A Shot to Help Close the Daily Protein Gap

At certain times, your body needs more protein to heal, stay strong, and recover1-2. Poor appetite, chewing issues, or illness can make that challenging. Fresubin PROTEIN Shot is here to help, offering a complete high-quality protein blend and all 9 essential amino acids. 

The protein your body needs can vary, but some conditions may require added protein while avoiding added calories to prevent overfeeding and related adverse outcomes. When facing diseases that make it hard to maintain muscle, both protein quantity and quality are essential3-5.

Small Volume, Big Impact

  • Tiny: 20 g of protein in just 40 ml

  • Complete, high-quality protein blend: Containing all 9 essential amino acids

  • Zero sugar, zero fat: Helps avoid extra non‑protein calories

Fresubin's Apple-flavoured Protein Shot is a small shot that helps to close the daily gap, with 20g of protein in 40ml, including all 9 essential amino acids.

Not All Protein Shots Are the Same

Protein quality is just as important as quantity. The Essential Amino Acid (EAA) profile determines how well your body can use protein. 

Fresubin PROTEIN Shot is formulated with a blend of three protein sources; hydrolysed collagen, whey protein isolate and amino acids, achieving a Protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score of 1, the highest possible rating for protein quality. 

That means every one of those 20 g of protein in each 40 ml pouch is working as hard as it can to help maintain your muscle mass and support your recovery.

Freusbin's Protein Shot contains all 9 essential amino acids: Histidine, Leucine, Isoleucine, Phenylalanine, Lysine, Methionine, Tryptophan, Valine, Threonine.

Options That Fit Your Routine

Take Fresubin PROTEIN Shot in a way that works for you:
 
  • As a convenient shot: Take 40 ml straight from the pouch
  • Added to recipes: Make it your way
  • Via tube feeding: For a non-oral protein boost
