Carbohydrate, protein and fat sources

The carbohydrate blend is maltodextrin, waxy maize starch, barley starch, sweet potato and rolled oats. Protein comes from a six-part dairy blend: whey protein concentrate, hydrolyzed whey protein, whey protein isolate, micellar casein, milk protein concentrate and milk protein isolate. The fat is a food blend of MCT oil from fractionated coconut, avocado, flax seed and pumpkin seed. Defatted soybean, pea and guar gum thicken the shake, lactase and protease enzymes are included, and Cinnulin PF cinnamon extract and tart cherry close the list.

Strawberry Banana flavour

Strawberry Banana is a fruit-smoothie flavour coloured with red beet powder. Its ingredient list adds sunflower oil to the fat blend; check the panel on your bag for the exact Strawberry Banana nutrition figures.

How to mix it

Pour 360 to 600 mL of water into a shaker or blender, add two scoops and shake for 15 to 20 seconds. Less water gives a thicker, sweeter shake. Splitting the serving across the day is common for people who find 550 calories in one glass hard to finish. One bag at one serving a day lasts 16 days; at two servings a day it lasts eight.

The shake contains milk (whey), soy and tree nut (coconut). Anyone with those allergies should choose a different product.
