Powerfood Active is a next generation, dairy-free, plant based vegan protein powder supplement loaded with earth grown nutrients designed to optimize an active lifestyle. The decadent chocolate flavor comes from pure cocoa and is enhanced by one of the most sought-after performance foods in the world: maca. Yielding 16 grams of plant protein from organic hemp, organic brown rice, and peas, Powerfood Active contains a balanced amino acid profile and both essential fatty acids (Omega-3 and Omega-6) and Omega-9. Delicately sweetened with stevia and monk fruit, this low glycemic, high fiber blend makes insanely delicious smoothies and more.

Hemp€s protein is highly digestible. A Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry study found that when hemp seeds are hulled prior to removing their oil, the protein absorption rate is comparable to casein (a popular dairy protein supplement). The researchers concluded that the digestibility of hemp protein is equal to or greater than various other grains, nuts, and seeds.

Hemp is a great protein choice for those following a plant-based diet. It€s higher in most amino acids than rice protein and doesn€t contain the trypsin inhibitors that are common in soy protein powders€"compounds that hinder protein digestion in the stomach and small intestine. When combined with small amounts of pea and rice protein, hemp€s amino count can be improved.

This is a vegetarian and vegan-friendly protein powder. For people who don€t want to or can€t take proteins made from dairy (casein and whey are common examples), Powerfood Active is the best vegan protein you€ll find based on its amazing taste and nutrient profile. Use this nutrient-rich formula as part of your daily regimen to maintain optimal performance.
