers. I will give this product a try to see how it works, but first impression is that I am not sure I should trust the product that is already being sent as a deception. This is not a good brand strategy.
Hi Marie, this is Chloe from ActivatedYou. We do not fill the containers all the way to the top so that it doesn't become compacted. When choosing a jar size to fill a powdered supplement one has to consider the density or fluffiness of the powder used in order to ensure minimal powder loss during packaging. After the jar has been produced and packaged the powder inside will have a chance to settle. We have strict Quality Control procedure measures to ensure that each bottle is meeting label claims. If for any reason that container was not filled appropriately, we will send a replacement to you immediately. Please reach out to me directly if that is the case, my email is chloe@activatedyou.com. Have a great day!
I tried this product for straight 6 months. The first few days, it was helpful to make me go but after that it actually made my bloating worse and did not help digestion at all! I kept using it as I had the supply and finally stopped after my bloating got even worse.
I would not recommend this product at all.
Hi May, this is Chloe from ActivatedYou. I'm sorry to hear about your experience. We understand that while the majority of our customers are happy with our products, everyone is different. We always stand by our 90 Day Money Back guarantee. Please send me a direct message and I can take a look into your account and initiate the refund process. My email is chloe@activatedyou.com. Have a great day!
I am really disappointed with the product. The taste is very difficult to swallow - infact its horrible even after mixing it witg fruit its still nasty! Nothing like it was promoted nor the sample I had tasted previously.
I was hoping that I had finally found a product that was honest and genuinely did what was promoted and promised... but again I end up feeling like a fool yet again believing in a company that falsely led me to believe it was different to the rest of the fake products and companies out there!
Who only think about the $$$ they make!
Not once does it cross there mind the damage they may cause upon someones mental state...
To some people they spend months saving to be able to afford to purchase this product many sacrificing meals or other living costs just to pay for a product they desperately hope will work! There all just as fake as each other! Paying a celebrity to make people believe in some l fake powder product!
Hi Vicky, this is Chloe from ActivatedYou. We're sorry to hear that you don't enjoy the taste of Morning Complete.

Please reach out to me directly with your email and order number and I can get the refund process started for you. My email is chloe@activatedyou.com. Have a nice day.
Tried this for almost 2 weeks. It gave me diarrhea and stomach cramps. At first I thought that it was probably just cleaning out my bowel movement but then I realized that the diarrhea hasn't subside. I've stop taking it for two days now and but I still have diarrhea. I hope it will subside soon. I can't even refund it either since it's pass the 90 days. Bought 3 bottles.
Hi Houa, this is Chloe from ActivatedYou. I am so sorry to hear about your experience! We always recommend speaking to your primary physician before trying a new supplement to ensure it is right for you. Please send me a direct message at chloe@activatedyou.com and I can take a look into your account and we can resolve this issue. Have a good day.
I just opened my bottle a day ago, so I am not a good example for if the product works yet. I am confident it will and will add a review once it does! However I was rather disappointed that I spent $50 on this bottle only for it to be a 3rd full with the powder. Not even half way full. Even my husband was surprised and said that is a bit of a rip off. Not sure if I want to spend that much money for an empty bottle. So hopefully things get better from here...
Hi Mikayla, this is Chloe from ActivatedYou. Our formula is packaged in a larger container to avoid any settling during the shipping process. Each container should have a full 30 day supply. If you have any other questions feel free to reach out to me directly at Chloe@activatedyou.com. Have a great day!
I wanted to like this, but I gag with the taste in any drink I try to put it in.
However, the negative review is due to Terrible Customer Service. I have emailed them 3 times about a Return Label and no response. I have 3 jars that are supposed to be "100% return free"- lies, there is only an address to return to, not actual return label for shipping.
Sent me a shipping return label and give me my 'guaranteed' refund, I will take down this review.
Hello Danielle. My name is Chloe, I am with ActivatedYou. I am very sorry to hear about your experience. All orders come with a 90 day money back guarantee.

I would like to escalate your review to our Customer Relations Team so that an agent may provide you with personalized care and ensure you are fully refunded for this order. Please email me at chloe@activatedyou.com. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
I notice that I do not experience the "food coma" when I take an ActiveEnzyme capsule before a heavy meal. I can tell that food does not just sit in my stomach.
