Analysis

The shake supplies substantial plant protein with fiber, an omega blend, vitamins, minerals, digestive enzymes, and prebiotics. Methylcobalamin and d-biotin are favorable details within a broad nutritional formula.

Sea salt provides clearly identified sodium suited to heavy sweat replacement, but potassium remains low despite using citrate. Ferrous fumarate may be harder on digestion, chromium chloride is a weak form, and zinc oxide plus vitamin D2 are less favorable choices.

The formula works best as a convenient meal-support shake rather than a precise mineral or mental-focus supplement. High sodium and premium serving cost reduce its fit for routine use by people who do not need athletic electrolyte replacement.

Who is it for
  • Adults seeking an all-in-one vegan shake
  • Active users needing protein and sodium
  • People wanting fiber and prebiotics with protein
Best for
  • Convenient plant-protein meals
  • Fitness nutrition
  • Broad micronutrient backup

Pros

  • Substantial vegan protein
  • Broad vitamin and mineral profile
  • Includes fiber, prebiotics, and enzymes
  • Uses methylcobalamin and d-biotin

Cons

  • High sodium
  • Potassium is modest
  • Chromium chloride and zinc oxide are weak forms
  • Uses vitamin D2 and folic acid

Warnings

  • The high sodium amount may not suit sodium-restricted diets.
  • Ferrous fumarate may cause digestive discomfort in sensitive users.

Nutrient quality

70 High impact

Useful plant protein and broad micronutrient coverage support meal-style nutrition. High sodium, basic nutrient forms, and opaque functional blends reduce quality.

.

Ingredient transparency

53 Moderate impact

Some core nutrition amounts are clear enough to evaluate. Missing complete ingredients, use directions, or blend details create meaningful gaps.

.

Customer satisfaction

60 Moderate impact

Aggregate satisfaction data are favorable. Specific firsthand comments were not supplied, leaving repeated complaints and purpose fit uncertain.

.

Value for money

56 Moderate impact

Formula weaknesses limit value for routine use. Better-balanced or more transparent alternatives are likely to be more practical.

Vitamin D · 15 mcg

A meaningful protein serving supports post-training repair, while carbohydrates and sodium can help replace exercise fuel and fluid losses. The shake also supplies B vitamins, iron, and methylcobalamin for broad nutritional support.

The protein source composition and several large blends are not individually quantified, and the formula lacks a proven dedicated ergogenic active. It is most useful as a meal-style recovery shake rather than a pre-workout or performance enhancer.

Report overview
A Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityA Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyD+ Value

Natural sea salt provides a clearly identified sodium source. The sodium dose is well suited to meaningful athletic replenishment. Well-chosen supporting electrolytes strengthen the mineral profile, while the serving cost offers no clear advantage for electrolyte support.

C- Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityB+ Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value

Copper gluconate is a common organic salt with moderate absorption potential. The amount meets daily needs, but the zinc-to-copper balance sits just outside the preferred range. A high serving cost limits value despite the broader nutritional formula.

A Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityD Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value

Potassium citrate gives this nutrition shake a well-absorbed and metabolically useful source. The 120 mg serving is still low for potassium-focused use. A high serving cost makes the potassium contribution poor value on its own.
