Redcon1 MRE Meal Replacement

Redcon1 MRE meal replacement is a 100% dairy-free meal replacement protein powder. Taking inspiration from the MRE's served in the military, Redcon1 has created a whole-food protein powder that combines real food.

One look at the ingredient panel & you will see Redcon1 is packed full of real food options including oats, sweet potato, beef protein & more.

Features:

• 100% Dairy-free
• Zero lactose
• Massive 520 Calories per serve
  
• Real food meal replacement solution on the go
• Wide range of flavors
• Amazing taste
• Mixes well in water

Directions:

For best results mix 1 serving (4 scoops) of Redcon1 MRE in 400ml of water or your chosen milk alternative for extra calories and shake. This can be consumed anytime when you need a boost in both protein and calories throughout the day, such as post-workout.

Our Thoughts:

Redcon1 MRE Protein Powder is a market leader and there is no other product on the market like this. Typically meal replacements/mass gainer protein powders are loaded with cheap sugars and slow-digesting milk-based proteins which reak havoc on your digestive system. MRE does not contain either of those and packs only real, quality food into each serve.
