I notice your pea protein is non-GMO, which is great! But why it's not organic as well?It is not organic, but it is a clean, effective and bioavailable source of protein. In product formulation, organic is not always the top priority. In the case of Vegan proteins+, our priority is to provide a unique mix of plant-based protein sources that in combination provide a complete and balanced source of amino acids.
Is this product gluten free?Yes, this product is gluten free!
Is there any cocoa in your chocolate flavoured Vegan protein powder? Or is it natural flavouring?There is cocoa in the natural flavouring of Vegan proteins+ chocolate.
Is it possible to get this product without flavour or stevia?At this time we do not produce an unsweetened & unflavoured version of Vegan proteins+. For those who are looking for an unsweetened & unflavoured plant-based protein, we offer fermented vegan proteins+!
How can this protein be harmful to the liver if it is compromised?This warning is not because of one ingredient, but because of protein itself, and would apply to any protein supplement in Canada. The reason the NHPD requires this caution is because high doses (well beyond the daily dose of proteins+) can cause issues. Excess protein can stress both the liver and kidneys.
On the packaging it states that a physician should be consulted if you want to use VEGAN proteins+ and you are taking birth control pills. Could you please tell me what is in this that may affect birth control pills?This caution is in place from Health Canada and is specific to the ingredient alfalfa. We advise you consult your natural health care practitioner for further direction with this caution.
Can u take this product more than once a day?We can only advise the recommended dose as per Health Canada. Please consult your health care practitioner for further direction.
I am wondering if it is okay to mix the powder with hot water, or will it destroy any of the nutrition?Vegan proteins+ is very stable. You can mix this product with warmer liquids but we do suggest keeping the water under the boiling point.
Your label on Vegan proteins+ shows that for 1 scoop (33.5g) there are 2g of fat. How much of that fat is saturated fat?There is 0.46g (vanilla), 0.84g (chocolate) of saturated fat in each 1 scoop serving of Vegan proteins+. There are small amounts of saturated fat in some of the plant proteins.
How are the protein sources extracted to form the powder? For example do you use methods like, cold-extrusion without solvents, hexane, or radiation?Each plant protein in this product is processed separately and with an appropriate process to the ingredient. The manufacturing process is proprietary, but we can disclose that it does not use solvents, hexanes, irradiation or chemical modification.
The pea, rice alfalfa proteins are isolated using none chemical means through grounding, milling, sieving, hydrating, separating, drying and enzymatic reactions.
I have been reading about anti-nutrients (phytic acid, oxalates, tannins, trypsin inhibitors, enzyme inhibitors, lectins, protease inhibitors, gluten, alpha-amylase inhibitors and alkylresorcinols) that are present in beans, peas, legumes, grains, nuts, and seeds. I would like to know if you take any steps in reducing these anti-nutrients in Vegan proteins+?The pea, rice and alfalfa proteins are isolated using non-chemical means through grounding, milling, sieving, hydrating, separating, drying and enzymatic reactions. Through isolation of the protein component of plant foods there is also a significant reduction in anti-nutrients such as tannins, oxalates, purines and phytates (phytic acid) that otherwise prevent protein utilization (up to 60% of purines are lost during a simple washing process).
Vegan proteins+ is gluten free.
Our unique combination of plant based proteins, including new and innovative potato protein, provides a highly digestible and easy to absorb product.
For those with compromised digestion, we offer fermented vegan proteins+ for even easier absorption of nutrients!
