The New GNC

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of GNC The opinions and texts are all mine.

One of the most common questions I get asked is what kind of protein powder do I use. It varies depending on my needs, but I have recently switched over to only plant-based proteins and adapting to a more plant-based diet. I’ve been adding protein powders to my daily green smoothies to make sure I get enough protein throughout the day. I know it can be overwhelming at times to choose a dietary supplement, especially when there is so much out there. The New GNC has made it very simple and user-friendly to help you find what you need. When first walking into the store you will find that each shelf is categorized to make it easier to find what specifically you’re looking for.

I wanted a new plant-based protein powder and immediately found it without any assistance. There were a few options for Proteins from Nature that varied in flavors and prices. Automatically Vega and Warrior stood out to me, but I couldn’t make a decision.

The GNC employee noticed me right away and came over to assist. He asked me if I had any questions. I went on to explain that I want to add more protein in my green smoothies, and that I’ve been working out at a boot camp. He then told me that choosing a neutral flavor like vanilla would be best since I’m making my own smoothies and I didn’t need the Vega Greens since I already add my own. He then said Vega Sport is probably the better choice over Vega One since I’m working out and need to repair muscle. It was also $44 which was $10 cheaper than Vega One.
