Breakfast has long been recognized as the most important meal of the day. Not only should this meal provide essential nutrients and energy, it should keep the tummy from rumbling before lunch time. That’s just what new Atkins Day Break Shakes are designed to do. From Atkins Nutritionals Inc., Denver, each ready-to-drink, low-carb breakfast shake contains 10-grams protein (from a dairy protein blend consisting of milk protein concentrate, calcium caseinate and whey protein concentrate), 3-grams (or less) net carbs and 0-grams sugar. Not only does one “fill up” from the protein, each serving also contains 7-grams of fiber from polydextrose, carrageenan and various cellulose ingredients. Shake varieties are: Creamy Chocolate, Strawberry Banana and Wild Berry. They come four to a pack and have a suggested retail price of $6.99.
