What is a Protein Meal Replacement Shake?
A protein meal replacement shake is a drink that’s designed to take the place of one of your meals; many exercise lovers like to replace a conventional breakfast with a protein shake to fuel their workout, for example.
Our Garden of Life Raw Organic All-in-One Shake formulas provide 20g of clean, vegan protein per serving, alongside greens, healthy fats, organic fibre, a blend of microbiomes and enzymes, and 21 vitamins and minerals.

These vitamins include vitamin C, which contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, and vitamin D, which contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function. And protein itself promotes growth in muscle mass, meaning a protein meal replacement shake can be a good option to help support your health and fitness goals.
Protein Meal Replacement Shake Benefits
Protein shakes can help to support muscle growth, as protein promotes growth in muscle mass, which means they can be a good option to support your workout routine if you’re trying to bulk up.
Meal replacement shakes can also be an incredibly convenient option when you’re on the go, as all you need to do is mix your protein powder with liquid and shake, and you’ve got a nutritious meal.

Some people use protein meal replacement shakes for weight management, as they can be an easy to way to track calories and monitor portion sizes. Protein bars can also be useful for this. However, it’s important to still make sure you’re eating conventional foods elsewhere in the day to ensure a healthy, balanced, nutritious diet.
