Vitamins and protein :(
I am in love w the protein shake mix from complete nutrition..they r low in sugar ..carbs .and they come in great flavors and taste great..not powdery...I mix them w milk and can get 40 to 60 grams of protein on a shake...I have tried smores..banana cream..cookies and cream...they will also give u samples to try before you buy..very reasonably priced..it surprised me..
