With all of their many accolades in relation to ethics and accessibility, we were curious to find out more. Read on to find out what this avid gym-buff and dedicated bodybuilder has to say about their all-natural, Organic Vegan Super Protein Powder…
Ingredients:
Organic pea protein powder, Organic pumpkin seed protein powder, Organic rice protein powder, Organic hemp protein powder, Organic chia seed protein powder.
Nutrition:
With its mix of five plant protein isolates there is a whopping 19.7g of protein per 30g serving. 6.3g (healthy) fats and 3.2g of carbohydrates equating to 115 calories per 30g serving. There are also plenty of vitamins and minerals too which aid in digestion and lowering of blood pressure; high in Vitamins E, B1, B2, B3, Folate, Biotin, Potassium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Chromium, Iron, Zinc, Copper, Manganese. It’s also a great source of dietary fibre, Vitamin A, B6, K, Pantothenic Acid, Calcium and Selenium.
Taste:
Organic Super Protein Powder is an unflavoured product, so the great thing is that you can easily add your preferred flavours to the product to have it as a stand-alone protein shake or added to recipes like protein pancakes or omelets. For example, I tried this out as a protein shake partnered up with almond milk, oat milk, cinnamon, banana, raw cacao, nut butters and stevia. Just be aware this is an unflavoured product so you wouldn’t buy it on that basis, but rather for the manifold nutritional advantages it offers
Value:
Indigo Herbs’ mission to provide affordable health supplements clearly rings true. Priced starting at only: £5.99 for 100g, £13 for a 250g, and onwards for larger package sizes. This is by far one of the best value protein supplement products on the market and the fact that it is also 100% vegan, organic, ethically sourced and entirely natural makes it even better value not just for your pocket but for your short and long term health and conscience too!
Summary:
From my perspective, as a dedicated fitness enthusiast, and conscious healthy lifestyle adherent, I can honestly say I’m surprised to have come across such an ‘all-in-one’ single product capable of meeting all my main needs.
With 19.7g of protein per serving, this powder can hold its own in the confusing protein supplement arena, in fact, some of the best performing low carb, whey protein products on the market cannot even claim to contain as much protein per serving and aren’t capable of providing any the additional benefits either. This is because the protein source of this product derives from a combination of five natural plant proteins, meaning that it also provides an awesome method for achieving maximum vitamin and mineral gains, which animal protein product powders generally cannot achieve without supplementary chemical additives.
If you’re looking for a well-rounded vegan protein product that meets not only physical fitness needs, but health and well-being too, Indigo Herbs’ Organic Super Protein Powder certainly ticks all the boxes.
