Behind the increase
But our raw material costs have increased our costs considerably over the past 12 months and due to these costs we have have no choice but to increase costs to be able to continue to give you the best service and products possible and still be able to run our business efficiently.
Unlike other shake based products, our smoothies contain whole foods and these are expensive – and also very good for you!
Our smoothies contain over 24 vitamins and minerals and we use NO FILLERS , no added sugar and no artificial ingredients – every single ingredient has health benefits and they also contain ingredients – such as flaxseed, pumpkin seed and psyllium hulks – which make the taste, flavour and results so different to other brands.
And even with this increase the smoothies are still one of the best value and lowest price product around. And you can see a full comparison with other brands too here.
Plus the smoothies contain no added sugar, are 96% sugar free and are 100% fructose free and do not contain any artificial sweeteners or ingredients
Why The Healthy Mummy Smoothies Are Different
We are recommend by Midwives, Doctors and Nutritionists – you can see Midwife reviews here and Nutritionist reviews here
It is accelerant and filler FREE
We are proud to say that our Smoothie is free from any fillers and weight loss accelerators. Many many weight loss shakes contain fillers and weight loss accelerants to trick your body into short term – and unhealthy weight loss.
These artificial fillers make your tummy feel temporarily full are not natural and the long term effects are not known. They can also lead to a lot of the side effects associated with ‘shakes’.
It contains wholefoods
The Healthy Mummy Smoothie contains wholefoods and over 25 vitamins and minerals. The product is high quality and every ingredient in the smoothie has been included to be a benefit to your health. Most shakes do not provide this high quality and the reason you will see many ‘giveaway’ offers on TV with these brands is because their product is extremely cheap to make and do not use the wholefoods and high quality vitamins and minerals that we do – so it is very cheap to make and their product is topped up with sugar and fillers to bulk it out.
It is dairy and gluten free
Today many people have allergies to dairy and gluten so our smoothie is free of both of these. We use non genetically modified Soy Protein Isolate which uses only the protein part of the soy – not the oestrogen part of the soy.
It is breastfeeding friendly
We do not use any caffeines or weight loss accelerants in our smoothies so that breastfeeding mums can use it. We also included fenugreek in the smoothie to be an additional benefit – and if you are not breastfeeding, fenugreek can still be a great benefit to your health as it provides carbohydrates, dietary fibre, fats and minerals like iron, calcium and phosphorous. We have thousands of emails each month from mums on our plans who report improved milk supply from using our smoothies, but if your baby has any food sensitivities or suffers from colic we recommend talking to your Dr before changing your diet or using our products and plans.
It is a formulated meal replacement & passes international standards
Our smoothie is a formulated meal replacement and has passed International Food Standards. It provides your body with over 24 vitamins and minerals and the focus is on optimal nutrition. Some other ‘shakes’ on the market are only a protein shake or supplement.
This means they cannot be used as a meal substitute as they do not contain enough nutrients and energy to fuel your body and consumers can often be mislead into thinking a product called a Shake is a meal replacement when it is not. You can see a comparison table with other shakes here
