MD Protein Plant & Sustainable Salmon Creamy Vanilla Flavor
Garden of Life Dr. Formulated
Overview
This product aims to provide a balanced source of protein and fiber with additional functional ingredients such as MCTs and an immune support blend. The protein blend combines plant-based and salmon sources, offering a complete amino acid profile. However, the proprietary blend makes it hard to assess the specific dosage and effectiveness of each protein source. The fiber blend contributes to satiety, while MCTs provide a source of quick energy. The immune support blend is likely underdosed.
