POWER OF PROTEIN FOR LONG-LASTING ENERGY
Most people are unable to maintain their energy or stamina as they go about their day. Take charge of your daily energy levels with our stamina-ENERGY enhancing protein drink. Plant based soy protein for long-lasting energy.

Protein is the building block of your body, like the bricks of your house. It is vital for every function in your body essential for growth and development. Shaklee ESP Mixed Soy Protein Isolate Powder is a delicious food rich in calcium and protein.*

DID YOU KNOW?

Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee invented the first soy protein isolate formula in 1961.

Glycemic index (GI) shows the effect a food has on blood sugar. Carbohydrates that break down quickly cause your blood sugar to spike and then plummet rapidly, leaving you feeling tired, irritable, and hungry. Instant protein soy food also has a “roller coaster” response.

With low GI Soy Protein, blood sugar levels remain steady, suggesting that it helps sustain energy, provides longer satiety effect and is beneficial for weight loss and long term health.*

The Shaklee Difference

Shaklee uses Non-genetically modified (Non-GMO) soy protein produced under Identity Preservation Program (IPP).
Each serving provides 14grams of Low Glycemic Index plant based protein. Soy protein helps reduce cholesterol.*
Has PDCAAS (Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score) score of 1.0- the highest rating possible and equal to that given animal proteins.
Provides 9 essential amino acids.
Rich in calcium which aids in the development of strong bones and teeth.
Note: Amount of soy protein recommended to give the lowering effect on the blood cholesterol is 25g per day.

Soy protein isolate offers a variety of benefits, making it a popular choice for many, especially those on plant-based diets or looking for a dairy-free protein source. Here’s a breakdown of its key advantages: (https://www.webmd.com/diet/what-to-know-soy-protein-isolate)

1. Complete Protein Source:

• Soy protein isolate contains all nine essential amino acids that your body cannot produce on its own. This makes it a “complete protein,” similar in quality to animal proteins like meat, eggs, and dairy. This is a significant advantage over many other plant-based proteins, which often lack one or more essential amino acids. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19145965/) (https://www.soyconnection.com/nutrition-and-research/is-soy-a-complete-protein#:~:text=Soy%20is%20a%20Complete%20Protein&text=So%2C%20if%20you’re%20looking,Learn%20More)

2. Muscle Growth and Recovery:

• Like other high-quality proteins, soy protein isolate can support muscle growth and repair, especially when combined with resistance training.⁵ It’s rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), particularly leucine, which plays a crucial role in triggering muscle protein synthesis. Studies have shown it to be as effective as whey protein for muscle gains in response to resistance training. (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9204525/) (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5302255/)

3. Heart Health:

• Soy protein has been linked to improved cardiovascular health. It can help lower total cholesterol and “bad” LDL cholesterol levels, and may even raise “good” HDL cholesterol. This is particularly beneficial as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol. (https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/01.cir.102.20.2555) (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31006811/#:~:text=A%20Meta%2DAnalysis%20of%2046,Total%20Cholesterol%20Concentrations%20in%20Adults) (https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/01.cir.102.20.2555#:~:text=In%20conclusion%2C%20it%20is%20prudent,cholesterol%20to%20promote%20heart%20health.)

4. Weight Management:

• Being a high-protein, low-fat, and low-carbohydrate option, soy protein isolate can aid in weight management. Protein promotes satiety, helping you feel fuller for longer, which can reduce overall calorie intake and support fat loss while preserving muscle mass. (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6105701/#:~:text=These%20results%20indicate%20that%20soy,for%20improving%20body%20weight%2C%20body) (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8838013/#:~:text=We%20hypothesised%20that%2C%20in%20adults,LED%20meeting%20the%20protein%20RDI%2C)

5. Bone Health:

• Soy protein contains isoflavones, plant compounds that may help maintain bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis, especially for women after menopause. (https://academic.oup.com/jcem/article-abstract/88/10/4740/2845764?redirectedFrom=fulltext&login=false)

6. Blood Sugar Control:

• Some research suggests that soy protein can contribute to stable blood sugar levels and may help improve insulin sensitivity, which is beneficial for individuals with or at risk of diabetes. (https://www.news-medical.net/news/20230315/How-does-soy-consumption-affect-the-risk-of-type-2-diabetes-and-cardiovascular-diseases.aspx#:~:text=In%20addition%2C%20animal%20studies%20using,glucose%20uptake%20and%20insulin%20sensitivity%2C)

7. Rich in Vitamins and Minerals:

• Soy protein foods are a good source of various vitamins and minerals, including B vitamins, iron, zinc, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium. Some fortified soy protein supplements may also contain calcium and vitamin D.

8. Antioxidant Properties:

• Soy contains antioxidants that can help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in the body, which can be beneficial for overall health and recovery from exercise. (https://www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/health/healthyliving/soybeans)

9. Dairy-Free and Gut-Friendly:

• For individuals with lactose intolerance or dairy allergies, soy protein isolate is an excellent alternative to dairy-based protein sources like whey. It’s often well-tolerated and can be easy to digest. (https://www.aafp.org/pubs/afp/issues/2009/0101/p43.html)

10. Versatile and Affordable:

• Soy protein isolate is widely available in powder form, making it easy to incorporate into smoothies, shakes, baked goods, and other dishes. It’s also often more affordable than some other protein supplements.

Important Considerations:

• While generally safe for most, some individuals may have a soy allergy. (https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/11320-soy-allergy)
• For those with certain conditions like gout or severe liver/kidney disease, it’s advisable to consult a healthcare professional regarding soy protein intake due to its purine content or potential impact on organ function.
• While soy protein isolate offers many benefits, it’s always best to consume it as part of a balanced and varied diet.

Why consume Shaklee ESP Isolate!

Shaklee ESP (Energizing Soy Protein) isolate is designed to serve as a comprehensive health supplement by leveraging the well-documented benefits of soy protein isolate, along with additional nutrients. Here’s how it generally works as a health supplement:

1. Provides High-Quality, Complete Protein:

• Essential Amino Acids: Shaklee ESP is formulated with non-GMO soy protein isolate, meaning it contains all nine essential amino acids necessary for the body’s optimal functioning.³ This makes it a “complete protein” source, comparable to animal proteins, which is crucial for vegetarians, vegans, or those seeking a plant-based protein alternative.
• Muscle Support: The protein in ESP helps in the maintenance, repair, and growth of muscle tissue. This is beneficial for active individuals, those looking to build lean muscle, and the elderly who need to combat age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia).

• Tissue Repair: Beyond muscles, protein is vital for repairing and building all body tissues, including skin, hair, nails, and organs.

2. Sustained Energy and Satiety:

• Low Glycemic Index: Shaklee ESP is designed with a low glycemic index, which helps to stabilize blood sugar levels. This can lead to sustained energy throughout the day, preventing energy crashes and helping to manage cravings.
• Weight Management: The high protein content promotes satiety, making you feel fuller for longer. This can reduce overall calorie intake and support healthy weight management goals. (https://www.shakleetoday.my/esp-all-day-long/#:~:text=DINNER,so%20you%20feel%20full%20longer.)

3. Heart Health Benefits:

• Cholesterol Reduction: Soy protein, particularly when consumed as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, has been shown to help lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and total cholesterol levels. Shaklee ESP contributes to this effect.

4. Bone Health Support:

• Calcium: Shaklee ESP is often fortified with calcium (e.g., 500mg per serving in some formulations), which is essential for strong bones and teeth, helping to reduce the risk of osteoporosis.
