What's good Gab

Review and recipe: Hop into health with Vega

in Food, Health & Fitness on 02/23/17

With the New Year in full swing, it’s time to resolve to make a real change—and make a lifestyle commitment towards total wellness for a whole body transformation. And there’s no better way to thrive this 2017 than with the help of Vega, the premium brand behind plant-based nutrition and performance products all aimed to help you achieve a new (and better) you!

Vega offers an amazing lineup of delicious, nutritious, and clean products to fuel you ‘round-the-clock as well as power you during active pursuits. Plus, Vega makes it super-easy to eat clean while at-home and on-the-go, all while helping you reach your goals.

So take a look at some of Vega’s protein standouts and performance picks that are sure to help you stay on track this 2017 and beyond.

AIM TO GET YOUR GREENS

Vega Protein & Greens

Fuel up with greens and great nutrition with Vega Protein & Greens, a clean formula that cleverly combines plant protein with good-for-you veggies, making it an incredibly nutritious and oh-so-tasty drink mix that’s great for on-the-go or at-home—and an easy way to get your greens this 2017!

Vega Protein & Greens is packed with 20 grams of clean plant-based protein from pea protein, SaviSeed [sacha inchi] protein, hemp seed protein, and sprouted whole grain brown rice protein, delivering pure nutritional protein power. Plus, it’s enhanced with 2 servings of good-for-you-greens from alfalfa, spinach, broccoli, and kale, all at only 110 calories per serving (that’s just 1 scoop). And you’ll love that it’s super easy to mix, tastes great, is super-satisfying and smooth—and best of all, it’s Non-GMO Project verified, gluten-free, and Certified Vegan so you can rest assured that you’re fueling up with a clean nutritional formula.

Vega Protein & Greens retails at $29.99 for a Small Tub (18 servings), $39.99 for a Medium Tub (21 servings), and $49.99 for a Large Tub (26 servings). Protein & Greens is available in a variety of delicious flavors including, Vanilla, Chocolate, Berry, Coconut Almond, Tropical, and Natural. My personal pick is the Vanilla Flavor which is subtly sweet and super-smooth.

RESOLVE TO RECOVER AND RECHARGE

Vega Sports Performance Protein

Elevate your fitness regimen with this top-performing and clean sports protein that’s incredibly delicious and super-satisfying—and sure to help you recover quickly and recharge powerfully post-workouts! Vega’s Sports Performance Protein is a game-changer containing 30 grams of protein made from a clean, multi-source blend of pea, alfalfa, pumpkin seed and organic sunflower seed protein, along with 6 grams of Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs), 1 billion CFU probiotics, and turmeric, black pepper and tart cherry, all aimed to repair and build strong, healthy muscle post-workouts and accelerate recovery. Vega Sports Performance Protein is also super easy-to-mix and great tasting, so you can enjoy it in a shaker bottle with water immediately post-workout or blend it with almond milk and a banana at-home for a super-satisfying smoothie that will quickly recharge and renew you after a heavy training, cardio or weight-lifting session. Plus, it’s only 150 calories, is an Informed-Choice sports nutrition product, and is amazingly Vegan, Non-GMO verified, and gluten-free, so you enjoy clean, power-packed protein that’s both filling and fulfilling!

Vega Sports Performance Protein retails for $35.99 for a box of 12 single packets. It is also available in a Large and new Extra Large container. Available in Vanilla, Chocolate, Berry and Mocha. My personal pick is the Chocolate flavor- it tastes creamy, delicious and is semi-sweet which is a perfect post-workout protein that satisfies your cravings as well your sweet tooth!
