The Perfect Protein Quest
Finding the right protein shake for my daughter has been a wild ride. After trying countless brands that gave her headaches, I finally discovered the culprit: a specific amino acid- Glutamine!
I searched for a brand that was clean and didn’t contain this specific amino acid and tasted good. As well as not having any artificial flavours or sweeteners which can cause gut microbiome issues.
We had a discussion with a lady in the US who is a metabolic practitioner and she advised us to start using ATP Labs for all supplements and protein shakes.
We made the switch and their whey and beef proteins are game-changers. They’re clean, free from the headache-inducing amino acid, and perfect for my daughter’s post-workout recovery.
However, as we have discovered more animal-based companies, LineageProvisions, provide in our opinion the best quality and nutrient-dense protein powder. We use it daily, as a post-workout shake for recovery or even at breakfast, increasing our protein intake for the day.
This contains the highest quality ingredients. Grass-fed beef, organs such as heart, liver, kidney, spleen and pancreas, organic berries, colostrum which is rich in immunoglobulin and helps with your microbiome and workout recovery, coconut water, maple syrup, and sea salt.
Animal-based nutrition has gained significant attention for its nutrient density and health benefits.
This powder is:
- Optimized for Digestion: Unlike whey-based products, this unflavored blend is designed to minimize bloating and support gut health(chocolate is also available). The addition of colostrum further enhances its digestive benefits, promoting a healthy gut lining.
- Nose-to-Tail Nutrition: Each serving delivers over 20 grams of protein, roughly equivalent to 4 ounces of grass-fed beef. This approach ensures a wide range of essential nutrients that are often missing in conventional diets.
- Clean and Transparent Ingredients: Free from fillers, gums, stabilizers, artificial sweeteners, and flavourings, it provides a clean source of nutrition. Rigorous testing ensures it meets high standards, with no detectable levels of over 450 common contaminants.
We have chosen to order this product from America and pay the high shipping fees. However, there is a more readily available protein powder from Equip Food- Prime Protein. This powder does not contain the organs but it is another good alternative available in the Uk.
