Shakeology Alternative
There are many, many products that will work as a Shakeology alternative. I’ll include a list below so that you can consider this option when looking. Some I have had good experience with and even still buy. Others I cannot comment on because I don’t have any experience with them. Others, I just didn’t like. One thing is for sure. Each person has their own preferences when it comes to taste, texture and consistency. So it pays to try different ones. One thing I highly recommend with whatever you choose, is to try it for at least 30 days. That way you are certain to feel the benefits and experience what they will do for you!
So why have a Shakeology alternative you ask? A lot of people just want to find something that cost less. Bottom line. They look at the price and that’s what they go by. “Good enough” will sometimes do. Now I believe that is true in certain circumstances, but not when it comes to overall health. One should not cut corners there.
Here are some products to use as a Shakeology Alternative.

+ Products I really like and still purchase from time to time
As you can see, there is no shortage of a Shakeology Alternative you can try. The are lots of options and most taste pretty good. There are few nasty ones on the list above and I don’t think certain ones are a very good Shakeology Alternative at all. I bet, just by reading them, you know which are low quality and can be bought off of any grocery store shelf and give you very little health benefits if any. They really aren’t a Shakeology alternative at all, but I thought I would throw them on there because I know many people who think they are good options due to clever marketing!
Now, I have to admit. All of the products in that list are not really a Shakeology Alternative at all. When you actually compare side by side what each of them contains, how they are made, where the ingredients come from and what they actually do for the body, you will find that they aren’t in ideal option as a Shakeology Alternative. Not really. You may find a few “similar” names of ingredients when you read the label, but if you are smart person who actually does your research, you will find that most are like comparing a brand new car to a beat up bicycle with flat tires. There really isn’t a comparison and the only similarity in this lame example is that it’s about two vehicles.
OK, let me make my Shakeology alternative point in a different way. Look at the Ingredients and where they are sourced. DO YOUR RESEARCH. I’m hoping the all caps made a point. The products about truly are not the optimal Shakeology alternative! Many shakes are synthetic or have have been made from who knows what. But when you look at Shakeology you know the product is made from…whole food! And these things don’t come cheap. You see, Beachbody wanted to create the absolute best shake out there. So they didn’t skimp on quality and they are picky about the sources where they get the ingredients from. Shakeology consists of over 70 natural ingredients that come from incredibly rich, nutrient-dense whole-food sources from all over the the world. There isn’t a single food item that exists to give you everything you need like vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and protein the way Shakeology can. It’s such a healthy product! There is no Shakeology alternative when it comes to good heath!
Another plus is that nothing is chemically made in some facility. Other ingredients you won’t see like you do in many of the Shakeology alternative shakes above are artificial sweeteners, fillers, and sugars.
So, yes, the ingredients that make up Shakeology are expensive. Superfoods cost a lot and ensuring these foods are farmed with integrity and organic where possible, those things come with a price tag. But they also come with the comfort of knowing you are putting nothing but amazing nutrition in your body. A true scoop of health in each shake that no Shakeology alternative can deliver. So, you get what you pay for.
Shakeology Alternative The Cost Factor
Here’s a way to put things into perspective. Think of your daily ritual. Do you buy your lunch each day? Stop by Starbucks? Pick up some snacks from the gas station? You see, people seem to think that you pay additional money when you buy Shakeology. Actually you save money!
Settling for a cheap Shakeology alternative will not give you all of the benefits either. You need fuel for your body as well as all of the other ingredients that impacts performance, digestion and more!
Shakeology only costs $3-4 a meal (serving). I look at it as only $21 of my weekly grocery budget. Not bad for what you get out of it and how I feel after I have had my shake! Compare this to the average cost of a lunch from a restaurant – $6 – $10. Dinner can be well over $10. Even a meal that you prepare at home such as chicken, veggies and a yam can be about $3 – 4 if you get the regular chicken that is low quality.
Let’s talk about the cost in calories. Some of the Shakeology alternative products listed require at least 2 servings to get halfway to the nutrition that Shakeology has. And that may be a stretch. Restaurant food. Let’s take the value meal at Subway… healthy food, right? Even those healthy subs average 450 – 600 calories. Shakeology is 150 – 170 calories based on the flavor you choose.
I have talked to some people that really felt they were having to make dramatic changes to their budgets to get Shakeology. That is until they stepped back, kept track of their spending for a whole month. Once they did that activity, Shakeology was a budget save for them and way more convenient on their time!
Don’t settle for some cheap, unfulfilling Shakeology alternative. Get the real thing. Your body, health, fitness and wallet will thank you!
There simply is no Shakeology Alternative as you can see above!
