Nutrition Nugget: Premier Protein Drinks

Nutrition Nugget: Premier Protein Drinks

Author: Jenn Trepeck September 12, 2025 Duration: 14:29

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about Premier Protein, to see if these popular protein drinks live up to the hype. She assesses the marketing of Premier Protein drinks, which heavily emphasize a "flavor-first" approach and boldly state they "never sacrifice flavor for nutrition." Jenn questions this premise, pointing out that most people turn to a protein shake for its nutritional value, not only for its flavor. She dissects the nutritional facts and ingredient list, looking for what a "flavor-first" approach might add or miss altogether. What does Jenn uncover that makes her conclude this might be a pass for her? Like what you're hearing? Be sure to check out the full-length episodes of new releases every Wednesday.  Have an idea for a nutrition nugget?  Submit it here: https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/index.php/contact/
