Protein Super Blend

Yes! Children can safely consume Protein Super Blend. Mix Protein Super Blend into a smoothie, drink of your choice or on its own for a tasty snack for your child. For children 1-5 years be sure to use only 1/3 of a serve (10g) and for children 6-12 years half the adult serve (15g), or as otherwise specified by a health professional.

Protein Super Blend contains an array of carefully selected vitamins and minerals that we feel will benefit your overall health the best. We have placed a specific focus on the common nutritional gaps found in New Zealand women, hence why we have provided 100% of the RDI for iron and iodine in Protein Super Blend, as well as included other key nutrients such as zinc and folate at over 70% of the RDI.

Protein Super Blend is a great way to get in your daily requirements, however some may require extra support in specific areas, such as those trying to get pregnant or those with severe deficiencies. We recommend checking in with your healthcare professional regarding which route is best for you before replacing any current supplementation.

We always recommend getting your nutrition from food in the first instance, dietary supplements should only ever be supplementary to and not a replacement for a balanced and varied whole food diet. However on the rare occasion you simply don’t have time to stop to eat a complete meal, some people will by adding a source of healthy fat and complex carbohydrate.

Protein Super Blend is packed full of nutrients that are great for many areas in the body, including our skin! The New Zealand organic red blend contains a mixture of anthocyanin-rich beetroot powder, blackcurrant powder and broccoli sprout powder. Anthocyanins are plant pigment compounds that act as antioxidants. In particular, blackcurrant anthocyanins have been shown to help promote levels of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid in our skin, giving it a hydrated and youthful glow.

Additional skin supporting nutrients found in Protein Super Blend includes vitamin C and Vitamin E, which help defend free radicals to maintain a glowing complexion. Zinc is also a great mineral for skin health, researched to help improve acne as well as rosacea and psoriasis. On the topic of beauty, Protein Super Blend also contains biotin, which is a great nutrient for helping to strengthen hair and nails.

Consider taking Protein Super Blend with your Super Beauty and Marine Collagen Beauty Powder or Marine Collagen Beauty Capsules for that extra glow and boost in skin nutrients.

Yes! Protein Super Blend is a great start to covering your nutritional bases, as it is rich in plant-derived amino acids, vitamins and minerals, making it the perfect complement to all other Two Islands products.

Take Protein Super Blend with our Pea Protein Powder for an additional protein and energy boost. Consider starting your day with Protein Super Blend, then having Pea Protein after a workout or for a midday top up to support lean muscle maintenance, growth and repair.

Taken in addition to Move Me, Protein Super Blend can supply additional antioxidant action as well as protein for muscle and joint health. The antioxidants and plant pigments from New Zealand organic greens and reds in Protein Super Blend are skin-supporting nutrients, which work well alongside our Marine Collagen Beauty Powder as well as Super Beauty.

Pairing Happy Gut with Protein Super Blend can help ensure a healthy intestinal lining to allow for improved nutrient absorption. Happy Gut can also help restore a healthy balance of good gut bacteria for those prone to constipation after iron supplementation. Protein Super Blend also contains New Zealand prebiotic apple fibre to further support digestive health and comfort alongside Happy Gut.

Protein Super Blend is also a great option for busy breastfeeding mothers and can be taken alongside Milk Maker to support a healthy and nutrient-rich milk supply.

Yes! Both pea protein and hemp protein contain all essential amino acids (the amino acids that your body cannot synthesise), to supply your body with the necessary building blocks. Because amino acids are not stored in the body, it is important to get a daily supply. The combination of pea and hemp protein provides a complete protein profile for everyday energy, repair and maintenance.

No. Although Protein Super Blend and Happy Gut do share one ingredient, prebiotic New Zealand Apple Fibre, they are two very distinct products. While they both support digestion with this prebiotic fibre, Happy Gut also helps repair and support gut lining integrity with high strength glutamine, as well as helps calm irritation and coats mucous membranes with soothing herbs including slippery elm, marshmallow and chamomile.

Happy Gut provides comprehensive gut support that repairs, nourishes and soothes, supports digestive comfort, reduces bloating and promotes the growth and activity of good gut bacteria.

We recommend one 30g serve daily or as professionally advised. Blend two heaped tablespoons (30g) into 350ml or more of water, milk or your favourite smoothie once daily to support your daily nutrition needs. The amount and type of liquid you add will affect sweetness and thickness, so experiment and see what works best for you. Best served cold or with ice. Have on its own between meals or after exercise.

What flavour is Protein Super Blend and what does it taste like? With no added flavouring, the natural flavours of the organic reds, wholefood sourced vitamins and fruit-derived natural sweetener perfectly balance the earthy flavours of the organic greens and plant-based proteins providing a pleasant, subtle taste with no overwhelming bitterness. Easy to take with water or added to your favourite smoothie for a nutrition boost.

Protein Super Blend is a unique product that combines plant protein with nutrient-rich plant superfoods to supply a source of natural vitamins and minerals. It is designed to meet the daily nutrition needs of women, containing 100% of the Recommended Dietary Intake of iron and iodine for women in New Zealand. These are two key minerals that women in New Zealand commonly under consume. Packed with 20g of protein per serve, it provides energy and satiety, alongside nutrients including zinc and folate to support women in their day to day. Protein Super Blend is also a great source of nutrients and protein for men who want to meet their daily requirements as well.

For tired and busy mums such as those who are breastfeeding, Protein Super Blend can be a quick fix to help you and your baby get your protein and nutrient needs. Paired with Two Islands Milk Maker, it can ensure a healthy milk supply packed full of nutrients.

Protein Super Blend can also be a tasty snack for children, giving them the energy, protein and nutrients needed for growth and development. Children 1-5 years may take approximately 1/3 serving (10g) and children 6-12 years half the adult serve (15g), or as otherwise prescribed by a healthcare professional.

Iron supplements use synthetic forms of iron in higher doses which can case constipation because the absorption of iron is weak. Iron that is not absorbed by the body remains in the gut to feed bad pathogenic bacteria, which causes constipation. Constipation is therefore a sign of predominant bad bacteria in the colon.

Two Islands Protein Super Blend uses naturally derived iron from curry leaf and combines vitamin C to boost absorption. This should hopefully prevent constipation, however if you usually experience constipation from iron supplements or just in general, consider taking Two Islands Happy Gut to support regular bowel motions, promote a healthy balance of gut bacteria and digestive comfort.

Protein Super Blend is designed to help support your daily nutrition needs. Each serving is loaded with nutrients from superfoods, as well as greens and reds to replenish everyday energy and vitality. Protein Super Blend supports the nervous and digestive systems, as well as balanced cognitive function, mood and stress support.

With a wide supply of amino acids, vitamins and minerals, it supports growth and repair to keep up with your body’s regular cell turnover. It also provides antioxidants which are great for not only liver support and immune health, but also for glowing skin. Ultimately designed to support everyday health and wellness.

Two Islands Protein Super Blend contains a unique, vegan-friendly vitamin D3 with an enhanced bioavailability when compared to vitamin D2. This vegan, vitamin D3 is sourced from non-GMO algae and has undergone testing to show it is chemically identical to vitamin D3 derived from animal products.

Vitamin D3 is a more bioavailable form of vitamin D and traditionally derived from animal sources (lanolin), which makes it an unsuitable option for people who avoid animal products. While vitamin D2 is vegan-friendly, it is a less active form and has been proven to be less bioavailable. This plant-derived vitamin D3 allows vegans and vegetarians and others who avoid certain animal products to enjoy Protein Super Blend, and benefit from its high bioavailability.

Both our Pea Protein Powders and Protein Super Blend offer a high dose of plant-based protein per serve. Our Pea Protein Powders are a blend of 4 ingredients or less providing between 18.8 and 19.7g protein per serve. They come in a range of 3 great tasting flavours and simply provide supplementary protein only to your diet.

Protein Super Blend is a comprehensive daily nutrition formula boasting a wide range of plant-based essential vitamins, minerals, protein and fibre. Think of it as your supercharged protein shake meets multivitamin. It combines both pea and organic hemp protein providing 20g of protein per serve, along with antioxidant-rich organic greens and reds, essential wholefood sourced vitamins and minerals, and prebiotic apple fibre. Protein Super Blend provides comprehensive daily nutrition to support energy, stress, mood, immunity, digestion, lean muscle and skin health.

With pea protein and hemp protein both containing all 9 essential amino acids, they can be considered complete protein sources on their own. However, by combining the two, we can achieve a more nutrient dense and well-rounded source of protein. For instance, pea protein is relatively higher in lysine, an amino acid which helps to support nutrient absorption and the immune system, and is an amino acid that hemp protein is lower in. Hemp protein however is higher in methionine, which is necessary for liver health and cell function, while pea protein is lower in this.

Pea protein is effective at satisfying hunger, and can be considered a more comprehensive protein source, with more amino acids per 100g compared to hemp protein. It is a greater source of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) (such as valine, leucine and isoleucine), which are known for their effectiveness in stimulating muscle growth and repair.

Pea protein may contain more amino acids per 100g, however hemp protein is a good source of fibre and contains a wider nutrient content. Each serving of hemp protein includes heart-healthy fats such as omega-3 fatty acids, as well as nutrients including iron, calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, vitamin B1, vitamin B2 and vitamin E.

Together, these proteins complement each other to give a comprehensive supply of amino acids for satiety and muscle building, as well as fibre and nutrients.
