Two of the most popular shakes on the market, they stack up fairly similar in terms of nutrition, price, value, etc. Who wins? It mostly comes down to preference, but Advocare is $0.50 cheaper per shake.
This comparison gets into a competition between two of the larger shake companies / manufacturers on the market – Advocare and Isagenix. These are two of the more ‘household’ names in the network marketing weight loss industry, and both are very established in terms of company, products, etc.
You probably saw Drew Bries endorsing Advocare in the latest Superbowl commercial even.
But lets put them head to head and see which one actually comes out on top!
1) Isagenix Isalean is More Dense in Vitamins and Minerals
One thing that first jumped out at us when comparing these two shakes was the difference in vitamin and mineral content. All the way down the line, Isagenix has significantly more daily value of almost all vitamins and minerals. Some attribute this to a higher quality product, but for the most part, it’s just them fortifying the products more.
This is definitely an important part to consider, but isn’t a breaking point for Advocare. It just means you’ll probably need to supplement your nutrition from other sources.
2) Advocare is about $0.50 Cheaper per Shake
When you compare the cost-per-serving for both of these products, you’ll see clearly that Advocare is about $0.50 cheaper per shake (only $3.21 compared to the $3.71 from Isagenix). While this isn’t a huge difference, it definitely adds up over time when ordering monthly packs of shakes. At a shake per day, that’s about $15 per month different.
3) Similar Macronutrients
One thing that we were fairly surprised at was the very similar makeup of macronutrients in both of these shakes. All the way down the category, these shakes all offer almost the same nutritional values. May be a little off here and there, but usually no more than about 10% in a particular category.
Summary – It’s up to You!
In the end, these products are very similar. Isagenix is a little bit more nutritionally dense, but Advocare is a bit cheaper. Which one is best for you? Well you’ll have to determine if either of those are big determining factors.
Also check out the prices for each on online stores like Amazon to see if you can get a lower price per shake than going through the company store. I’m often amazed at how much cheaper both of these products can be on there.
