Planet Smoothie Encourages Customers To Pick Your Protein, Featuring Three Protein Packed Smoothies

"Planet Smoothie offers a variety of protein options all year-round and to kick off the New Year, we're highlighting them in three delicious protein packed smoothies," said Nicole Butcher, national marketing manager for Planet Smoothie. "Our Planet Pro proteins have been reformulated to remove sweeteners and additives, leaving a superior, clean flavor while still packing a protein punch."

According to WebMD, Protein is an important component of every cell in the body, which helps to build and repair tissues. It is an important building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood, making it a "macronutrient," meaning that the body needs relatively large amounts of it. With up to 26 grams of protein, Planet Smoothie features three great options to help achieve your body's protein needs.

Pick Your Protein Promotional Smoothies

• Strawberry Powerhouse (new) – Planet Pro Whey protein, strawberries, bananas, Greek yogurt, whole grain oats, chia seeds (21g total protein*)

*Based on 22oz size

Planet Smoothie also offers LeanLeaf® sweetener, made from stevia, one of the sweetest plants on the planet. This unique, all-natural sweetener utilizes only naturally-occurring sugars that do not adversely affect blood glucose levels, providing a more natural option for those seeking to live a healthier lifestyle.

Planet Smoothie's Pick Your Protein promotion runs from Jan. 1, through April 29, 2018.
