Proteins & Amino Acids

'Where do you get your protein from?', a common question asked of many vegans. Well, the truth is, there are many plant based sources of protein, from nuts, seeds and pulses!

Proteins and the amino acids they contain, including Branch Chain Amino Acids, have been shown to maintain physical performance, energy levels and endurance.

BCAAs (Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine) are metabolised directly into skeletal muscle and have also been shown to improve muscle recovery. These essential amino acids work best when taken throughout the day, or before, during and after exercise. They help build new muscle tissue, protect against muscle breakdown, help maintain blood sugar levels and support toning.

Veganicity Protein Powders contain a vast array of amino acids, and are essential for those trying to add a little more protein to their diet without huge increases in their calorie intake. Especially useful for athletes, weight trainers or those trying to lose a little weight. All our powders are great when added to soups or smoothies, or even try a vegan protein pancake!
