I was just totaling up my calories in my spreadsheet today when I realized that I did not have the calories for booster juice in there (you can download the cheat sheet fave foods with nutrition data and calorie counter in the members area here with the other tools and resources). I drink the Mind Over Matcha most times and it’s been popping up a lot lately in my daily calories as my after workout shake. So I needed the data.
Road Trip!
Off I went to Booster Juice, pulled out the binder they keep by the straws and napkins and voila… the nutrition data for the glorious Booster Juice Mind Over Matcha. I was a little shocked at the carbs as it’s a little under half of what I get in my low calorie fat burning cycle days but there you have it.
I get an extra booster shot of whey protein when I go. The extra shot adds 24 grams… so 4 calories per gram of protein means add an extra 96 calories to the total below if you put the shot in.
Here are the Calories And Nutrition Data For The Booster Juice Mind Over Matcha
Sodium 360 mg
Carb 79 g
Fibre 3 grams
Protein 30 grams
Fat 7 greams
Calories 495
I have thought about buying a juicer what’s your opinion?
Thank You
Timothy
Sometimes I really want one and other times I would just rather enjoy eating the veggies and the fullness that it gives me. Even though I like the quickness of juicing, I find it it a little too easy to get my carbs up sometimes when I don’t actually have to chew through everything!
Thank you, that really helped, I am going to buy a juicer
Thanks for this nutritional info! It’s my favorite Booster juice…and perfect for post-workout in the morning!
Hey!
Thanks for the info, I don’t understand why they willingly provide this information in-store but won’t include it on their website
Any chance you happen to know further breakdown of this smoothie with regards to the calories? I substitute ice for the frozen yogurt because I’m vegan…and get soy protein instead of whey protein…and am trying to figure out what my nutrition count would be.
Thanks!
Jennifer, as far as total calories it’s 495 but subtracting in and adding different ingredients… not really sure what portion of calories each ingredient occupies.
Jennifer, I am not vegan but a vegetarian. It is more important for us to get the protein and iron sources with in our diets and I STRONGLY recommend that you start taking the whey protein rather than soy protein or try to find hemp protein at a local GNC. It is a much better alternative!!
Soy is one of the biggest health frauds out there especially the supplies we get from North American farms. It is not fermented and NOT beneficial.
In fact it depletes very important minerals like IRON from our systems which , as a vegan, you really need to make sure you’re getting. I fell for the soy my self for the last few years and with more and more research have found that it is completely counter productive to your health, here is a website to check out.

Whey is not vegan, it comes from milk. Lentils have as much iron and protein as lean steak.
Jennifer: I can confirm part of what Danielle is saying is true.
The part about soy, is definetely true. The problem is not soy itself, but how it’s produced these days.
The part I have to disagree with is that she’s recommending Whey protein… which is just pure poison to your body.
I used to be a vegan myself, and that’s how I found out about Hemp protein powder, which Danielle is also talking about. I really recommend that you take that instead. It’s probably a bit grainy in your Juice, and probably better for smoothies, but I haven’t tried that combination yet.
