Vega started as one man’s determination to find a
plant-based diet to fuel an active and healthy lifestyle. Ironman triathlete,
Brendan Brazier, did years of research to formulate some of the most nutritious,
plant-based whole foods into one daily shake. Sold in a powder form, all this
shake requires is to be mixed with a liquid of your choice. We recommend a
non-dairy alternative such as almond milk or coconut milk. It can also be used
as a nutrient supplementation to your favorite smoothie recipe! From a nutrition standpoint, Vega One
Nutritional Shake gives 50% of the daily intake for vitamins and minerals. It
has a broad spectrum of proteins such as pea protein and whole grain brown rice protein supplying all essential amino acids and 15g of
protein per serving. Because the protein is coming from a carbohydrate source, we recommend that you do not mix this powder with fruit due to the combination of carbohydrates and fruits together being bad for proper digestion. Try mixing with an avocado and ice instead! This shake is also loaded with fiber at 6g in each
serving. Vega One is also low glycemic,
high in omega-3 fatty acids, and filled with antioxidants. A Green Blend is also found in Vega One,
delivering the equivalent of 3 servings of vegetables in a single scoop of
powder. Vega One can also help maintain healthy intestinal flora with its high
amount of probiotics and help digestion and absorption with its included digestive
enzymes. Being free of dairy, gluten, and soy this is a great alternative to
other types of nutritional shakes on the market. Aside from the original Natural
flavor, this product is also available in Berry, Chocolate, and Vanilla Chai.
