FAQs

Vieve is a water-based protein drink with 20g of protein, 0 carbs, 0 sugars with no artificial flavours or colours.  We are fat free, 100% dairy free and gluten free as well.  What sets us apart is that we are a hydrating protein solution on the go – not a messy powder or milky drink.   We also use collagen peptides as the main source of protein in our drink which are easier to absorb than whey.    However what really sets us apart is our taste – we’ve spent two years developing what we think is the tastiest protein drink on the market.

Vieve is the first sports nutrition product and protein drink in the UK to be certified sugar free by Sugarwise. The Sugarwise marque is the trusted and recognised sign guaranteeing that the sugar claims made on packaging have been independently verified, and that the product is low in any of the sugars or sweeteners people need to limit, referencing World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines.

We use collagen as our primary protein source.  Our collagen is sourced from a bovine (beef) source.

We’ve spent over two years trying to develop what we think is the best tasting protein drink out there without skimping on any of the benefits including packing a sizeable 20g protein per bottle.   Collagen has many benefits vs whey:

1.     They are made of peptides (short protein chains) which need less digestion before being absorbed

2.     They are taste neutral, so more palatable with a range of flavours

3.     They are also colourless and soluble so you can add to clear liquids, gels or solids

Collage also contains many of the amino acids needed for health.    It is the essential protein that holds our body together. It makes up 70% of the dry weight of our body's tissue. As the most abundant protein in the human body, it creates the structure for the skin through amino acids that maintain skin elasticity and help create a healthy glow. As we get older, our bodies naturally produce less collagen, causing the typical signs of aging like wrinkles and sagging skin.

Our resident nutritionist Dr Carrie Ruxton who consulted on Vieve wrote a great blog aricle about the many benefits of collagen which you can find here:  https://drink-vieve.co.uk/blogs/news/move-over-whey-protein-here-comes-collagen

Sadly no we are not vegan/vegetarian due to the inclusion of collagen as our protein source.  We have been working on a Vegan protein which we are hoping to launch in the near future.

Yes :-)

Yes we are 100% lactose and dairy free unlike virtually every other drink on the market!  For those who have problems digesting whey protein drinks or powders we are an excellent substitute and also our peptide formula means it is easier to digest than milk or whey based drinks

Haha funny you should ask!  Vieve comes from the Urban Dictionary and means to be full of life.  It was the perfect fit for our brand as protein is obviously the building blocks of life.   For us it also encompassed our brand values and our personal philosophy of 'Grab Life'.   As for how to pronounce it ... well... We'll leave that up to interpratiation :-)

Vieve was created out of frustration with all the current protein products on the market and a desire for a refreshing, tasty protein solution on the go.  After taking protein supplements for over 20 years we were tired of artifically flavoured powders and milky drinks and all the mess associated with them.  There didn't seem to be any tasty protein sollutions on the market so we set about creating Vieve.

Vieve was founded by Rafael who currently manages all the operations of Vieve.  He is one busy guy!  You can read a profile on Rafael here:  http://startups.co.uk/vieve-rafael-rozenson/.
