Propel has launched Propel Clear Protein, a ready-to-mix powder offering protein, fiber and hydration in one serving. The brand, now in its 12th consecutive year of growth, developed the product with registered dietitians—including with GLP-1 users in mind.

The new powder is available now via Walmart, Amazon, Gatorade.com, and TikTok Shop.

Multifunctional formula for active wellness

Propel Clear Protein was developed to address what the brand calls a clear consumer need for beverages that support active wellness without compromising taste or convenience. The clear protein category is experiencing significant growth as health-conscious consumers seek refreshing alternatives to traditional, heavier protein drinks.

Damian Browne, SVP of research and development for U.S. beverages at PepsiCo, said the product is a breakthrough for those with unique nutritional needs.

“Our priority was solving a real human need through a science-backed, multifunctional product,” Browne said. “What we’ve created with Propel Clear Protein is a real breakthrough for consumers, who can now get their protein, fiber and hydration in one great-tasting beverage, without the heaviness of a traditional protein shake.”

Fiber, protein and hydration

Each Propel Clear Protein packet contains:

  • Twenty grams of whey protein to help maintain muscle mass.
  • Three grams of fiber to support digestive health (noting that only 5 percent of Americans meet daily fiber recommendations).
  • Electrolytes to help maintain hydration, as 150 million Americans report feeling the impact of dehydration weekly.

The powder contains zero sugar, 90 calories, and no artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, or added colors. It comes in three flavors: Peach Ginger, Apple Pear, and Watermelon. To prepare, customers mix one packet with 12 to 14 ounces of water and shake until fully dissolved.

Expanding a functional portfolio

Propel Clear Protein is the latest addition to the brand’s science-backed functional hydration portfolio, which includes:

  • Propel Fitness Water – with Gatorade Electrolytes, zero sugar and vitamins.
  • Propel Energy Boost – formulated with caffeine and Gatorlyte Electrolytes.
  • Propel Immune Support – with vitamin C, zinc and Gatorade Electrolytes.

All are available in ready-to-drink and powder formats.
