Mental Wellness Protein Powders

MUD\WTR Expands Beyond Coffee Alternatives with its Nourish Launch

MUD\WTR is redefining what a protein shake can be with tomorrow’s launch of 'Nourish,' billed as the first-ever mental wellness protein powder. Nourish delivers 25 grams of complete plant-based protein along with clinically studied nootropics, adaptogens, functional mushrooms, and gut-friendly probiotics.

Available in 'Peruvian Cacao' and 'Madagascar Vanilla,' the formula is crafted to support not just physical recovery, but also focus, mood, and digestive health. Ingredients like Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps mushrooms aid in memory and sustained energy, while nootropics and prebiotics reinforce the brand’s 'brain-first' ethos. Certified USDA Organic, the blend is free of fillers, oils, and artificial sweeteners, offering a new kind of shake for individuals who want both muscle and mindfulness.

Nourish launches today exclusively through MUD\WTR’s website.
