Yellow peas are more commonly known as "split peas" and are used extensively in food preparation such as in soups & purees. Most commercially available protein powders are derived from soy, rice, eggs or dairy, which are often problematic for those with allergic dietary concerns. Prescribed Choice has chosen Pea Protein because it is a plant-based, hypoallergenic protein that yields is a high biological value (65.4%). The BV is an accurate indicator of the biological activity of protein. It measures the actual amount of protein deposited per gram of protein absorbed. High BV proteins are a better choice for increased nitrogen retention, enhanced immunity and IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor) stimulation. They are superior for reducing lean tissue loss from various wasting states than proteins with a low BV score. Through a clever extraction and purification process, our Pea Protein is concentrated from the normal level of 6% in fresh peas to 90% protein content! This unique process produces a protein powder that is highly soluble and easy to digest. Pea Protein is ideal for vegans, offers an excellent nutritional profile, is free of gluten, lactose, cholesterol and other anti-nutritional factors. Supplemental Facts:* Non-GMO * Hypoallergenic * 100% Gluten Free * Perfect for Vegans * 100% Cholesterol Free * 100% Plant-Based Protein * Highly Soluble & Easy to Digest * Source of Beneficial Amino Acids * Environmentally Friendly Source of Protein * Highly Suitable for Sustainable Agriculture

Protein Powders Products

Protein is essential for muscle repair and growth and aids in weight loss. Many different protein powders exist, including casein, soy, and whey protein. Protein shakes and other protein supplementation sources are excellent for supporting serious athletes and teens participating in competitive sports.

People who are out of shape and have just begun to work out may need the additional nutrition and energy boost provided by a good protein supplement. Those who have been working out for a while and wish to increase performance will also find the protein powders helpful. Additionally, people recovering from injury can use the extra protein to promote healing. Protein shakes also benefit people who are switching from an omnivorous to a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle. No matter what your reason, choosing a high-quality protein supplement is a great way to be sure of meeting all of your nutritional needs. Count on Vita Living to provide a wide variety of high-quality protein shakes and protein supplements to suit your needs. 

Healthcare professionals caution that people should not depend solely on protein powder supplements for good nutrition. People of all ages and activity levels must strive to eat a well-balanced, nutritious, natural, whole-food diet rich in high-quality protein sources. While some athletes may need more elaborate and complete protein supplements, a less expensive choice is excellent if you wish to enhance your diet and fitness. 

Whey protein is very popular because it is a milk protein that dissolves easily in water, so people seeking a boost in proteins and amino acids can easily add it to their daily diet. Whey protein is complete and contains a full array of the nine necessary amino acids. It is essential to realize that whey is a dairy product, not a strictly vegan choice. For people who prefer a vegan diet, soy protein is a good option; however, some users say it does not taste as good as whey protein and is more challenging to dissolve in liquid.
