Wondering about the benefits of Shakeology over a protein shake and/or a simple multivitamin? Here’s the breakdown and analysis.
Protein shake – The purpose of a protein shake is to help build and repair muscle tissue. It is an important element of a healthy diet, particularly if weight lifting is part of your workout regimen. However, protein does not replenish essential nutrients lost during strenuous exercise.
Multi-vitamin – Helps replenish the vitamins and minerals in the body often depleted during exercise. As such, you need to consume the recommended daily allowance of vitamins, which is harder to do as you reduce calories. Taking a daily multivitamin helps prevent disease, maintain energy and keep your immune system strong. However, a multi-vitamin cannot be used as a meal replacement.
Shakeology – Provides a source of protein (17g) and all the benefits of a multi-vitamin, and can be used as a meal replacement, there by promoting rapid weight loss. It’s a premium meal replacement shake that combines many of nature’s most health-boosting ingredients, including real food sources of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants, plus protein and phytonutrients to help rebuild muscle, maximize cellular health, eliminate toxins, and keep blood sugar from spiking.
