Nourish Launches the First Instant Chia Protein Pudding – A Latina Doctor’s Mission to Redefine On-the-go Protein One Spoonful at a Time

TAMPA, December 16, 2024 - Nourish (Nourishsupermeals.com), a Peruvian-inspired organic protein brand that aims to make convenience nourishing for you and the planet, is launching its flagship product: the first high-protein, instant chia pudding. With 22g of plant-based protein and 5-6g of fiber per serving, Nourish aims to provide the protein content of a conventional protein powder or meal replacement—without the watery texture.

Unlike traditional chia puddings, which require hours to set, Nourish is ready instantly: just add water or milk to the powder and stir. Nourish is designed to keep busy, health-conscious consumers full for hours. Research shows that equivalent calories consumed in the form of solid, rather than liquid, meals may result in greater satiety and reduced overall daily caloric intake. This is especially relevant in today’s post-GLP-1 society, which values high-protein, high-fiber foods.

Nourish achieves its instantly spoonable nature thanks to its use of upcycled chia powder, a byproduct of cold-pressing chia oil. This allows Nourish to bypass the need for gelatins and processed binders. Nourish was inspired by the chia quinoa porridges the founder, Dr. Arianna Beetz, ate daily as part of her Peruvian upbringing. "Every time I had to 'drink' my meals in the form of shakes, I was unsatisfied. So I turned to my Peruvian roots and redefined my childhood breakfast."

Dr. Beetz founded Nourish after witnessing family members get sick from diseases related to poor metabolic health. Nourish has no added sugar, less than 10g of net carbs, and is designed to support gut health and balanced blood sugar levels. It is made with a combination of pea protein, a complete protein, sprouted brown rice protein (sprouting enhances nutrient digestibility), and gets its creamy mouthfeel from coconut milk and coconut shreds.

Nourish comes in two flavors: Chocolate Bliss and Almond Spice Lucuma. Chocolate Bliss features three types of chocolate: dark chocolate chips, cacao nibs, and cacao. "It has a touch of cinnamon, making it reminiscent of my Abuela's thick hot chocolate!" Dr. Beetz notes. Almond Spice Lucuma contains cinnamon, ginger, and lucuma, an Andean superfood with prebiotic properties. Known as the Gold of the Incas, lucuma tastes like caramel-butterscotch and is Peru's most popular ice cream flavor.

Dr.Beetz’ vision to nourish extends beyond people, to the planet. In partnership with Trees for the Future, Nourish plants one tree for every purchase and uses 40-50% recycled packaging.
