About
Not only does protein provide us with energy, but it also helps to form our muscles, hair, skin, nails, blood and organs. Consuming protein also helps to keep us satiated, meaning we stay fuller for longer.
Protein is made up of smaller building blocks called amino acids. There are 20 amino acids which help to build components of our body and supply energy. While some of these can be made up by the body, there are 9 amino acids which cannot be synthesised by the body and therefore must be consumed from the diet. Proteins such as pea and hemp protein contain all 9 essential amino acids and are therefore considered complete protein sources.
Together these proteins make up a strong complete amino acid profile and are perfect proteins for those who are vegetarian or vegan. Not only are pea and hemp protein both suitable alternatives to animal proteins such as meat or milk protein, but they are also both free of common allergens, including dairy and soy.
