Tasty Plant-Based Proteins: Tropical Coconut All-In-One
The new Tropical Coconut Shake is a must-try for all coconut lovers, and the star ingredient of this recipe. Naturally-sweetened with plant-based Stevia, this yummy protein powder is made with real, whole food ingredients to help keep you full and promote total body health.
There’s 15g of protein in just this shake powder alone, from proven plant proteins brown rice, pea and hemp. This tropical-tasting meal replacement shake also contains 5g of dietary fiber for great digestion; vitamins and minerals to help promote full-body health; and probiotics to support a healthy gut, strong immune system, and positive mental state.
Essential Fiber & Antioxidants: Bananas
Next, the addition of a frozen banana in this recipe not only provides extra-creaminess and a thick texture, but also a ton of fiber and antioxidants! The fiber from the banana can help to keep you full and satisfy your appetite in between meals, to avoid snacking. Fiber also helps ensure your digestive processes are working optimally.
Bananas are also high in many nutrients and antioxidants including vitamin C, B6, manganese, and potassium – which all play a vital role in regulating blood sugar levels and supporting healthy skin, hair, and bones. In addition, vitamin C, in particular, is a powerful antioxidant that can help build up your body’s defenses so you can fight off sickness and disease.
Healthy Weight Promoting Fats: Coconut
Next, let’s talk about coconut! This scrumptious Coconut Latte Shake recipe wouldn't be the same without the addition of coconut milk and shredded coconut flakes – which not only makes this shake super-yummy, but also provides vital health benefits. Along with adding to this drink's blissful tropical flavor, coconut milk can help promote healthy weight due to the beneficial medium-chain triglyceride (or MCT fats) included within it.
Because your body can metabolize MCTs differently than other types of fat, they are absorbed more quickly, so they can be used more rapidly for instant energy. While you obtain some MCT benefits from coconut milk, you will get even more benefits by utilizing pure MCT Oil, a concentrated dose derived from coconut oil, and a great mind and body boost to add to smoothies and lattes!
