Jake compared to Jimmy Joy

Jake-vs-Jimmy-Joy

What is Jake?

Jake is complete food. Complete food provides every nutrient your body needs. In 2015 we introduced our first complete food, the shake. Since then we’ve been working on further development. Ingredients have been replaced and flavours have been improved. The Vitaminbars and later the limited edition shakes were added, and meals have gotten easier. And we keep on creating and testing new products, so you can stay healthy.

All the ingredients in Jake are carefully selected to contribute to the nutritional profile of the meal replacement shakes & the meal replacement bars. That means Jake gets you all of the good, and none of the bad. Jake is lactose-free, animal-free and vegan. The 26 vitamins and minerals are according to the recommendations by the European Food Safety Authority.

What is Jimmy Joy?

Jimmy Joy, like us, is complete food. Founded by Joey van Koningsbruggen in The Netherlands in the year 2014, they started creating complete meals. Now they have three types of products: Shakes, Bars and Drinks. They use a blend of oats, soy, golden flaxseed, sunflower and a mix of vitamins and minerals.
