10 Benefits Relating to Pea Protein Powder

1. Pea Protein Powder Is Rich In Protein
   In fact it is the richest form of plant-based protein with about 25g per scoop, which is equivalent to a high quality whey protein powder

2. Pea Protein Powder Is Hypoallergenic

It is possible over time to develop an intolerance or allergy to egg, whey, soy and casein proteins which can result in unpleasant symptoms like bloating, excessive gas and nausea.

It is not possible to develop such symptoms with our organic pea protein making it the most desirable of the protein options with all the benefits and none of the downsides of other sources of protein.

3. Pea Protein Powder Is Low In Carbohydrates
   
   Our protein powder won’t interfere with a low carb diet because it only has 2g of carbs per scoop, which is considered minimal.

4. Pea Protein Powder Is Gluten free
   
   Our pea protein is totally safe if you are gluten intolerant. It is completely gluten-free and instead full of healthy protein to feed your muscles.

5. Pea Protein Powder Is High in BCAAs
   
   Studies show a diet rich in branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) can help keep your body in a muscle building state throughout the day, decrease belly fat, keep you full longer between meals, energize your workouts and much more. Like whey, pea protein powders are packed with BCAAs.

Each scoop has 5 grams of BCAA’s, which is almost as much as whey at 6 grams. These BCAA’s will help you promote muscle growth in a healthy way and also lose fat. Studies have shown that these BCAA’s allow the body to remain in a muscle-building state all day. They can energize your workouts, help you fell full between meals and help reduce belly fat.

6. Pea Protein Is 100% Vegan
   
   Pea Protein provides a rich source of healthy protein to vegetarians and vegans, who can be inclined to have insufficient protein in their diet. Even for meat eaters, if you are having a break from meat this provides a healthy alternative source of protein.

7. Pea Protein Powder Is Easily Digested
   
   Pea protein and whey protein are both easily digested which benefits you in several ways. You won’t feel bloated after drinking a shake and the amino acids it contains are quick to be absorbed and fulfil their purpose. Soy on the other hand is much more difficult to digest and is not used anything like as efficiently.

8. Pea Protein Powder Mixes Easily In Water
   
   Some protein shakes won’t mix no matter how hard you try. This isn’t the case with our pea protein, it mixes easily in water, juice or in a blender. All it takes is about 12oz of fluid and a few shakes and it is ready to drink.

9. Pea Protein Powder Helps You Stay Full
   
   Studies show that drinking pea protein powder activates the release of hormones in your body that keep you feeling full between meals. This makes it great to drink as a meal replacement or when you are dieting to lose weight.

It is proven that drinking a pea protein shake will help you feel full for longer from the activation of hormone release. It makes it ideal as a meal replacement for those people dieting.

10. Pea Protein Is Lactose Free

Pea protein is entirely lactose free, whereas whey protein powders often contain a little lactose, making it unsuitable for some. The sugar (from lactose) in whey can cause some people to feel bloated.

An Alternative if you have Food Allergies

Some people avoid pasta and baked foods because they are allergic to eggs, milk and soy products, and our Pea Protein may provide an effective solution. The Northern Pulse Growers Association have stated that pea concentrates provide a suitable alternative to eggs when baking a variety of foods like waffles, cakes, biscuits and pasta dishes.

If you are intolerant to dairy, then pea protein is a better alternative to whey protein. It is recognised as a slow-digesting protein and is better at making you feel full for longer than whey protein. This was demonstrated in a study in the Nutrition Journal, where researchers were able to show that those who drank pea protein before eating ate considerably fewer calories than people who drank whey protein prior to eating.
