Hey guys! Today I thought I would do something a little different and review a protein powder that I recently tried. I absolutely hate trying new protein powders, because unless you get a sample, you have to buy a huge quantity and spend loads of money and yeah yeah yeah….basically I can’t commit to that shit. So I thought this review may help any other indecisive people out there!
I discovered this amazing brand on Instagram, who very kindly offered to send me a free sample of their protein powder to try. I did ask to try a product from their vegan range, but unfortunately they had run out. Instead they sent me one of their most popular flavors – Acai Berry, Blueberry and Camu Camu Whey.
MACROS…
- With almost 21g protein per 25g serving, the blend is extremely high protein.
- Aside from protein, the blend is very low in most things, including calories, carbohydrates and fat.
GOOD BITS…
- This product is made from NOTHING artificial.. which is super rare for a supplement.
- Instead of being made from whey liquid (the by-product in the cheese making process), the protein is produced directly from skimmed milk.
- I haven’t actually been consuming milk at all recently, but the company assured me that the milk they use comes from grass-fed cows who roam outside pretty much all the time.
- Most other proteins undergo heat treatment to remove bacteria from the whey liquid, however this also destroys the vital amino acids. This protein goes through a cold process instead which does not destroy the amino acids.
- Aside from providing a source of protein, the superfoods in the blend have their own health benefits including protecting your heart, lowering cholesterol and aiding weight loss.
BAD BITS…
- The only thing which may let the product down is the lack of flavour, which was of course to be expected in a product with no artificial colors or flavorings.
- This didn’t bother me too much as I mainly added it to pancakes or smoothies, but if you wanted to drink it on it’s own with water I can’t imagine it would taste of much.
If you fancied giving the blend a try check out thier IG page or message info@pureblendco.com
