Fairlife Nutrition Plan Protein Shake, 30g
A lower-sugar, ready-to-drink protein shake that may be useful when a simple protein option is needed.
Why it received this rating
Fairlife Nutrition Plan provides 30 grams of protein with relatively low sugar and calories, which can be helpful when appetite is low. However, it is still a dairy-based shake, and tolerance to milk proteins, sweeteners, and thicker drinks can vary.

Portion and preparation guidance
One bottle counts as a full protein serving on its own. On low-appetite days, sip it over 20 to 30 minutes instead of drinking it quickly; cold and over ice can make it easier to finish.
Symptoms or considerations
Thirty grams of drinkable protein arrives faster than the same protein chewed as food, so some people feel full or slightly queasy if they drink it fast. It is lactose-free but still dairy, so a milk-protein sensitivity can matter. The sweetener blend reads very sweet to some GLP-1 users whose taste has shifted.

Review current fairlife Nutrition Plan Chocolate labelCommon questions
Is the Fairlife 30g shake a good choice on a GLP-1?
For many people, yes: 30g of protein for 150 calories with 2g of sugar is one of the leanest protein-to-calorie ratios in any ready-to-drink shake, which is useful when appetite is low but protein targets still matter. Individual tolerance varies, especially with dairy or very sweet flavors.
Is it lactose-free?
Yes. It is made from ultra-filtered milk with the lactase enzyme added, so it is lactose-free. It still contains milk protein, so it is not dairy-free.
Can it replace a meal?
It can stand in when eating a full meal is not realistic, but it is 150 calories, so relying on it for many meals in a row leaves total intake very low. Ask your clinician or registered dietitian if you need individualized targets.
