You can also add the powders to pancakes, smoothies, oatmeal, protein bars or anything else you can care to think of. They all come in smooth chocolate, creamy vanilla, and summer strawberry flavour - which one is your favourite?
The Strong Protein
We’re starting out strong with The Strong Protein. Looking for the best protein powder for muscle growth? This one's for you.
Some people might start consuming protein powder thinking that it will automatically give you muscles. This isn’t true - but The Strong Protein will put you much, much further along the right path to making those gains that you’re dreaming off.
This protein powder is best for you if strength is your main goal. It will help you to get stronger, faster, and was created to enable you to push yourself harder and faster and reduce inflammation quickly, so you can spend as much time in the gym as you want without worrying about being sore. And of course, the ingredients are targeted towards increasing muscle growth as fast as possible in a safe way.
Each serving, which is up to four scoops or 40g, contains 34g grams of protein. Other active, research-backed ingredients are casein, which is a form of protein which the body digests more slowly, which encourages the body to increase muscle output over time, and creatine monohydrate, a substance which can improve strength and help muscles to recover faster during exercise.
Other ingredients include Montmorency cherries, a type of fruit with a high level of anthocyanins, which have powerful anti-inflammatory properties to reduce the damage you can cause your muscles by exercising intensely. Plus there’s bilberries, which improve cardiovascular health, and magnesium, which h balance electrolytes and your metabolism.
The Lean Protein
If you’re worried that exercising a lot and drinking protein shakes will make you bulky, but you don’t want to stop doing these things because they make you feel strong and healthy, The Lean Protein is the one for you. It’s also perfect if your end goal is losing some weight or keeping yourself at a goal weight.
It’s packed full of ingredients to assist with fat loss in a healthy way and reduce food cravings as well as to support muscle repair and growth. The Lean Protein is a great choice to support you in this.
As well as the stellar 29g of protein it provides, is blend contains inulin, a prebiotic fibre to encourage the growth of good gut bacteria, Acetyl L-Carnitine, which helps the body to use fat as an effective energy source, pomegranates, due to their high punicalagin and ellagic acid levels, which help to encourage the growth of positive kinds of gut bacteria linked to lower levels of body fat, yerba mate, which have been shown to potentially delay intestinal absorption of dietary fat, and bilberries, for their antioxidant and anti-ageing properties.
The Health Protein
Vegans, this one’s for you. But not solely - The Health Protein is for anyone looking to support their immune system, boost their levels of health and wellbeing, and support muscle growth. Looking to glow up? This is the protein to choose.
Made from pea and brown rice protein, this blend closely mimics a non-plant based protein thanks to the wide range of amino acids peas and rice contain. With 31g of protein per serving, you’re getting all the support your bones, muscles, hair and skin needs.
We also packed it full of glutamine, an amino acid that fuels the immune system and thus supports strength and recovery, bilberries, for glucose control and inflammation reduction, camu camu, a fruit high in antioxidants and vitamin C and acai berries, which promote brain health and have anti-ageing benefits.
Our favourite ingredients in The Health Protein are the medicinal mushrooms we packed in there. Shiitake, maitake, reishi and cordyceps have powerful antioxidant, antiviral and antibacterial effects, and stimulate the immune system for the better.
