Vegan Protein Powder

Vegan Protein Powders have come a long way over the past thirty years or so. It used to be the case that any vegetable-based protein pretty much tasted like a combination of shredded cardboard and sand. Fortunately, times have changed—as time does—and with it has come improvements in processing techniques. These days you can enjoy—that's right, enjoy—a vegan protein, which comes in a range of flavours, from smooth Coconut Milk to Salted Caramel to White Chocolate Raspberry. Sounds a lot better than a sand-shake, right? Tastes better too.

The quality of vegan protein powders has improved as well. Plain pea protein now comes with a protein percentage of up to ninety, and contains all of the essential amino acids in appreciable quantities—in a good ratio—to support the body’s various metabolic needs and building roles. Vegan protein powders also contain many non-essential amino acids, like glycine and glutamic acid.

Vegan Protein Powders are formulations that are 100% plant-based for those following an animal and animal-byproduct free diet. The sources of protein used in these powders can be any combination of yellow pea, rice, sacha inchi seed and chia seed, mixed with natural sweeteners and flavours. Simply add to water or your favourite milk alternative, shake or stir and drink. Instant nourishment, and purely from plants! Alternatively, you may like to add a small amount of protein powder to a muffin or cake mix to create high protein foods. The creative possibilities are endless!
