Lamberts Pea Protein (powder) *360 g

Lamberts® Pea Protein is a highly concentrated protein product derived from yellow peas. Extraction and purification processes raise the protein content from the normal 6% in fresh peas to 80% in this product. This unique process produces proteins that are highly soluble and therefore easy to digest and absorb. We have deliberately chosen peas as a protein source because the amino acid profile is excellent, as it is rich in 'branched-chain amino acids' (leucine, isoleucine and valine) and is richer in arginine than any other commercially available protein.

Pea protein has many uses as it is free from wheat, gluten, dairy, eggs, *soy* and animal products. It is unsweetened and has a mild salty taste, making it useful for mixing into soups and dishes. It can also be mixed with fruit such as a banana to make a fruit smoothie.

It can be used by anyone recovering from illness and/or with low appetite. It can also be used by those on a diet who may wish to increase their protein intake.
