Fuel by Strive - Optimal Meal Replacement for GLP-1 Therapy - Hydrolyzed Collagen Protein
The High Protein and High Fiber Meal Replacement Shake
Clinical Focus:
Fuel is a scientifically designed nutritional supplement created to optimize gut and metabolic health. This meal replacement shake features a unique blend of macronutrients, fiber, polyphenols, and bioactive nutrients tailored to promote a balanced microbiome, enhance metabolic functions, and support overall health. By addressing microbiome imbalances, Fuel helps mitigate inflammation, improve nutrient synthesis, and regulate energy metabolism.
Potential Benefits:1,2,3,4,5
- Supports healthy digestion and reduces bloating.
- Promotes a balanced microbiome for improved metabolic efficiency.
- Enhances immune system tolerance and antimicrobial capabilities.
- Strengthens intestinal barrier integrity to prevent endotoxemia.
- Reduces inflammation and supports joint health.
- Encourages weight management and insulin sensitivity.
Key Ingredients & Actions:
Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides
- Provides 20g of bioavailable protein per serving.
- Improves gut integrity, reduces inflammation, and supports joint health.5
Grain-Free Plant-Based Fiber
- Contains 9g of diverse fibers, including beet, apple pectin, flaxseed, chia, and inulin.
- Enhances short chain fatty acid (SCFA) production, supporting gut health and balance.6
Polyphenols and Antioxidants
- Includes extracts from blueberries, acai, and cruciferous vegetables like kale and broccoli.
- Reduces oxidative stress, modulates inflammation, and supports microbiota diversity.2,3
Healthy Fats
- Features plant-based fats from avocado and coconut oil.
- Provides keto-friendly energy and promotes a diverse microbiome.
How It Works:
Fuel works by targeting the gut microbiome, the central hub for metabolic and immune regulation. Key mechanisms include:
- Microbiome Optimization: Fiber and polyphenols promote beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus while reducing pathogenic strains.3,6
- Gut Barrier Support: Collagen peptides and fiber improve intestinal barrier function, reducing inflammation and promoting nutrient absorption.5
- Metabolic Efficiency: Ingredients like flaxseed and chia may enhance fat metabolism and insulin sensitivity, contributing to healthy weight management.7
- Systemic Benefits: Antioxidants and SCFA production regulate immune responses, cardiovascular health, and overall energy balance.6,7
- Harmonious Hormone Levels: Fiber supports hormone balance by binding to excess estrogen in the gut, promoting its elimination and aiding overall hormonal health during fat loss.8
Why Choose Fuel?
Fuel is more than just a shake—it’s a complete meal replacement designed to support your journey to optimal health. By prioritizing gut health, Fuel lays the foundation for better metabolism, improved digestion, and enhanced overall well-being. Its high-protein content not only supports muscle maintenance but also nourishes the gut microbiome, amplifying the benefits of a balanced diet. Fuel and GLP-1 therapies create a synergistic approach to achieving sustainable weight management and vibrant health.
