Frequently Asked Questions About Plant-Based Diets

How to start a plant-based diet?
If you’re starting a plant-based diet, there’s no need to jump on the gas. Ease your body slowly by ensuring you’re filling your necessary food groups. For example, take small steps like  swapping your chicken for tofu or whole milk for oat milk in your morning latte. 

As times change, more options become available – like our meal replacement protein shakes – making plant-based diets easier to manage. 
How do you get protein as a vegan?
Finding proper nutrition on a plant-based diet can sound complicated. In truth, many foods offer the same level of proteins as animal-based options; you just have to find them.

Tofu, lentils, and legumes are great for any plant-based diet, with healthy helpings of protein. Better yet, soy offers 31 grams of protein per cup and a complete amino acid profile, making it a complete protein. Experimenting with these options will fill your body with the nutrition it needs. 
What is a good plant-based meal plan? 
When starting any diet, it’s essential to make sure you’re filling your necessary food groups. Ensure you receive the necessary proteins, like soy, legumes, nuts, and quinoa. Substitute our Soylent protein shakes as a meal to get your all-needed nutrients, including soy protein and 20% of your daily vitamins & minerals. 
Why should I switch to a plant-based diet? 
A plant-based diet won’t just help you lose weight. Switching your diet can lead to long-term health benefits for your health and the planet. A plant-based diet may lead to a lowered risk of cardiovascular disease, improved mood, diabetes prevention, and improved body weight. 

You won’t have to stress finding the right foods: Soylent makes it easy. 
What is a “Portfolio Diet”?

"This is my absolute FAVORITE plant based nutritional drink. As a vegan who really missed drinking vanilla ensures when life got too busy and I didn’t have time to eat a full meal. I was super disappointed with when I tried ensures vanilla plant based drink. It was awful and tasted nothing like the original! I went ended up trying a few others that were all disappointing to say the least and then I tried Soylent. Bro…game changer. Literally if you enjoyed vanilla ensures at all when you had dairy then buy the vanilla Soylent NOW! It taste very similar but in my opinion better. My husband also enjoys the ensures and drinks them often and I always encourage him to give the vegan versions of things a try and he said he loved it way better as well. We both agree it fills you up (we’d usually have to drink 2-3 ensures to even feel full) and doesn’t leave you feeling bloated unlike ensure. I would absolutely recommend this product no matter your dietary preference it’s delicious!"

"I have tried so many vegan meal shakes and none of them taste this good and ACTUALLY MAKE ME FEEL FULL. I was literally putting vegetable oil into the previous shakes I was drinking just to get some fat content. But this is a total game changer. I was even skeptical at first. Big rec."

"The banana flavor is a nice change of pace from the usual chocolate or vanilla I usually have to confine myself to with vegan protein shakes. Maybe a little more expensive that other 20g vegan shakes I've seen, but in the ballpark of most others. If you like banana flavoring, you'll enjoy this."
