If you\u2019re looking for a dairy-free protein shake that\u2019s allergen-friendly and anything but boring, Rebbl is one of the best options we\u2019ve tried. Instead of whey, they use an\u00a0upcycled plant protein blend, which\u00a0Rebbl describes<\/a>\u00a0as a novel ingredient created from destarched grains, a by-product from the brewing industry that would otherwise be thrown away. Combined with pea protein, it provides all nine essential amino acids to support muscle recovery, as well as prebiotic fiber for added gut health benefits.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis protein drink is a great choice for individuals with\u00a0lactose intolerance<\/a>\u00a0or those who choose a vegan diet,\u201d explains Ballenthin. \u201cBecause both pea protein and the added agave inulin act as prebiotics, some people may experience mild bloating. If that occurs, it can help to start with smaller servings and gradually work up to a full bottle.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nutrition and weight loss writer\u00a0SaVanna Shoemaker, RDN<\/a>, tested the Rebbl drinks and describes the texture as slightly thick, smooth, and creamy, without being chalky. \u201cThese were some of the best-tasting and best-textured shakes I tried,\u201d says Shoemaker. \u201cThey\u2019re USDA Organic, non-GMO, and many flavors are vegan, though some are sweetened with honey.\u201d<\/p>\n

In terms of taste, Shoemaker found the lineup to be a mix of standouts with only a few misses. \u201cThe Lavender Tea Latte was delicious \u2014 like a mild and creamy cold chai tea \u2014 and one I\u2019d definitely buy again,\u201d she says. \u201cThe protein dark chocolate was mildly sweet with a rich flavor, while the vanilla had an overwhelming cinnamon note that was too strong for me.\u201d She also points out that while the adaptogens<\/a>\u00a0and botanicals (such as\u00a0ashwagandha<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0maca<\/a>) make these shakes unique, the small amounts in each serving may not be sufficient to have a meaningful effect.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, Rebbl shines for people seeking lactose-free protein shakes with creative flavors. While the flavors may be hit or miss, the smooth texture, adaptogen blend, and robust flavor options make it a standout among plant-based options.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019re looking for a dairy-free protein shake that\u2019s allergen-friendly and anything but boring, Rebbl is one of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":366325,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[49,48,84,395],"class_list":{"0":"post-366324","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nutrition","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-health","11":"tag-nutrition"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/366324","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=366324"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/366324\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/366325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=366324"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=366324"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=366324"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
