Our whey is produced from original herds of cows that are not given recombinant bovine growth hormone (RBGH) or bovine somatotropin. Our protein also comes only from grass-fed cows.

Yes, stevia was approved for sale in the United States in December 2008.

Chia is rich in nutrients. When it inter-fuses with the protein and liquid, it creates a SuperFood that helps stimulate your metabolism, nourish your body and satisfy your hunger, so you can reach your weight management goals. *Our Chia has gone through a patented micro-milled technology that opens the seed without losing any of the nutritional properties. This micro-milled process makes the nutrition in Chia easier for your body to absorb.

Since Chia is highly hydrophilic (it absorbs water), it expands in the stomach giving you a pleasant feeling of satiety or fullness and if you feel full, you’ll be less likely to overeat.

Soluble fiber dissolves in water and forms a gel-like substance. It is great for moderating blood glucose levels and promotes digestion and heart health. Soluble fiber is found in peas, beans, lentils, oatmeal, and the pectin of fruit. Insoluble fiber does not swell or dissolve in water, and passes through the digestive system in much the same way it entered the system.

Chia is believed to decrease recovery time and fatigue from cardiovascular workouts by promoting muscle tissue repair.*

Chia seeds can help maintain optimal hydration levels since they absorb water and slow down the absorption of food, thereby modulating hydration levels. They are also complex carbohydrates and very high in protein, omega-3 fatty acids and several minerals, so these nutrients are supplied to our bodies slowly to help and maintain endurance levels.

NurishID contains whey protein that comes from milk; however the process removes 99.9% of the milk by-product, therefore making the shake virtually casein and lactose free, but technically not dairy-free.

NurishID Vegan does not contain whey protein, so it will not contain the milk by-product.

The natural flavors are listed on the product labels.

Pregnant or nursing mothers should consult their physician and follow all safety instructions before beginning any exercise program or using any supplement or nutritional product.

In a reversal of an earlier opinion, the FDA has decided that all instantized whey proteins must contain a warning for soy on the label because lecithin is a naturally occurring ingredient in the manufacturing process. Although it is present only during the whey extraction phase of the process in trace amounts, and undetectable in the final formula by testing procedures currently available, since soy is on the list of food allergies, the FDA has determined that all instantized whey products must contain the warning.
