Zinzino LeanShake Berry, 16 servings

Plant-based, fresh in taste, and intended to replace a real meal.

Why it works

The protein comes from pea and oat protein, so it is dairy-free. The fibers are the Zinobiotic mix: psyllium husks, resistant corn starch, inulin, and oat beta-glucans. Dietary fibers are a natural component of a balanced diet, and here they do the job you expect from a meal: slow digestion instead of fast.

In addition, it contains MCT fats, quinoa, pineapple, papaya, and 25 vitamins and minerals. Proteins contribute to the maintenance of muscle mass. Calcium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamin D contribute to normal muscle function.

The flavor is wild berry, distinctly fruity and slightly tart.

For whom

For anyone who wants to or needs to eat plant-based, and prefers drinking something fresh rather than something sweet. The latter is a bigger difference than it seems: those who drink a sweet shake often still crave something sweet afterward. A fresh taste rounds off the meal better.

Contains oats and flaxseed. Not suitable if you need to avoid these.

How to use it

For a complete meal replacement, mix two 30-gram sachets with 250 ml of water and shake for a few seconds. As a snack, take one sachet with 250 ml of skimmed milk or a plant-based alternative.

This tastes best when served cold. Use cold water or put it in the fridge for fifteen minutes; when lukewarm, the acidity becomes too sharp.

Replacing two daily meals of an energy-restricted diet with meal replacements contributes to weight loss. Replacing one daily meal contributes to weight maintenance after weight loss.

What I would like you to know

If you have never worked with fiber in this quantity before, your gut may protest for the first few days. That is normal and it will pass. Build it up if it is too much for you: start with one shake per day instead of two, and drink enough water with it. The latter is often forgotten and is precisely the most important thing.

I will also honestly say that a shake is not a strategy. Anyone who replaces two meals and does not change anything about what is on the table in the evening will primarily feel tired. It works when it is part of a whole, and we will look at that whole together if you are in a program.
