In addition to being able to buy the Vidafuel Wellness Protein Drink in a multi-serve carton, health-minded individuals can now pick up a convenient two-sip serving size of the product formulated to support muscle mass, strength, joint and bone health. This blend of whey and collagen protein, now in a single-serve shot, delivers 20 grams of protein per pouch—and with it, all 20 amino acids and no artificial sweeteners, monk fruit or stevia.
Available in Berry Delight and Citrus Burst flavors, this compact, fast-digesting protein shot offers a straightforward solution to refueling on the go, without the unpalatable texture of some thick and chalky protein beverages or the heaviness of a protein-forward full meal.
