Powdered Shakes
Protein powders, meal replacements, greens powders, collagen blends, and dry-mix supplements
Natural vitamin and mineral fortification for powdered shake manufacturers
Powdered shakes are the easiest fortification environment in food. No thermal processing, no degradation, no overage calculations needed - just dry-blend BIOVIT ingredients into the protein, collagen, or greens base and ship. The format where natural fortification carries through unchanged from supplier to consumer.
Live in-market proof at 24-month finished-product shelf life across dry-blended supplement and shake formats. The same shelf life applies whether the brand is positioning to sports performance, GLP-1 nutrient density, collagen and beauty, or daily wellness.
Samples available on request. Reformulation support included with every order.
Format Specification
Dry blending is the simplest fortification environment in food. No thermal processing means no nutrient degradation, no overage calculations, and the longest achievable shelf lives in the BIOVIT portfolio. The format where the technical complexity of other categories turns into a non-issue.
Natural ingredients built for powdered shakes
Three single-ingredient picks for powdered shake brands - chosen for the EFSA claims that drive purchase in this category (protein synthesis, muscle function, collagen formation) and the clean declarations supplement shoppers scan for.
Vitamin D3 (lichen)
Lichen-derived D3 carries the muscle function claim - a foundational nutrient for protein shake and meal-replacement formats. Dry-blends seamlessly into whey, casein, and plant protein bases.
Zinc (guava leaf)
Guava leaf Zinc carries the EFSA claim for normal protein synthesis - the most-specified mineral in the protein shake category. Plant-derived alternative to zinc oxide and zinc sulphate.
Vitamin C (acerola or amla)
Unlocks the full collagen, immunity, and energy claim suite for shake formats. Declared on pack as “acerola cherry extract” or “amla extract” - the cleanest declaration available in the category.
Three formulation-ready premixes for the powdered shake category
BIOVIT blends mapped onto the three commercial positions powdered shake brands compete on - sports performance, collagen and beauty, and the GLP-1 audience driving meal-replacement growth. Each retains full nutrient density through 24-month shelf life.
Sports Performance
Built for the protein and performance category - the largest commercial segment in powdered shakes. Covers the energy, muscle function, and protein synthesis claim cluster sports brands compete on, in a clean dry-blend format that holds full nutrient density through 24-month shelf life.
Collagen Support
For collagen-positioned shakes and supplements - one of the fastest-growing formats in the category. Combines Vitamin C with supporting nutrients to unlock the full collagen formation claim suite, with a recognisable plant-derived declaration.
GLP-1
Built for the 1.7m UK users on GLP-1 weight-loss medication using shakes as nutrient-dense meal replacements at lower portion sizes. Five premix variants from broad-spectrum to minimal-footprint, depending on the inclusion rate your formulation can support.

Frequently asked questions
Practical answers to the questions buyers and formulators ask most when specifying natural fortification for powdered shake formats - shelf life, dispersion, protein-base compatibility, and category positioning.
Up to 24 months ambient. Dry-blended BIOVIT ingredients carry full nutrient density through the shelf life when stored at or below 28°C and protected from light and moisture - matching the supplier-side shelf life of the source ingredients.
Yes. BIOVIT’s fine powders blend uniformly into whey, casein, soy, pea, hemp, and plant-blend protein bases. No dispersion issues, no separation in pouch or tub, and no impact on the protein’s solubility on reconstitution.
Typically no. Dry blending means zero thermal stress and zero degradation - the nutrient content at the start of shelf life is what reaches the consumer. The exception is moisture-sensitive nutrients in poorly-sealed pack formats, where Eiméar can advise on small overage cover.
Yes. Where the off-the-shelf blends above don’t map cleanly onto your positioning - sport-specific micronutrient profiles, women’s health ranges, beauty-positioned collagen blends - Eiméar formulates bespoke premixes per project.
Plant-source names rather than chemical names: “acerola cherry extract,” “guava leaf extract,” “lichen extract.” For a supplement shopper scanning the ingredients list against synthetic competitors, the BIOVIT declaration reads as a cleaner, more recognisable product.
Single ingredients: 1 kg MOQ with an approximate 1-week lead time. Premix blends: 5 kg MOQ with an approximate 4-week lead time. Samples available on request - contact the team to specify quantity and shipping arrangements.
Reformulation support is included
Every BIOVIT wholesale order comes with full technical reformulation support at no extra cost, giving your NPD and technical teams direct access to a qualified nutritionist from brief to production.
Eiméar Sutton RNutr MSc, our Head of Nutrition, leads the technical work on every account: equivalence mapping against your incumbent synthetic, inclusion-rate modelling, on-pack claim wording aligned to GB and EU regulation, and the small details that decide whether a synthetic-to-natural switch lands cleanly on the production line.
The result: shorter development cycles, fewer reformulation rounds, and a finished product your commercial team can stand behind.
