Daily Sunshine! Kid Smoothies - YES!

What is Daily Sunshine?

Daily Sunshine (available in Chocolate  and Strawberry Banana is a premium 3-in-1 healthy smoothie that was designed and formulated for kids. In addition to a kid-approved taste, it provides the building blocks of nutrition that kids need every day-whole-food based fruit and veggie blend, plant-based protein, and healthy fats. It's also a wholesome, healthy snack for adults!

I was lucky enough to get a sample pack when I was in New Orleans for my Coach Summit! I was totally thrilled to try this!! My kids are ALWAYS into my shakes and you know what, even though I don't mind, they tend to leave 1/2 drank shakes around my house!

That stuff is GOLD and I am not a fan of waste!! I tell them 100 times to only use 1/2  a scoop and NOPE.  But a shake that is all theirs? Yes!! I'm game BUT how will they really like it??

My 9 year old daughter reviewed BOTH- which we be ordering?

DAILY SUNSHINE MEDICAL CONCERNS

Anyone with questions about whether using Daily Sunshine is right for them should consult their doctor.

INGREDIENTS

Why is stevia present in Daily Sunshine? Stevia is a plant-based sweetener; no artificial sweeteners are used in Daily Sunshine.

Why are there slight differences in vitamin/mineral levels among flavors? There are slight differences due to flavor-specific ingredients.

Can specific amounts of individual ingredients be obtained? No. The specific amounts of ingredients in Daily Sunshine are proprietary to Beachbody but the Nutrition Facts box on the label provides the key nutrition information you need to make good food choices.

Does Daily Sunshine contain caffeine? Chocolate Flavor Daily Sunshine has organic cocoa powder and natural chocolate flavor. Because caffeine is a constituent of cocoa and chocolate, Daily Sunshine may also have some caffeine—but in very small amounts. To put this into perspective, according to the USDA, a cup of hot chocolate (made from cocoa) contains 5mg of caffeine. A cup of brewed coffee contains 95mg of caffeine. If you have concerns about low levels of caffeine, you may want to use Strawberry Banana Flavor Daily Sunshine.

DAILY SUNSHINE MEDICAL CONCERNS

Anyone with questions about whether using Daily Sunshine is right for them should consult their doctor.

Is Daily Sunshine safe for pregnant/nursing women? Daily Sunshine was not specifically formulated for pregnant or breastfeeding women. So as with any other food or supplement, pregnant or breastfeeding mothers should always first consult with their physician to address their specific needs, especially since each pregnancy is unique for the mother and developing baby.

What is the minimum age recommended for Daily Sunshine? 4 years of age and up.

What issues might first time users' experience? Daily Sunshine is a food with all the ingredients Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS). The ingredients do not include any top allergens. We do not foresee any ingredient related side effects, medical or nutritional concerns.

Does Daily Sunshine Contain Any Nuts?

There are no peanut or tree nut ingredients in Daily Sunshine and we take significant precautions to prevent any nut-based ingredients from being included in the product. In addition, we follow strict FDA Good Manufacturing Practices in creating Daily Sunshine, which includes thorough cleaning and sanitation of all equipment and surfaces the product comes in contact with prior to producing Daily Sunshine.However, because some consumers may have extremely sensitive reactions to major allergens, such as tree nuts, Beachbody wants to be as transparent as possible. This is why we include a statement which you will see on many food products today, that Daily Sunshine is made in a plant that also processes eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, & wheat ingredients. We do this so that anybody who has an extreme reaction to any of the listed ingredients should have as much information as possible and if they have concerns, to first consult with their physician before trying a new product.

Daily Sunshine vs. Shakeology

Can I drink Daily Sunshine and Shakeology?

Yes! For example, adults can start their day with Shakeology, then drink Daily Sunshine as a healthy afternoon snack.

While we recommend drinking both Shakeology and Daily Sunshine once daily, you may choose to drink another serving based on your nutritional goals.


How Much Protein Does Each Smoothie Contain?

Daily Sunshine has 10 grams of plant-based protein, which is approximately the same amount as a glass of low-fat milk or a couple eggs.

Shakeology has 16 to 17 grams of protein, either from whey isolate and plant-based protein sources or exclusively from plant-based protein sources in our vegan flavors.


How Many Calories Are in Each?

Daily Sunshine contains 120 calories per serving.

Shakeology contains 140-170 calories, depending on the flavor.


Why Are the Container Equivalents Different?

Daily Sunshine counts as ½ green, ½ purple, and ½ red, while Shakeology counts as 1 red.

Shakeology is an “excellent” source of protein as it contains between 16 and 17 grams of protein, and between 140 to 170 calories per serving, depending on the flavor. This makes it perfect for one red container.

It also has a vast array of other nutrients, but given how wide-ranging and exotic they are, they don’t fit as neatly into a specific container.

Daily Sunshine contains less protein (10 grams), which is considered a “good” source, so ½ red makes sense. It also delivers the equivalent of a full serving of fruits and vegetables based on USDA guidelines.†

Because this is done using combination of both fruits and veggies, the most accurate representation is ½ purple and ½ green.

†Concentrated powder equivalent to 1 full serving of fruits and vegetables. 5/8 serving of fruit (Chocolate – 4.45 g dried apple, strawberry, and blueberry powders) (Strawberry Banana – 4.5 g dried apple, strawberry, banana, and blueberry powders) and 3/8 serving of veggies (1.95 g dried sweet potato and spinach powders) per smoothie. Each 28 g serving provides the equivalent of ½ cup fruits and vegetables (volume before drying).


They Both Contain Whole Food-Based Ingredients

The organic whole fruits and vegetables that we put in Daily Sunshine are first inspected and cleaned, then pureed, strained, dried, and ground to a powder. That’s how we deliver whole food ingredients in a healthy, delicious smoothie every day.

Yes, the Shakeology philosophy is to use ingredients that are as close to their natural, whole-food state as possible to help maximize nutrition and still make it convenient so that it can be enjoyed on a daily basis. As a result, Shakeology includes many incredible whole food-based ingredients from around the world that provide a wealth of superfood nutrition all in one shake.


Daily Sunshine and Shakeology Are Both Vegan


Both Chocolate and Strawberry Banana Daily Sunshine are vegan, soy-free, and dairy-free.

Shakeology has four vegan flavors that are also dairy-free and formulated without soy: Chocolate, Tropical Strawberry, Café Latte, and Vanilla.


They’re Both Gluten-Free

Daily Sunshine meets the gluten-free definition set by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which sets a gluten limit of less than 20 parts per million (ppm) for foods labeled “gluten-free.”

This limit was established by the FDA since it stated that “most people with celiac disease can tolerate foods with very small amounts of gluten.”

Shakeology is formulated without gluten ingredients.


Are They Both Certified Organic?


Daily Sunshine is made with organic fruits and vegetables, and organic pea protein as certified by Quality Assurance International (QAI), a USDA-accredited organic product certifying agency.

Due to Shakeology’s global sourcing, certifying every exotic ingredient is very complex. However, the possibility of a completely organic Shakeology is being researched. Stay tuned!
