Peas are well-known for being a rich, low fat source of highly bio-available protein. Pea protein is a natural vegetable-source protein, which also offers an excellent nutritional and amino acid profile:

Amino Acid Profile

Pea protein is rich in:

‘branched chain amino acids’ (leucine, isoleucine and valine)
lysine (an essential amino acid)
glutamine (involved in protein synthesis)
and is richer in arginine (involved in immune system function and weight control) than any other commercially available protein.

Nutritional Profile

Peas are also rich in:

vitamins: including vitamin A, riboflavin, niacin, folate, thiamin, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, vitamin B6, vitamin C and vitamin K
minerals: including calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium, phosphorus, copper and manganese
and other nutrients: including both soluble and insoluble dietary fibre, lutein (a nonprovitamin A carotenoid), phyto-nutrients / phytosterols (especially ß-sitosterol) and antioxidants.
By contrast, peas are low in fat, calories, sodium and contain no cholesterol.

Easy to digest – no bloating!

Pea protein is a relatively new form of protein supplement, valued for its high digestibility (90-95%), low potential for allergic responses and reasonable price. It is particularly popular because it has a sweet taste and a texture which mixes well in liquid solutions.

It is also useful for mixing into soups and stews. Alternatively, it can be blended with liquids of your choice, as well as fruit (like banana) to make a healthy smoothie.

Ideal for:

slimmers and people with food cravings (as provides slow release energy and promotes increased satiety through the combination of protein and dietary fibre content)
anyone recovering from illness
people with low appetites
those with an active lifestyle, with high energy demands
vegetarians, vegans and anyone looking to boost their protein intake
