Not all “nutrition” shops are the same.
You’ve probably seen the nutrition clubs around town selling colorful shakes and teas. What you may not realize is that many are connected to Herbalife, a multi level marketing company, and the products can be very different from a smoothie made primarily with real fruits and vegetables.
Herbalife shake recipes can start with scoops of formulated powders, water and ice. Some of their protein mixes include ingredients like soy protein isolate, corn syrup solids, maltodextrin, artificial flavors and sucralose.
That’s simply not what we do at Pure Green.
Our superfood smoothies are built around real ingredients like whole fruits, vegetables, açaí, coconut water, nut butters and spirulina. No ice fillers. No added sugars. And when you add protein, we use high quality options including grass fed whey, plant based protein and collagen.
For us, wellness isn’t about turning water, ice and powders into something that looks healthy. It’s about putting real, nutrient dense ingredients into the blender and making them taste really good.
So here’s my friendly buyer beware: next time you walk into a “nutrition” shop, ask what’s actually going into your shake. You might be surprised by the answer.
We’re always happy to tell you exactly what goes into ours. Hope to see you soon.
