New Improved Flavor - Food-Based™. No Soy, Dairy or Added Sugar. 15 Grams of Rice Protein. Low-Carb, Low-Fat & High-Fiber. 500 mg of Spirulina Rainbow Light's Protein Energizer™ shake is a low-fat nutritious protein shake with a delicious natural vanilla flavor and no added sugar. Unlike other protein drinks that can leave you feeling heavy and bloated, Rainbow Light's Protein Energizer will help you feel nourished, energized and ready to face your day. Plus, Protein Energizer is vegetarian, and because it contains no soy or dairy, it is very easy to digest. The perfect complement to your daily health regimen, it features:. 15 Grams of Hypoallergenic Rice Protein Per Serving - Rice protein has a complete amino acid profile making it an excellent source of protein (see Supplemental Facts below for an amino acid breakdown). And Protein Energizer is free of soy and dairy, both of which can be hard to digest and cause a feeling of heaviness and bloating. 6 Grams of Fiber Per Serving - high in fiber from six different sources: Fibersol-2™, rice bran, oat bran, beet root, apple fiber, and guar gum. 810 mg (herbal powder and strength equivalent) of Adaptogenic Herbs - that increase stamina, mental alertness and work performance without the use of stimulants like caffeine or guarana. These energizing herbs also help combat the sleepy feeling some people get when they eat protein. 500 mg of Spirulina Per Serving - far more than most other instant shakes. Spirulina is a highly nutritious blue-green algae that naturally contains a wide spectrum of vitamins and minerals, and is one of the most concentrated sources of protein in the plant or animal kingdom. Whole Food Nutrition - from spinach, kale, dandelion greens and beet juice concentrates. A Comprehensive Blend of Plant-Source Enzymes - similar to those found in raw whole foods, making Protein Energizer very easy to digest. GUARANTEE: 100% natural and VegeGuard™ screened for vegans.

"I purchased this product, after reading other reviews. So, I wasn't shocked when my drink turned a slight green color, due to the "greens" in the formula. And, it has a bit of an off flavor, but I honestly don't mind that. I put it in plain soy milk and just tell myself it's good for me. What most impressed me, however, were the 15 grams of rice protein, high fiber and greens, no gluten, no dairy and no sugar added. I do believe it gives me the energy I need, when I fix myself a glass in the afternoon, following a busy day at work. A great pick-me-up. I do wish it came in a canister, though, instead of a pouch as it's somewhat messy to scoop from. But, all-in-all, it's a very good product and I'll probably buy it again."

"I bought this shake to add to my breakfast and it works great. It gives me the energy that I need, I have completely stopped drinking coffee since I've bought this shake. It makes me feel great and not bloated and it fills me up as well. The taste is not the best, and it took some time to get used to. But overall its a great product."

"I am sure this shake is great in it's Nutriens and so on, but i could not make a Shake that did not taste like liquid cardboard to me. I tried many different ways and also got over the terrible color of the shake when you mix it with Milk(green) - but had to send it back after all, cause i could not see myself trying it even one more time. I wished it would have worked out for me since i need more Protein."

"This is a great product to add to a smoothie. I felt a little increase in energy, but not a huge amount. Just enough to get me through the morning. If you have fatigue issues then you would have to drink another one for lunch or take an extra energy boosting supplement. Nevertheless, this has a large quantity of superfoods, wholefoods, vitamins, minerals, ect. For the price it is unbeatable. I didn't feel a huge difference just enough to get me through the morning. I will continue to drink this and add a energy supplement to the mix."

Considering What's In It. . .,January 21, 2009
By SeaSunshineGirlfrom Orlando, FL
"The reviews of this product on this site are completely polar. So use some common sense, and put the product in perspective. It is an extremely comprehensive mix of rice protein PLUS energizing herbs PLUS whole green food. And finally, it's sugar-free, sweetened with stevia (which has no impact on your blood sugar). It's the most comprehensive soy-free, vegan, low-carb supplement you can get in a smoothie mix form. Of course, with all this stuff in it, it's going to taste somewhat "green" and it may be less smooth (or grittier) than whey or soy protein. But if you DO want a major impact, vegan, whole meal replacement--and you do NOT want sugar, soy, or dairy, this is your product. Nothing else compares with all of these features. The chocolate tastes waaaay better than the vanilla (which doesn't really taste like vanilla). I WHISK the chocolate into about 6 ounces of almond or rice milk to make a nice pudding (the whisk thickens it nicely). The vanilla needs to be mixed with frozen fruit to taste good. I like to mix it with a small amount of almond milk, plus frozen cherries, and flax seed oil. You can also toss in some almond butter. Enjoy!"
