Vega One® Organic

Can Vega One be used as a meal replacement?

Vega One Organic is a food—so you can enjoy it anytime you would eat other foods you love—meals, snacks or anywhere in between. Check the Nutrition Facts Panel to ensure that it has the amounts of macro and micronutrients that you are looking for.

Can Vega One help me lose weight?

We love this question because we get to talk about nutrient density (AKA the amount of nutrients compared to calories). Vega One Organic is a nutrient dense food, so you can use it any way that you would use a food. You can enjoy it on its own or as a part of your favorite smoothie. You can even cook with it, making pancakes or muffins (and you can find recipes at MyVega.com/recipes). Vega One Organic tastes great, and offers 20 grams plant-based protein, veggies and greens, and 4 grams fiber in 150 calories. If you’re trying to lose weight, consult your health care practitioner to know what’s right for you.

Is it ok if I drink more than one serving of Vega One Organic in a day?

Even good things should be enjoyed in moderation and we suggest you eat Vega One as part of a balanced diet. If you have questions about your specific nutrition needs, it’s best to talk to your health care practitioner.

How much caffeine is in Mocha or Chocolate flavored Vega One Organic?

The approximate value is based on information from our suppliers (which may change based on natural variations in the plant-based ingredients).
