The Essentials Nutrition Shake is not your typical “meal replacement”. That’s because instead of just focusing on calories, carbs, and protein (which most of us get plenty of already), it provides a full spectrum of essential nutrients…giving you 2x the nutrition of other shakes yet a fraction of the calories and excess carbohydrates.

It is, however, a meal that has the same whole food nutrients, antioxidants, and health-boosting superfoods that are recommended by more nutritionists, dietitians, gastroenterologists, and food scientists…to help improve overall wellness, quicker and easier.

Many (Too many!) “meal replacement shakes” don’t have the right kind of ingredients that can help you not only look and feel better, but also perform better – including having better focus and concentration.

Essentials has more of the right kind of highly-concentrated nutrients that actually targets the specific needs you put your body through . . . whether it is working out, on a diet, on a stressful job. . . .it’s a complete plant-based fuel source made from ingredients that are easier to absorb without bloating or discomfort.

On top of that, unlike other products in our category that require 2 scoops per serving, you get a more nutrient-dense product in just a single scoop meaning you get over 2x more for your money!

Each Essentials Shake package has a stamped-on manufacturing date. The shelf life is about 2 years from the stamped on date, but it is best to consume as closely to the manufacturing date as possible to receive maximum potency.

To maintain freshness, we suggest you store LYFE Fuel products in a cool, dry place away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Most importantly, be sure to keep them in a visible place that will serve as a daily reminder to use them!

Absolutely! The Essentials Shake was designed to be used multiple times throughout the day. Most of our customers use it as a healthy start to their day as a filling smoothie or bowl, as an energy-boosting snack between meals, or as a quick and convenient lunch on-the-go.

When using the Essentials Shake as a meal replacement, you can experiment with or more scoops and different liquid types and quantities that all impact the taste, texture, and total nutrients for the right balance that fills you up and suits your palate.

We grew tired of healthy products that don’t taste good and natural products filled with sugar alcohols, and too much sugar. Our goal was to create a product that tastes AMAZING a while providing a functional benefit. We’ve learned that creating the perfect balance of nutrition and flavor is both an art and a science and it takes time to get it right!

The first iteration of the Essentials Shake took almost 2 years to develop and we’ve already begun progress to make it even more flavorful in our next iteration. Using a unique combination of naturally sweet whole foods and plant extracts our goal is to eliminate stevia and natural flavors from our current formulations to create the cleanest, healthiest, and best-tasting shake on the planet!

We only use sweeteners that have a low glycemic load, no chemical processing, and without hidden additives that are so common in the industry.

Taste is always subjective. But if you could ask the – we lost count – number of moms out there, they would tell you that their kids like it. If Essentials passes the kid test, it must be pretty good.

But you tell us. Try it to see how well you like it, and then let us know.

When mixed when the recommended amount of liquid the Essentials Shake creates a thicker and creamier consistency than what you’d find in a protein shake.

Using the Essentials nutritional powder as the base for a smoothie along with frozen fruit or veggies as a low-carb option is a great way to get additional nutrients, increase the calories, and adapt the flavor and consistency to your personal preferences.

Some of our favorite add-ons are frozen zucchini, frozen cherries, frozen banana, flaxseed, nut butters, and avocado. For additional inspiration and recommendations, check out some of our recipes below!

The Essential Shake was designed as a complete nutritional solution to replace your multivitamin, protein powder, probiotics, and 12 of the most common supplements typically taken individually. The synergistic formulation was designed to provide the foundational nutrition missing in modern diets using evidence-based amounts of the macro and micronutrients all humans require for optimal wellbeing.

Delivering complete nutrition in a highly bioavailable and delicious format makes this shake incredibly versatile to be used as a low-carb meal replacement for weight loss, controlling blood sugar levels between meals, or as an all-in-one nutrition shake used daily to replace 95% of the products in your supplement cabinet.

For best results, it is recommended to implement the Essentials Shake as part of your normal daily routine. For most people, it is used as an energizing breakfast to start the day but can also be used to replace any meal you choose and to complement a healthy diet.

As always, it’s important to consult your physician if you are currently taking any additional supplements or medications. The Essentials is not intended to treat, diagnose, or cure any specific disease.
