roba1930 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 My apologies if someone has asked this, but I searched through the forum and website and did not find any answer. Is it acceptable to drink Zeal Wellness drink? Thanks for the assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted July 6, 2015 Administrators Share Posted July 6, 2015 Morning, No, the Zeal beverages (wellness & protein) are not compliant due to pea protein (legume), rice bran ingredients and sweeteners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munkers Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Read the ingredients label. Are all of the ingredients compliant? A google search gave me the following ingredient list: Ingredients: Proprietary ENRICH blend (soluble stabilized rice bran & rice germ, fructooligosaccharide, moringa oleifera powder, guarana seed powder, gotu kola, alfalfa (leaf) powder, chlorella, broccoli (sprout) extract, cranberry powder), proprietary RESTORE blend (milk thistle extract, bacopa Extract, ashwagandha, green tea extract, wild blueberry powder, turmeric extract, red ginseng, grape seed extract, L-arginine, glycine, lysine, tyrosine, ornithine, yerba mate, kudzu, fennel), proprietary PROTECT blend (aloe vera powder, aloe polysaccharide concentrate, gogi berry extract, acai berry powder, noni juice powder, ionic minerals & fulvic minerals), crystalline fructose, stevia, natural flavors, natural colors, citric acid, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), d-alpha tocopherol (vitamin E), retinal palmitate (vitamin A), niacinamide (vitamin B3), pyridoxal 5 phosphate (vitamin B6), thiamin, riboflavin, cholecalcipherol (vitamin D3), folic acid, biotin, methylcobalamin (vitamin B12). This has at least three different sweeteners in it, rice bran, and rice germ. Considering that the Whole30 is free of grains and free of sweeteners (including stevia), this points to a big, fat nope.
