Why Shakewell?
30 Grams of High Quality Protein
Shakewell boasts 30 grams of high quality protein, sourced from grass-fed cows. 30 grams is the perfect amount of protein to kickstart muscle protein synthesis (MPS), your bodies mechanism for repairing and building lean muscle.
Utilize Shakewell best by using it as a post-workout, a meal replacement, or the perfect on-the-go snack. Protein is the most satiating macronutrient, so use Shakewell to crush cravings, and crush your protein goals!
The Fresh Whey Difference
Fresh whey is an ancient superfood that was discovered in 5500BC. Hippocrates would prescribe it to his patients in 300BC when they had skin or gastrointestinal issues. It is high in hydrating potassium, phosphorous, calcium, and sodium, and also contains magnesium, vitamin B5 and molybdenum.
We love fresh whey for it’s micronutrient properties, and for the fact that it’s a natural preservative and stabilizer. At Shakewell, we pride ourselves on our incredible (and short) ingredients list! We’re proud to NOT use any unnatural, lab-made preservatives, gums, fillers or stabilizers so you can feel great about drinking this high protein beverage, so cheers to fresh liquid whey!
We also love fresh whey because it is an upcycled product. Much of the whey resulting from commercial production of cheese and other dairy products ends up going down the drain. We at Shakewell want to shine a light on this forgotten ancient superfood which provides micronutrients, keeps our drink fresh, and helps the environment.
No BS!
We’re proud of our ingredients list and we fight to keep it short, yet bold. How often do you see an ingredients list printed in large print on a product? Shakewell does that because we want you to read it! The laundry list of additives, gums, preservatives and stabilizers that are in our competitors products are part of why we started Shakewell. Enjoy the taste and the feeling of a fresh, natural, no BS protein beverage!
Fresh!
Shakewell is the first ever fresh protein drink. That means, similar to anything that’s fresh, we expire. Shakewell is made in small batches, with the freshest whey, and shipped to you on ice, so it’s perfectly fresh and ready for you and your loved ones to drink. It’s best consumed within 30 days, and should be kept refrigerated!
VERY low lactose
Shakewell uses lactase to make our beverages VERY low lactose. Millions of Americans are lactose sensitive, and we want them to be able to enjoy Shakewell too! Lactose intolerance occurs when a person has a lack of the digestive enzyme lactase. SO we add lactase to our drinks to digest the lactose, so even if you’re lactose sensitive, you can enjoy Shakewell worry free.
Allulose Sweetened
Allulose is a naturally occurring sugar found in figs, raisins, wheat, maple syrup and molasses. It’s sweet like table sugar (sucrose) but without some of sugar’s well-documented downsides. It’s roughly 70% as sweet as sugar, so it tastes similar, but it is not absorbed into the body, and therefore, does not contribute to your daily caloric intake.
Benefits
Why Protein?
Build Muscle & Lose Fat
Protein is the most satiating (filling) of all the macronutrients, and whey protein is more satiating than other proteins such as soy and casein. These properties make Shakewell a useful tool for those looking to eat fewer calories in order to lose fat, and grow lean muscle. Read more here!
High Quality Protein
High quality protein is vital for the repair and building of lean muscle mass, and whey protein is as high quality as it gets. It has the right amount of essential amino acids to give it a perfect digestibility score (DIAAS), which means that every gram of protein from whey is absorbed quickly by your body! See the DIAAS chart here!
Leucine
As muscle declines with age, a high protein diet and resistance training become more important. Whey is particularly rich in the branched-chain amino acid leucine, which the most growth promoting amino acid. Read more!
Longevity
A diet rich in high quality protein is the ultimate way to supplement your workouts and increase lean muscle. Lean muscle helps the immune system, allows for a better glucose response and gives your body a vital fuel should you end up sick or bed-ridden. Read more!
Electrolyte Rich
Shakewell is rich in naturally occurring, hydrating electrolytes such as potassium, phosphorous, magnesium, calcium and sodium.
Moderates Blood Sugar
Whey protein has been found to be effective at moderating blood sugar, increasing both the levels of insulin and the sensitivity to its effect. Taking a whey protein supplement before or with a high-carb meal has been shown to moderate blood sugar in both healthy people and those with type 2 diabetes. Read more here!
