Now that spring has arrived, we can enjoy the great outdoors and the longer, sunnier days ahead. With that being said, it’s time to be mindful of our nutrition and be sure to make healthful decisions when it comes to snacking and eating while on-the-go.
Enter Vega, the fabulous brand behind plant-based nutrition and performance products aimed to keep you happily fueled and fit. Vega has introduced their newest and I must say, NOTABLE fuel, Vega Protein+ Shake, a convenient, tasty, and super-satisfying beverage that’s ready-to-drink—and packed with real plant protein so you get the proper nutrition while on-the-go or in a time crunch, all in a compact carton.
Best of all, Vega Protein+ Shake is only 170 calories per carton and has 20 grams of complete plant protein from peas, hemp, and pumpkin seeds, along with veggies & greens, 12 vitamins and minerals, 3-4 grams of fiber, and Omega-3 ALA from essential fatty acids from flaxseed so you can enjoy a great-tasting, grab-and-go shake as a meal-replacement or snack that will fuel you and curb your cravings to take you through the day. And, you’ll be happy to know that you’re not only getting real, good-for-you nutrition but that it’s also CLEAN, Vega Protein+ Shake is Non-GMO Project verified, gluten-free, certified vegan!
“Consumers are not limited to the traditional three meals a day,” said Erin Forber, Brand Innovation Manager at Vega. “Recent findings from PLMA Consumer Research report that 37 percent of Americans often eat on the run; 52 percent often work and eat at the same time; and 31 percent eat in their car.[1] This busy consumer is exactly why we created Vega Protein+ Shake – a ready-to-drink beverage for those who are looking for next-level convenience on the go without compromising superior taste and nutrition.”
Vega Protein+ Shake is the go-to drink to enjoy daily, while on-the-go or on getaways (think spring break vacay) because it’s loaded with all the nutrition you need to stay nourished and healthy, and all in a super easy and compact carton that you can carry in your purse, gym bag, or backpack!
Vega Protein+ Shake is available in Chocolate & Vanilla flavors in convenient 4-pack and 12-pack options in the U.S. only.
The Vanilla flavor tastes smooth and sweet, the Chocolate flavor is rich and creamy. Both flavors have a slight chalky texture, but this is really insignificant given their delicious taste.
Tip: Vega Protein+ Shake tastes best chilled- you can stick in the fridge before enjoying or store in a cooler to tote with you while traveling to enjoy cold.
