The Shake the Takes The Cake!

Protein shakes are getting VERY popular for all sorts of reasons. Some use them for a meal replacement to lose weigh, some use them to help build muscle, some just because they are quick and easy! 

These are all good reasons but with the growing increase in protein shake popularity, the quality is decreasing. Companies want to make BIG BUCKS. So they add in cheap ingredients that may not be so beneficial to your health. Branding and marketing has made everyone think that they need "WHEY" protein. Well, whey comes from milk. It deteriorates and goes bad faster, and most people have a hard time digesting whey. If you are lactose intolerant or vegan, you want to avoid whey always! This is not the only problem with whey. In many of the most popular protein powders on the market, they have found overloads of heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, arsenic and mercury. These are shakes that are branded as HEATHY and SAFE... even for pregnant women.

Studies show that MOST people already get enough protein in a regular balanced diet. I have 1 Arbonne Protein Shake a day. Why?

1. Because I LOVE them
2. Because it ensures I have 20 grams of vegan protein (Easiest to digest from peas and brown rice)
3. Because it ensures I have 22 grams of essential vitamins and minerals
4. Because it acts as a full meal replacement so it can help with weight loss
5. Because it is Botanically-based, vegan and gluten free
6. Because it contains extras like flax and its sweetened naturally 
7. Because it contains natural ingredients that help curve and satisfy hunger.
8. Because it satisfies my craving for CHOCOLATE :)
9. Because it keeps me full for hours
10. Because it when I'm on the go, this is the easiest option!!
