If you're health conscious and want the benefits of a plant-based diet, Lean Body is the perfect on-the-go solution. Vegan Friendly. Non-GMO. Gluten Free. Informed Choice certified — independently tested for banned substances. Packaged in an earth-friendly, FSC-certified Tetra Pak carton with a re-closeable, recyclable, plant-based cap derived from sugarcane. Shake well and serve cold. Refrigerate after opening.

Pea Protein Isolate + Brown Rice Protein Concentrate — Why This Combination

Plant-Based Lean Body's protein architecture is built specifically around Pea Protein Isolate and Brown Rice Protein Concentrate — a deliberate two-source combination rather than a single plant protein. Pea protein is naturally rich in the branched-chain amino acid Leucine (the primary trigger for muscle protein synthesis) and lysine, but is relatively limited in the sulfur-containing amino acid methionine. Brown rice protein has the inverse amino acid profile — richer in methionine, but more limited in lysine. Combining the two sources produces a more complete amino acid profile than either plant protein alone provides, addressing the incomplete amino acid limitation that single-source plant proteins are commonly criticized for. This is also the mechanism behind Lean Body Plant-Based's claim of no gritty texture like that of ordinary plant protein shakes — the specific isolate and concentrate processing methods used for each protein source contribute to a smoother final product than many single-source pea or rice protein RTDs achieve.†

Why No Gritty Texture — A Common Plant Protein Complaint Addressed

One of the most consistent criticisms of plant-based protein powders and RTDs is a chalky, gritty, or sandy mouthfeel — a texture problem stemming from the way plant proteins are processed and their lower solubility compared to whey. Labrada specifically markets Plant-Based Lean Body around solving this problem, using isolate-grade pea protein (rather than cheaper pea protein concentrate) combined with the smoothing effect of Gellan Gum (a stabilizing hydrocolloid) to produce a texture more comparable to a traditional dairy-based protein shake.†

Stevia and Monk Fruit — The Natural Sweetener System

Rather than relying on artificial sweeteners like sucralose or acesulfame potassium — common in many protein shakes including some of Labrada's own dairy-based Lean Body formulas — the Plant-Based version specifically uses Stevia (Rebaudioside A) and Monk Fruit Extract, both natural, zero-calorie sweetener sources. This aligns with the clean-label, whole-food-adjacent positioning that plant-based protein consumers commonly prioritize, alongside the small amount of Cane Sugar included (at less than 2% of total formula) for flavor rounding.†

Informed Choice Certification — Verified for Tested Athletes

Plant-Based Lean Body carries Informed Choice certification — an independent third-party testing program specifically designed to verify that sports nutrition products are free from substances prohibited by WADA and major sports governing bodies. Every batch of Informed Choice certified products is tested using validated anti-doping lab methods before it reaches consumers. For competitive athletes in tested sports — including vegan and plant-based athletes who may have fewer verified-clean plant protein options available — this certification provides meaningful assurance beyond standard label claims.†

Sustainable Packaging — The Sugarcane Cap and FSC Tetra Pak

Lean Body believes in protecting the environment by using sustainable packaging. Plant-Based Lean Body Ready-To-Drink Shakes come packaged in earth-friendly, FSC Certified Tetra Pak cartons — paper sourced from responsibly managed, sustainably harvested forests — and have a re-closeable, recyclable, plant-based cap derived from sugarcane rather than conventional petroleum-based plastic. For a vegan, plant-forward product line, this sustainability commitment extends the brand's ethos beyond the ingredient list into the packaging itself.†

The Labrada Quality Guarantee — Since 1995

Labrada Nutrition, founded by 1985 Mr. Universe champion Lee Labrada, performs independent third-party product testing at analytical laboratories across its entire product line — a practice the brand has maintained since 1995. With Labrada, you can be sure that your product meets label claim: "If it's on the label, it's in the bottle!" This commitment applies to Plant-Based Lean Body the same as every other Labrada product, providing verified assurance that the stated 30g protein content and complete ingredient panel accurately reflect what's actually in each carton.†

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Does this shake need to be refrigerated before opening?
   No — the FSC-certified Tetra Pak aseptic packaging keeps Plant-Based Lean Body shelf-stable at room temperature until opened. Once opened, it must be refrigerated and consumed promptly. For best taste, serve cold and shake well before opening.†

2. How does the plant protein blend compare to whey for muscle building?
   The combination of Pea Protein Isolate and Brown Rice Protein Concentrate produces a more complete amino acid profile than either plant protein alone, addressing the amino acid limitations that single-source plant proteins are commonly criticized for. While whey protein still has a research edge in leucine content and absorption speed, a well-combined pea-rice blend at 30g per serving provides substantial, complete-profile plant protein appropriate for muscle support in a vegan diet.†

3. Is this the same product as regular Lean Body RTD?
   No — Labrada's standard Lean Body RTD uses a dairy-based LeanPro protein blend (whey peptides and casein) at 40g protein per serving. Plant-Based Lean Body is an entirely separate, vegan formula using Pea Protein Isolate and Brown Rice Protein Concentrate at 30g protein per serving, with no dairy or animal-derived ingredients.†

4. Is Plant-Based Lean Body appropriate for tested athletes?
   Yes — with the added assurance of Informed Choice certification, meaning every batch is independently tested for substances prohibited by WADA and major sports governing bodies. This is particularly valuable for vegan and plant-based competitive athletes seeking verified-clean plant protein options.†
