Today is a very exciting day! Herbs Online Shop has a new product – Amino Acid Plant Protein Powder!
Our Amino Acid Plant Protein Powder is made with an advanced plant-based blend of Brown Rice, Hemp and Pumpkin Seed Proteins and is designed to provide the body with readily available protein to greatly assist muscle recovery and repair, boost daily protein intake, curb hunger cravings and help stabilise mood by maintaining blood sugar levels throughout the day. Our ingredients are, of course, premium quality and full of essential amino acids such as Calcium and Magnesium. Amino Acids are the ‘building blocks’ of muscle, incorporating a supplement into your diet that contains amino acids will greatly improve your ability to build/tone muscle. Our Amino Acid Protein Powder supports energy production due to the Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) + Calcium and Magnesium and provides 46% of daily protein intake per serve. It is a fantastic source of B12, Iron, Iodine, Zinc and vitamin D3.
Protein powder is a fantastic way to boost your protein intake, one serve of a protein shake can be the difference between snacking on sweets or overeating at your next meal. Being mindful of what you are eating and incorporating a protein shake into your diet can keep you on track with your nutrition goals, and just one serve a day helps you maintain awareness of your food intake and manage sugar cravings – I have been sharing this protein with friends and family and the feedback has been wonderful. Adherence to healthier nutrition plans, saying no to temptation like afternoon donuts or muffins and curbing sugar cravings at night has been just some of the benefits.
I also work with a lot of fitness focused individuals including athletes and have given them this protein to try, and the switch from the protein powders they were using to our Amino Acid Protein Powder has had a huge impact on their gut health and energy levels. Unfortunately a lot of the protein powders on the market at the moment are made with filler ingredients such as corn, which can cause bloating. Our Amino Acid Plant Protein Powder contains certified organic ingredients, certified by ACO and is vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free. This product contains Digestive Enzymes to improve protein and mineral bioavailability and none of the fillers or preservatives often found in other protein powders. It is a wonderful source of minerals including Potassium, Calcium, Iodine, Iron, Magnesium and Zinc and is refined sugar free – sweetened naturally with Monk Fruit.
Speaking of fitness, when it comes to increasing the size of a muscle – hypertrophy – muscle protein synthesis needs to happen, this means the muscle cell needs to get bigger, which happens from resistance training, coupled with adequate protein intake. However, ensuring that you are getting enough protein into your diet can be tricky. I work with a lot of people who are time poor and don’t have the time to cook every day (this is where meal prepping on weekends can be super useful to prevent take-away meals and fastfoods). I also work with people who prefer a vegan diet but struggle with the high fibrous proteins in a vegan diet such as tofu, lentils and beans. This is where our product is perfect. It is suitable for any age and diet.
We are so proud of this product, and it is available in two delicious flavours – vanilla and cocoa!
