Super Vegan Protein

Pea protein is especially suitable for muscle growth as it contains a high BCAA content. BCAA are three branched-chain amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine, which our body does not produce and that we can only acquire through food or supplementation. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25628520

Lucuma is a super-fruit with a unique vanilla flavor. It is a source of iron and zinc, with low fat content, being an energizer. Thanks to the slowly burning carbohydrates that are part of its composition, lucuma provides lasting energy.

Cocoa is especially rich in minerals such as magnesium, potassium, iron and copper (a mineral that helps protect cells against undesirable oxidation) and contains polyphenols (compounds that act as antioxidants in the organism) – especially able to reduce inflammation, reduce blood pressure and regulate the lipid metabolism. They are all mechanisms that correlate the consumption of cocoa (and many other plants rich in polyphenols) with lower risk of cardiovascular disease.

This is a plant protein powder with a complete amino acid profile which, unlike other protein isolates, maintains an extremely dense nutritional content: it is rich in magnesium, phosphorus and potassium and is also an excellent source of omega-3. Hemp protein 60% (60g protein/100g) has a particularly high protein content and a milder taste than conventional hemp protein, making it the best choice to incorporate into this formula.

Pumpkin Seed Protein is a new item in the Super Vegan Protein formulations. Naturally derived from pumpkin seeds – one of the foods with the highest protein content and which has an extremely rich mineral profile, especially owing to its magnesium, iron and zinc content – this protein powder brings together the nutritional benefits of all these substances, providing 60% protein content.

Digezyme® makes the protein digestive process easier and more comfortable. This complete multi-enzyme (comprising five digestive enzymes, of vegetable origin) improves metabolic health, especially intestinal health, and helps reduce muscle soreness and weakness after doing eccentric physical exercise.

The inclusion of this dried fruit powder increases the potassium content of the mixes (which helps, in particular, to maintain normal blood pressure) and avoids the need to add coconut sugar or other sweeteners.

Freeze-Dried Coffee Arabica, together with cocoa powder, enables Super Vegan Protein to evoke a flavour resembling Mocha Latte. The inclusion of Coffee Arabica (and consequent presence of caffeine) in this mixture makes it versatile to use. Its benefits can be used in a shake after a workout, or before, increasing energy levels, stimulating the metabolism and improving physical performance (1). (1) Effects of caffeine ingestion on exercise testing: a meta-analysis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15657469/ Coffee consumption and health: umbrella review of meta-analyses of multiple health outcomeshttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5696634/  Possible Health Effects of Caffeinated Coffee Consumption on Alzheimer’s Disease and Cardiovascular Disease https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3834513/ 

Ceylon Cinnamon brings out the flavour of the cocoa, contributing with all of its functional properties, mainly derived from the potent antioxidants it contains (anti-inflammation action).

Acerola is a fruit with antioxidant properties, recognised for its high quantity of vitamin C. It is especially effective for sports nutrition. Acerola contains high potassium content, contributing to the normal muscle functioning and high vitamin C content, boosting the immune system during and after physical exercise.
