Complete Vegan Protein Natural Chocolate
GNC Pro Performance
Overview
This Complete Vegan Protein blend provides a good source of protein, carbohydrates and fiber, with a complete array of amino acids from a variety of plant-based sources. It includes clinically researched compounds like betaine. However, many of the benefits also rely on several proprietary blends, potentially limiting its effectiveness due to unknown quantities and ratios of key ingredients.
The Good
Provides a complete vegan protein source with all essential amino acids.
Includes betaine, a proven ingredient for enhancing strength and power.
Offers a blend of plant-based proteins that may be easier to digest for some individuals.
The Bad
Contains a 'Functional Flavor System' and 'Natural Flavor' with unspecified quantities potentially masking the exact amount of beneficial ingredients.
The 'Vegan Amino Acid Matrix' is at 10g, but it's unclear the amounts of each specific amino acid contributing to that 10g, so it might not be optimized for muscle protein synthesis.
Complex blend of vegetable powders such as butternut squash, zucchini, and pumpkin, with no clear indication of individual amounts
Is it for you?
Best For: Vegans, vegetarians, individuals with dairy allergies, athletes, fitness enthusiasts
Skip If: You have specific allergies to plant-based protein sources (e.g., soy, pea, rice)
