USA: Nothing But Real launches oat-based protein shakes

US health food start-up Nothing But Real has announced the launch of its first product: a chocolate flavour drink containing oat and pea protein.

Launching in May, Nothing But Real Oat Chocolate & Protein Drink is described as being made from whole grain oats, lightly sweetened with pure maple syrup. Offering “hunger-busting” benefits, it is claimed to contain “an optimal blend of 8 grams of easily absorbable oat and pea proteins”.

The drink’s founders reportedly spent two years creating a patented process to manufacture a drink free from additives such as carrageenan, gellan gum and processed sugars.

In addition to oats, pea protein and syrup, the drink is described as containing pure water, cocoa powder, agave syrup, vanilla extract, organic canola oil, monk fruit extract and sea salt. The retail price is $4.69.
