WITH NATURESPLUS® ULTRA HAIR THICK-SHAKE (GROWTH FORMULA)
Shake Recipes From Bart's Cookbook 🕮 Who's Hungry? © 2024 by Bart Smith
RECIPE INTRODUCTION
If you’re in a hurry like me many times, or just lazy, why not whip up a delicious protein shake loaded with all the right stuff (i.e., vitamins, minerals, fiber, and other good-for-you ingredients). Making a shake in the morning takes literally five minutes and you’re off to start your day!
So, when it comes to (protein) shakes, you've got several choices. For ME, what I like to do is make the kind of protein shake that actually benefits ... MY HAIR too! Let me explain ... You see, I already eat enough protein from all the right dietary choices I make. (i.e., what I eat on a daily basis) What I (really) wanted was something that could help me maintain (and grow) healthy hair and I found it! Check this out ...
EQUIPMENT NEEDED
For me, I'll get out the following kitchen items to make myself one of these amazing shakes.
❑ NINJA BLENDER OR REGULAR BLENDER What kind of blender do you have? Any regular blender will do, but if you can afford it, get yourself a NINJA BLENDER. They’re powerful, convenient, fast, and easy to clean.
SHAKE INGREDIENTS
Take your pick. I like to alternate between (#1) a chocolate protein shake for workout recovery and a breakfast option, and (#2) a NaturesPlus® Ultra Hair Thick-Shake (a.k.a., "hair shake) when I want to boost hair growth and hair care.
With 15+ flavors, over 204,900+ (4.6★) ratings for this whey powder, check out all the perks you get for your money:
Gold Standard 100% Whey (24g of protein per serving) to help build and maintain muscle when taken over time with regular resistance training.
5.5g of naturally occurring branched chain amino acids (BCAA and 11g of naturally occurring essential amino acids (EAAs) per serving to support muscle recovery.
Great before or after exercise, between meals, with a meal, or any time of day when you need extra protein.
Banned substance tested and the highest quality control measures so you feel comfortable and confident consuming the product
Whey protein isolate (WPI) is the primary ingredient with excess carbs and fat ‘isolated’ out for a total of 24 grams of protein. With a wide range of great-tasting flavors and easy mixing with only a glass and spoon, there’s no doubt ON Gold Standard Whey is the gold standard choice of protein powder.
NaturesPlus Ultra Hair Thick Shake powder is what I default to when making my "protein" shake 1-3 days per week.
This "hair shake" powder is AMAZING FOR YOUR HAIR. I've been using this very brand for 20+ years. My experience goes like this:
( #1 ) "I'll have a HAIR SHAKE!" (Yummm!)
( #2 ) Within 24-36 hours, my hair FEELS and LOOKS HEALTHIER and FULLER! Go figure!
So, for me, when I include all the other ingredients in my hair shake, such as almonds, a banana, mixed frozen berries, some flaxseed powder, among other items, blend it up, and yummmm!!!
This shake, and any other kind, are great to have after a workout! They cool you down and they're good for you AND YOUR HAIR all at the same time!

BART'S PERSONAL
"HAIR SHAKE" RECIPE
Here's what I put in my world famous HAIR SHAKE, which I might have 2-3x per week:
★ 6 oz. Cold WATER, yes, WATER! Zero calories unlike using any kind of milk, etc.
★ 1 Banana (Potassium, magnesium, regularity, etc.)
★ 1 Cup Frozen Mixed Berries (Chills shake, adds berry flavor!) Personally, I choose to have only frozen blueberries in my shakes. Too many berries have seeds and I don't like that in my shake. So, if you're shopping for frozen berries, see if you can find a blueberry-only frozen bag.
★ 1 Scoop "NaturesPlus" Hair Shake Powder - or - protein powder (brand and flavor of your choice) if you don't have any NaturesPlus hair shake powder on hand. I keep both on hand.
★ Handful of Almonds (Healthy fats, vitamin E, copper, magnesium, and high-quality protein)
★ (OPTIONAL) 1 small scoop or tablespoon (or container scoop) of some kind of green powder such as Amazing Grass Greens Blend Antioxidant and/or Beat Root Powder and/or Collagen Peptides. These extra additions to your shake just give it the kind of kick that I like my shake to have. Hey, why not, right?
★ (OPTIONAL) 1 Tbsp Flaxseed Powder (“Good” fats, fiber, vitamin B1, etc.)
From time to time, I will alternate powders and flavors (i.e., chocolate, vanilla, almond, strawberry, etc.) and certain greens or super food powders as well.
SLURP IT UP!
I hope you enjoy my shake recipe as much as I do and you see the same benefits I do.
