It doesn’t matter what your diet is, whether you’re a dedicated vegan, part-time veggie or full-on flexitarian, everyone could do with more plants in their lives.
If you’ve recently gone veggie or vegan, you might find it difficult to hit your macros and vits as you adjust. To make that jump to a veggie or vegan diet that little bit easier, we’ve created the Plant-Based Discovery Box.
A box of goodies to help you discover your new go-to snack, cult favourites and what supplements make all the difference to your fitness and overall health.
And what’s even better?
For every box sold, we’ll plant one tree at one of our tree planting projects with (more:trees).
What is (more:trees)?
(more:trees) by THG Eco is helping businesses and individuals make a positive impact on the environment by planting trees. You can plant a tree as an individual or as a business on one of our projects.
You might be wondering what this has to do with the Plant-Based Discovery Box. Well, for every box sold, (more:trees) will plant one tree on your behalf.
Why trees?
We all know that more trees can only be a good thing — but why?
Well, for a few reasons. First off, trees store carbon, absorbing 0.3 tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere over their growth life. They also restore important habitats for wildlife like insects, animals, plants and fungi — which has a positive effect on the whole ecosystem.
Tree-planting projects also help to reverse the damage done by deforestation, helping healthy forests to re-emerge.
Tree-planting projects can also help to boost local economies, providing jobs for residents.
Where will my tree be planted?
(more:trees) has tree planting projects in Kenya, Haiti and Madagascar.
The biggest project at the moment is taking place in Mida Creek, Kenya, where THG has its own plot. At this site, (more:trees) is planting mangrove trees, which are estimated to absorb four-times more carbon than an average tree, and help to protect coastal lines, nourish farmland and aid re-forestation.
What’s in the Plant-Based Discovery Box?
Flavdrops — Cheesecake
Add something sweet to your meal without the added calories or sugar.
Flavdrops are a must-try in my book. Drop into your coffee, onto porridge or into your protein shake without adding any calories or sugar to your meal. Ideal for anyone looking to create a calorie deficit or lose fat.
And in Cheesecake flavour? ‘Nuff said.
Vegan Double Dough Brownie — Peanut Butter
This vegan brownie packs 14g of plant-based protein into a deliciously doughy brownie layered with peanut butter and cookie dough.
Taste, texture and macros come together in harmony in this snack. Perfect with a cup of tea at that 3pm slump or post-workout when you just can’t wait for your protein shake.
Vegan Multivitamin Gummies — Lemon
Who said vitamin gummies were just for kids? Because I don’t want to be friends with them.
These Multivitamin Gummies contain nine essential vitamins and minerals and wrap them up in a delicious Lemon flavour. They taste so good you’ll never forget to take them.
This vit covers all bases, helping to stock you up on all the vits you need.
Clear Vegan Protein — Blackcurrant
Remember drinking squash after school with a snack? Well, we upgraded that nostalgic beverage and packed it with protein to provide you with the ultimate summer protein shake.
Clear Vegan Protein is infused with real fruit and added B vitamins, as well as 11g of protein to fuel those ve-gains. And in this classic Blackcurrant flavour, you’ll have a brilliant initiation into the clear family.
Vegan Protein Crisps — Barbeque flavour
Are you a sucker for that crunch-factor? Good, because these crisps will not disappoint.
Vegan Protein Crisps deliver 11g of protein per pack, and just 100 calories. But the best news is you’d never guess it. Crunchy, full of flavour and macro-friendly, they already have GOAT status when it comes to snacks.
Relax Shot — Peach
Whether you’re a certified gym-rat or take a more chilled approach to fitness, rest is one of the most important factors.
So destress and prepare for a good night’s sleep with the Relax Shot. Featuring essential vitamins and herbal extracts like chamomile and lemon balm, you’ll be chilled and snoozing in no time.
