Turmeric and garam masala 180 high protein cheese snacks

high_protein_cheese_ballsBy 180 Nutrition

Guy: These are divine… For me spices + cheese = heaven! So when Caroline sent me through this recipe for the turmeric and garam masala 180 high protein cheese balls, I got very excited.

These make for an excellent vegetarian high protein snack. Have them for your dinner with your favourite veg or pop them in your lunch box and snack on them throughout the day. These natural snacks of goodness would beat any synthetic protein bar or supplement any day!

And if you are wondering which cheese to use. My rule of thumb is the more mature/fermented the better. Just stay away from your processed sliced and creamed cheeses etc. Continue reading

Guy Lawrence, Director 180 Nutrition

After months of planning and mountains of phone calls and emails, the team at 180 Nutrition are proud to offer the 180 Protein Bar. While we continue to love our 180 recipes and smoothies, we also recognise that managing a healthy diet can be a challenge when the pressures of life and work come into play.

The 180 Bar will help you:

  • Quickly and effectively refuel ‘on-the-fly‘ after a workout
  • Avoid bad food choices when the mid-afternoon craving hits
  • Add a healthy and nutritional option into your kids diet
  • Cut your intake of foods packed with chemicals, flavourings & preservatives

Say Hi To Our New Ingredients

Let’s face it – the majority of snack/sports bars available today suffer from the same problems as their powdered counterparts – low grade ingredients, artificial additives, preservatives and a list of chemicals that you need a PhD to understand.

If you know 180 already, you will soon realise that two of our new ingredients are already present in the Original 180 Formula. (If you don’t you can check the ingredients here)

180 Nutrition are not on a mission to add as many different ingredients as possible to our products. Good nutrition is quite simple and you know us – we believe that nature can provide all the nutrition your body needs.

This is what we added to the Original 180 Formula  to build the 180 Bar:

  • Almonds

    Almond Paste

    Long been declared as a ‘Super Food’, almonds are an incredible source vitamin B6, riboflavin, dietary fibre, and minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, calcium and zinc.

  • Sesame Seeds

    Tahini Paste

    Made from ground sesame seeds and contains virtually zero measurable trans-fat or cholesterol, tahini is a great high source of vitamin A, magnesium, folate and calcium, and is especially abundant in phosphorus and potassium.

  • Organic Rice Malt

    Organic Rice Malt

    A natural binding ingredient where the low GI carbohydrate from the brown rice releases energy over a longer period of time. Contains no fat or cholesterol of any type and is 100% fructose free.

Common Ingredients That We Will Not Use

The typical snack/museli bar will contain many of these ingredients: emulsifiers (soya lecithin 476), polydextrose, glycerine, maltitol, maize starch, maltodextrin, sucralose, humectant (glycerol), vegetable oil, glycerine, gluten, hydrolysed collagen, salt, flavourings, colouring… 

Our Ingredients & Nutritional Information per 45g bar: 180 Proprietary Blend (Whey Protein Isolate*, Flaxseed Meal, Cocoa Powder [chocolate flavour only], Almond Meal, Sunflower Kernels, Coconut Flour, Sesame Seeds, Chia Seeds, Pepitas, Psyllium Husks, Inactive Dried Yeast, Stevia) Organic Rice Malt, Almond Paste, Tahini Paste.Energy:764kj, Fat: 6.8g, (Sat Fat): 1.1g, Protein: 10.9g, Carbs: 19.8g, Sugar: 9.5g, Fibre: 3.2g

We are incredibly excited to launch the 180 Bar. It’s another step in turning an industry built on chemicals and empty promises upside down.

Improve your diet for pregnancy

diet_for_pregnancyBy Guy Lawrence

Eating a healthy diet on a daily basis can be confusing at the best of times, especially if you want to improve your diet for pregnancy. During pregnancy and breastfeeding it can be overwhelming and a little scary on whether you are making the right nutritional choices for a healthy pre/post pregnancy diet. Depending on what you are eating on a daily basis it is possible that you may not be meeting your nutritional requirements for good health.

How well you eat during and after pregnancy will have a big impact on you and your baby’s health.

Improving your diet for pregnancy

As you can imagine, your nutritional requirements dramatically increase during pregnancy. Your baby needs the extra nutrients to grow and develop with all available nutrients going to the baby first… and you second. This can lead to nutritional deficiencies that can leave you feeling tired and run down during pregnancy and result in a slower recovery.

With this in mind, each meal needs to be nutrient rich to cope with the increased nutritional demands.

180 Natural Protein Superfood will help you meet those needs. All of our ingredients are derived from natural food sources making it a fantastic source of nutrition to help you get those extra nutrients and valuable proteins daily. Protein is an essential macro-nutrient (from the protein, fat and carbohydrate family) needed for optimum health, it is even more essential during pregnancy.

If you believe that 100% natural ingredients are better for you than products packed with preservatives, chemicals, artificial flavours and colours… then you are in the right place as 180 Natural Protein Superfood ticks all of those boxes.

natural ingredients

It is completely free of all synthetic ingredients, sugars & preservatives. A whole-food protein supplement that contains essential micro-nutrients, fatty acids, antioxidants and fibre to assist metabolic rates and keep your digestive system functioning at optimum levels, a whole-food protein supplement that is actually healthy for you!

You can simply take 180 as a smoothie for breakfast with your favourite fruit which can be prepared in under 2 minutes or snack on it throughout the day. We have dozens of healthy recipes for you to choose from here.
