Description

Sanjevani Vegan Sustain is a nutrient-rich shake mix ideal for vegans, individuals sensitive or allergic to soy and/or dairy, or those seeking an alternative source of quality protein. Choice of Vanilla or Chocolate.

Sanjevani Vegan Sustain:

  • Supports Protein Metabolism and Healthy Body Composition*
  • Supports Cardiovascular Health*
  • Supports Gastrointestinal Health*
  • Supports Antioxidant Systems*
  • Provides Essential Micronutrients*

Sanjevani Vegan Sustain features Vegan Protein Complex™, an all-natural pea and rice protein blend; Aminogen®, a plant enzyme that enhances protein digestibility and absorption; and Artinia® chitin-glucan, a novel fiber that supports antioxidant systems in the body. This fructose-free formula provides an array of micronutrients as well, including high-potency vitamins C and B12, activated B vitamins, and Albion® TRAACS® chelated minerals (the real amino acid chelate system).*

Sanjevani Vegan Sustain contains these key nutritional ingredients:

  • Vegan Protein Complex™, a proprietary blend of highly digestible pea protein concentrate, pea protein isolate, glycine, taurine, rice protein concentrate, and L-glutamine, is the cornerstone of Sanjevani Vegan Sustain. Aminogen is added to enhance protein digestion and absorption.[1] The combination of pea protein and rice protein achieves an amino acid score of 100% and supports protein metabolism and healthy body composition.*[2]

Protein is required for cell and tissue repair, hormone and enzyme synthesis, and a variety of metabolic functions. It is especially important for maintaining lean body mass during increased physical activity. Protein supplementation has been found to be a determining factor in increasing fat-free mass and exercise-stimulated fat oxidation. Subjects who consumed a significantly higher protein intake (~80 g/d versus ~59 g/d) experienced a significant increase in fat oxidation and fat-free mass with a significant decrease in fat mass and body fat percentage.[3] Studies have indicated that increased protein intake enhances satiety[2,4-6] and supports diminished food intake during subsequent meals.[7] One randomized crossover study suggested that pea protein was superior to milk protein with respect to satiety and intermeal interval.[8] Research has also demonstrated that pea protein stimulates release of cholecystokinin and glucagon-like peptide 1, gastrointestinal hormones that modulate appetite sensations.*[9]

While pea-based protein provides a satisfying and versatile source of protein, it also supports cardiovascular health. Animal studies have suggested that it positively affects lipid homeostasis by modulating gene expression; that is, upregulating genes that affect hepatic cholesterol uptake and downregulating genes that affect fatty acid synthesis.*[10,11]

  • Artinia® Chitin-Glucan is incorporated into Sanjevani Vegan Sustain to support antioxidant activity and cardiovascular health. Artinia is a purified, insoluble, gluten-free fiber ingredient composed of chitin (N-acetyl-D-glucosamine) and beta(1,3)-glucan chains.[12] Artinia has been researched for its effects on maintaining oxidative balance and artery health, key components of cardiovascular health. A 12-week animal study indicated that chitin-glucan supports cardiovascular health by maintaining healthy arteries, reducing cardiac superoxide anion and liver malondialdehyde (markers of oxidation), and enhancing superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activity.*[13]

Human trials have revealed significantly positive results as well. A six-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (n = 130) of Artinia revealed that 1.5 g/d significantly supported subjects’ LDL cholesterol at levels already within normal range, and 4.5 g/d significantly supported subjects’ natural antioxidant systems and oxidative balance of LDL cholesterol.[14,15] A 28-day pilot study found Artinia to be safe and well-tolerated at a dose of 4.5 g/d.[16]

  • Sanjevani Vegan Sustain provides 2.25 g of Artinia per serving. Artinia is a healthy alternative to phytosterol supplementation and has not been observed to interfere with absorption of fat-soluble vitamins or antioxidants.*
  • Micronutrient Support Vegan Sustain delivers a balanced profile of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, nutrients vital to supporting the vast array of metabolic processes in the body.[17] B vitamins are present in their bioactive forms, including riboflavin 5’-phosphate, pyridoxal 5’-phosphate, methylcobalamin, and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate as Quatrefolic®.*[18]
  • Fructose-Free 
  • Glutamine The conditionally essential amino acid glutamine is important for replenishing amino acid stores, especially after exercise or stress.[24] Glutamine also supports intestinal cell proliferation and thereby preserves gut barrier function and intestinal health.*[25-27]
  • Inulin This soluble fiber is fermented by colonic bacteria into short-chain fatty acids that exert a positive effect on lipid metabolism and support healthy colon transit time.*[28,29]
