Protein is an essential macronutrient that is vital when it comes to cellular health, as well as the repair and growth of lean muscle tissue within the body. The main sources of protein we tend to find, come from either meat, fish, seafood, or dairy produce, which can be tricky if you’re a vegetarian, and even more difficult if you happen to follow a vegan way of living. However, there are other natural sources of protein, many of which are plant, seed, and nut based that are actually vegan friendly. These natural vegan friendly sources of protein have been developed into vegan protein supplements, providing vegans with a safe, efficient, and simple way of buying vegan protein and increasing their protein intake on a daily basis. Vegan protein combines hemp protein, brown rice protein, and pea protein together to create a quality, premium vegan friendly protein supplement, offering well over 20 grams of protein per serving, as well as numerous amino acids as well.
The benefits of vegan protein include the following:
As mentioned, protein is essential for the growth and repair of muscle tissue within the human body. When we exercise for example, our muscles are actually broken down and destroyed. It is when we rest that we build muscle, providing the body has access to the right nutrients (protein and its amino acids) to begin rebuilding and repairing the muscle tissues and fibres, rebuilding them even bigger and stronger than previously. Vegan protein gives vegans the opportunity to increase their protein intake, without breaking their vegan lifestyle.
Another benefit of vegan protein is that it is thermogenic. This means that once ingested, the body has to work harder to break it down and metabolize it. To compensate, the body burns more calories to provide more energy, thus boosting the metabolism. Not only that, but as well as boosting the metabolism, as it promotes lean muscle mass, even further calories are burnt off because lean muscle tissue requires more energy to maintain itself than body fat.
Another benefit of vegan protein is the fact that it promotes general health and well-being within the body. Protein isn’t just essential for muscle growth and repair, it is also vital for cellular growth and repair, as well as cellular health in general. Without protein, our cells suffer, and if our cells suffer, our health suffers.
There are a number of different types of vegan protein powder, just as there are different forms of regular protein powder. Here’s a look at the different ones:
This protein powder is derived from brown rice and is ideal because it is considered extremely hypoallergenic. There is no gluten, no dairy, no soy, no egg etc, which many people are allergic to. This makes it great for people who suffer with food allergies. Brown rice protein is a great source of protein, so naturally it promotes muscle growth and fat loss, but it has also been found to help regulate blood sugar levels.
Derived from split peas, pea protein is a great source of Arginine, which is an amino acid required for protein synthesis and muscle growth. When we exercise, become ill, or stressed, natural Arginine levels drop, which is why pea protein is so beneficial. It too is great for people suffering with food allergies.
Hemp protein comes from hemp seeds and is great because it is a high fiber protein that is considered of great quality. It has a high rate of digestibility and boasts an extremely impressive amino acid content profile. The fiber helps aid in digestion and digestive health, and studies have also revealed that hemp protein can help combat fatigue as well.
Overall, all of the above have their own unique benefits, tastes, textures, and roles within the human body. They can be consumed individually, or there are blends combining all three.
Order Vegan protein shakes and combine with water, or with vegan-friendly milk alternatives such as soy milk perhaps. It is recommended that they be consumed at least twice a day, with 1 serving recommended with water, immediately following a workout.
Though the supplements are extremely safe, coming from natural ingredients, you must still use as instructed and not consume too much. Potential side effects of overconsumption can include kidney and liver damage. Always use as instructed and never exceed the recommended daily dosage.
