Nature’s Plus Spiru-Tein.

I have tried so many different protein powders and drink mixes in the past several years. Honestly, most of them have sucked. Some taste horrible others are filled with ingredients that are horrible and since I am a texture person, 90% of them lose right of the bat due to that. If I am going to add things to my diet to make it better and more well-rounded, they need to taste good and have quality ingredients in them. Supplements don’t come cheap so before you buy something research it and see what people say about it, then take that with a grain of salt and proceed. That is how I chose to pick up this Spiru-Tein at Vitamin Shoppe. Good ingredients and good reviews, I figured all those 100’s of people could not be wrong 😉

Spiru-Tein is a vegan protein shake mix that is made by Nature’s Plus. It is made with all natural ingredients and offers up 14 grams of plant-based protein per serving. Spiru-Tein is also fat-free and offers 100% of your daily recommended vitamins and some minerals. That is what really intrigued me about this shake was its complete nutrition profile. From the rice, soy and pea proteins to the vitamins and minerals, this shake really stood out amongst the other options at the store. This drink mix really delivers and I highly recommend it to people looking to add some more plant protein to their diets. This is a great substitute for whey or other dairy based proteins most of us are using. You cannot tell the difference between this and dairy based protein shakes, it blends well, tastes good and is good for you.

Orgain Or Bust.

Orgain Is The Worlds First Organic Meal Replacement Shake.

I pretty much drink at least 1 protein shake per day. I have my few favorites and I tend to stick with them but last week I decided to try something new in the world of healthy, high protein drinks. While checking out at Whole Foods, Orgain drinks caught my eye. ‘High in protein, all natural, organic ready to drink nutritional shake’ sealed the deal. I grabbed 2, chocolate for me and vanilla for my boyfriend. I held absolutely no expectations when it came to this drink, so needless to say when I drank it and was blown away by the taste, I was a bit shocked.

Invented by a doctor, Orgain packs 16 grams of whey and milk protein with a proper balance of carbs, protein and fat. Dr.Abraham set out to make the healthiest drink on the planet and I think he accomplished it. Orgain also has an amazingly complete vitamin and mineral profile, with no caffeine, no artificial sweetener, no preservatives and it is gluten-free. This drink is made with real fruits and veggies such as kale, bananas, oranges, carrots, tomatoes and spinach. It has as much antioxidant capacity as 10 servings of fruits and veggies. For an extra anti-oxidant boost there is also pomegranate and green tea extract polyphenols.

This is the perfect shake for breakfast or in between meals, there is nothing ‘proteiny’ tasting about this drink and you cannot taste any of the fruits and veggies in either the chocolate or vanilla flavors. My chocolate shake tasted like real chocolate, it was not to sweet, not overpowering and not chemically at all. I am not even a vanilla person but I have to say that the  vanilla one is really good too, I can’t deny it 🙂

Here’s To ‘The Healthiest Drink On The Planet.’
