Protein Powders
Our protein powders are an easy and convenient source of complete, high-quality protein. There are many reasons why people might want supplemental protein in their diet:
- Young athletes who are still growing. A teenager needs more protein to fuel their workouts as the body is still growing and using more protein in general.
- Starting an exercise program. If working out is new to you and you’re trying to build muscle, you’ll require more protein than you normally would.
- Amping up your workouts. If you normally work out for half an hour a few times a week, but now you’ve decided to increase resistance training or train for a half-marathon, your body will need more protein.
- Recovering from an injury. Injuries cause the body to require more protein to help with the healing process.
- Vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. People who choose to follow a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle eliminate a number of common protein sources from their diet, including meat and sometimes fish, dairy, and eggs as well.
- Weight management. Research shows that increasing protein calories helps to retain muscle mass, supporting weight management programs.

Protein Powders
Soy Protein Powder IP Non-GMO (Item #968)
Genetic engineering (GE), or use of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs), continues to be a controversial issue in the Natural Foods industry. Some of the immediate and specific results of GE when used in agriculture are known, but mostly, the long-term and general effects on ecosystems and human health are not. By providing a Non-GMO Soy Protein Powder, we support the consumer's "right to know" issue regarding GE and GMOs. A Certified Identity Preserved material is closely monitored during each step of the growing, harvesting, production, and transportation process of agricultural crops, such as soybeans, to ensure it is not exposed to DNA modification.
