How to Try a Protein Shake in 3 Days (Black Friday Offer)

A label can tell you the protein content and the ingredients, but what it can’t tell you is whether you’ll enjoy the flavour, how thick it feels, or whether it sits with you.

That’s why trying a shake before you commit to a full pouch makes sense.

Below is a simple three-day way to do it, what to notice along the way, and a few delicious chocolate recipes to try once you’re feeling confident.

What’s Included In Our Travel & Trial Pack?

Our Travel & Trial Pack has three single-serve sachets of one flavour in a stand-up pouch. The chocolate has 32 g of protein and 5.2 g of carbohydrate per serve, which is roughly a palm-sized serving of protein. It’s certified FODMAP Friendly, so it’s a comfortable way to try a new shake if you’re sensitive to certain foods.

Our founder, Dr Angela Kwong, is a Sydney GP who designed the shake with her patients in mind, so it’s made to be easy to enjoy and easy to fit into your normal day.

What To Notice Along The Way

You don’t need anything fancy to track with. Just pay attention to a few things:

• Taste - is it a flavour you’d be happy to have again?
• Texture - how does it mix, and do you prefer it thinner or thicker?
• Flavour - does it suit you with water, milk or ice?
• How it sits with you - some people like to try something new in a small way first, to see how it feels afterwards. If you have a digestive condition, your GP or dietitian can help you work out what suits you best.

A Simple Three-Day Trial

Changing one thing at a time makes it easier to tell what you might like.

• Day 1 - make it as directed, with one sachet in 300 mL of water. Taste it before you change anything.
• Day 2 - change the liquid, or add ice. Our post on mixing a shake with milk or water explains how to change this.
• Day 3 - use your last sachet in one of our delicious recipes below.

A few notes on your phone each day is plenty. If you’d like another take on trying a shake first, we’ve written about this in trying a new protein shake without committing to a full pouch.

The Fun Part - Once You’re Confident, Try Our Recipes

If you like our shake, it can do more than come out of a shaker. These three recipes use the chocolate flavoured shake:

• High Protein Chocolate Mousse - quick to make and easy to prepare ahead.
• High Protein Chocolate Ice Cream - a cool, creamy treat made with our shake.

A Closing Thought

Finding a shake that you enjoy is easier when you can take your time with it. Three serves is plenty of room to taste, compare and decide.
