With so many nutritional protein powders on the market how do you know if you are investing in the right brand that is vegan friendly? Well VVTV has put together a round up of some super vegan protein powders and other products to boost your protein intake.

We speak to many vegan sports and fitness experts and many start their day with a protein shake or a protein packed porridge. Try various recipes and different ingredients and see what works for you.

Ground-Based Nutrition

We love this in a smoothie – blended with a banana and dairy free milk.  GBN’s Organic Superfood Protein Powder is the perfect vegan supplement. Composed of only Superfood Proteinthe highest-quality natural whole-food ingredients and notable for its great taste, it contains ingredients such as pea protein, broccoli and kale, plus a proprietary enzyme blend. Unlike many plant protein powders, it also contains healthy fats derived from organic coconut oil powder.

Depending on your choice of flavour, one serving of Superfood Protein contains just 2-3g of net carbs and zero grams of sugar.

This formula by Ground-Based Nutrition is well worth your consideration. A convenient all-in-one nutritional shake, it combines organic multi-source plant proteins, greens, fibre, vitamins, minerals, healthy fats and digestive enzymes. What’s more, the vegan-friendly blend – which is available in several flavours – is completely free from gluten, soy, dairy and whey.

Myvegan

Myvegan’s growing list of totally plant-powered protein & vitamin products have the quality to fully support all training needs whether it’s the first session or all the way to the world-stage.

Myvegan have made it easier than ever to reach your daily protein goals with a huge range of vegan protein shakes, bars and snacks. So whether you’re powered entirely by plants or adapting a more flexitarian approach to dieting whilst reducing your environmental impact, it’s easier than ever to smash your fitness and wellbeing goals.

The Good Guru

We like The Good Guru as they have some different flavours – we love their coconut protein powder.

Suitable for vegans and even those who are non-vegan will find this an excellent choice due to its complete amino acid profile. Our wholesome pea protein is by far one of the best sources of vegan protein to boot.

We use non-GMO ingredients, and handpick only the finest from around the world.

Strawberry powder has super benefits when it comes to your health and exercise regime and here’s why. It is a fantastic source of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants all of which promote muscle growth. It has a strong presence of Vitamin C which helps protect cells from free radicals. Those that lift heavy or participate in endurance sport will be pleased to know that Strawberries are rich in vitamin K, a lesser well known of the vitamins but one essential for supporting bone health and reducing the long-term risk of fractures.

The insoluble fibre in our strawberry powder will help you feel fuller for longer and prevent the need to reach for the biscuit barrel!

Myvegan

Another delicious protein booster from Myvegan – low in carbs and tastes delicious.

These mouth-watering Peanut Butter Cups make the perfect snack to satisfy those sweet cravings. Each cup has a soft peanut centre which is coated in rich, dark chocolate outer shell.

Myvegan Peanut Butter Cups are made using quality, natural ingredients including cocoa butter and pea protein isolate for a boost of plant-based protein – great for supporting an active lifestyle or if you want to increase your daily protein intake. They are also completely free from any dairy, palm oil, or preservatives.

Yaoh

We have been fans of Yaoh’s hemp seeds for years. Perfect in your smoothie, in dairy free yogurt and mixed in with a salad.

Yaoh’s organic dehulled hemp seeds – hemp seeds with the shell taken off – consist of a full amino acid spectrum, which gives rise to a complete range of vegetable protein, whilst retaining the trace mineral content too. They are ideal for sprinkling on pasta, salads, rice dishes tec, or for putting in smoothies or on desserts, or just for nibbling on their own.

100% vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, nut-free and soya-free.

Rich in Essential Fatty Acids Omega 3 and Omega 6.

There are so many ways to enjoy protein packed foods when being vegan. Tofu, tempeh, soya beans, lentils are all firm favs too.

Purition

Purition release new Beetroot and Beetroot and Chocolate Smoothies – as well as Chai Latte flavours!

We have enjoyed them all – blended with extra berries and dairy free milks.

The first in a line of savoury flavours, the new Beetroot and Beetroot and Chocolate Smoothies harness the great taste and excellent nutritional value of beetroot.

Just add milk to enjoy as a warming bowl of porridge, or top with berries for an Instagram-worthy smoothie bowl! 

Renowned for its antioxidant properties, beetroot provides a natural source of vitamins and minerals, including folate, iron, and potassium. 

Like others in the Purition range, both the Beetroot and the Beetroot & Chocolate flavour contain no artificial ingredients; only all-natural wholefoods like ground seeds and nuts, low sugar fruit and vegetables.
