🧪 Formulation Notes

Does not contain gluten

Lean Meal: Highest Quality Ingredients and Formulation When used with a balanced whole foods diet, Lean Meal is designed to help promote an optimal intake of protein, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals needed for overall wellness. Lean Meal is made with a proprietary native whey protein concentrate from grass fed dairy cows. This is done so in a way that maintains a full range of the fragile immune-boosting and regenerative components naturally present in fresh raw milk. It is produced using proprietary filtration and drying which involves minimal processing. This unique production method ensures that the whey is not subjected to temperatures that would destroy key health-promoting compounds. This superior protein comes from herds that graze year-round on disease-free, pesticide-free, chemical-free, natural grass pastures.

Milk from grass-fed cows has many times higher levels of CLA and contains a proper balance of essential fatty acids. The milking cows are never fed grain or subjected to any growth hormone treatment, chemicals, antibiotics, genetically modified organisms, hyper-immunization or injected pathogens. The result is the highest quality protein formulation available.

Better than Soy Whey protein is nature's richest source of biologically active protein. Unlike soy protein, which is low in the amino acid methionine, whey protein contains all the amino acids the body needs in the proper balance.

Notice: This is a natural product that may exhibit color, taste, and density variations from lot to lot. It contains naturally occurring nutrients; therefore amounts may vary within the whey protein and flavor profiles.
