Soy Protein
The soybeans used in our shakes are of the highest quality grown and harvested in the United States.
Most Formula 1 shakes contain 9 grams of soy protein; a significant contributor to the 25 grams of soy protein a day which studies have shown may reduce the risk of heart disease when used as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol. It is a complete plant protein, and like other proteins, helps preserve lean muscle mass, satisfy your hunger and sustain your energy level.
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates provide the body with a source of glucose, which supplies energy and is used to support bodily functions and physical activity. They are a vital part of a healthy diet.
Most Formula 1 shakes contain about 13 grams of carbohydrates, which are composed of ~9 grams of sugar (as fructose, the same sugar that is naturally found in fruits), ~3 grams of fiber (including inulin, a prebiotic that helps promote the growth of flora) and ~1 gram of starch.
Vitamins and Minerals
Our shakes are formulated with 21 vitamins and minerals, a virtual alphabet of goodness. From Vitamin A to the complete family of B’s, C, D, E, chromium and iron to magnesium, phosphorus, selenium, zinc and many others.
