A vegan athlete? It's possible!
Would you like to have an athletic body despite a vegan diet? This requires some attention, but it is possible. Many people fear that they cannot do bodybuilding without eating animal foods, as all their hard work would have been in vain. But there are many famous and successful athletes who contradict this view. You can be a vegan and still be muscular, even if you have turned from a staunch carnivore to a herbivore. The key lies in a high-quality protein supplement.
Based on rice and peas
Unlike animal-based varieties, plant-based foods are not complete sources of protein, which means they don't contain all the essential amino acids your body needs. However, by supplementing (a combination of different plant-based protein sources) you can get a protein complex that is complete. In Vegan Protein, we've achieved this by combining two protein sources that complement each other perfectly - rice protein, which is low in lysine but high in sulphur-containing amino acids (such as cysteine and methionine), and pea protein, which is low in sulphur-containing amino acids but high in lysine. Further extras have been added to this excellent base.
+ 3 types of superfood
- Quinoa flour → This popular ingredient in health food cuisine was the mother of all grains for the ancient Incas, although it is only a "pseudo-cereal". It has a lower carbohydrate content than normal cereals, but the protein content is higher (16%). It is also an excellent source of minerals as it contains potassium, calcium, magnesium and iron.
- Açaí berry powder → The açaí berry, which is native to the Amazon rainforest, has an excellent ORAC value (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity - the international standard for the absorption capacity of oxygen radicals).
- Goji berry powder → Goji berries (also known as wolfberries) have been used as an aphrodisiac in China for thousands of years. The tangy, bright red fruit, which tastes like a mixture of cherry and blackberry, contains 8 essential amino acids and lots of vitamin C.
