Vegan Protein High Protein Formula Vanilla Bean Flavor, 1 kg

Vegetarian diets have become more popular, as they are associated with many health benefits because of their low-fat content and high content of fibre, vitamins, and phytonutrients. However, vegans and vegetarians must ensure their protein intake provides the complete spectrum of essential amino acids by combining plant proteins from legumes, grains, and seeds. This is especially important for pregnant women, infants, growing children, athletes, and the elderly.

Natural Factors Vegan Protein is a blend of 100% naturally sourced plant proteins derived from non-GMO yellow pea, organic-sprouted brown rice, and organic hemp and chia seeds. It contains all the essential amino acids, including high concentrations of the three important branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine. In addition, it contains bromelain as a source of digestive enzymes. Vegan Protein delivers 22 g of protein per serving, is naturally sweetened, and contains no additives or added gluten.
