Comparing YL Meal Replacement Powders

Look no further for your meal replacement powder or protein powder! Young Living has it all. With 5 different options, you are sure to find one that fits the profile of what your body needs and your taste buds enjoy.

In this blog I’m going to share the nitty gritty details for those who want to dive deep into each powder option.

Before I go on, I want to share a reminder that these powders work well when incorporating them into a healthy diet. Take the guess work out of your daily life by first, planning ahead. Make a list of goals. Whether your goals include replacing a few meals a week with shakes, saying no to fast food and yes to more nutritious options, tightening your overall food budget, weight management, or on-the-go energy, it’s all possible with Young Living’s flagship products to assist you.

Below you will see the comparison between protein content, calorie count, sugar content, digestive enzymes added to the formula, and extra facts.

Note that Power Meal, Balance Complete and the Slique Shakes are all considered full meal replacements. Pure Protein Complete is a protein powder formulated to give your body the needed protein before or after a workout and strenuous activity, although it is not a full meal replacement. If you were to want extra protein, plus a full meal, I like to add a scoop of Pure Protein Complete to a scoop (half serving) of one of the three meal replacement powders.

Note that below I only mention the facts for the Vanilla Spice version of Pure Protein, although the Chocolate is very similar except for the taste and slightly different flavoring ingredients. Both are delicious depending on the vanilla or chocolate flavor you prefer.

Product Facts & Ingredients List

When it comes to ingredients, you may know a few things your body does really well with and a few things to avoid. For instance, some people do okay with whey protein and some do better with a vegan protein source such as pea protein or pumpkin seed protein. One thing that Young Living takes into account is the lack of nutrients that are found in foods today, and even the lack of nutrients in live fruits and vegetables you may consume on a daily basis. To make up for this deficiency, you will notice ingredients like …
