Protein Powder
Welcome!
You’re here because you’ve received a package to experience doTERRA’s Protein Powder.
First of all, what IS protein powder?
They are powdered forms of protein that come from eggs, milk, or plants like hemp, soy, rice, peas, and a long list of other alternatives.
And depending on the brand, they also contain other ingredients from vitamins & minerals, flavourings, sugar or artificial sweeteners, thickeners, and more.
The amount of protein they contain also can vary. You can stir the powder into a glass of water or use them in smoothies, recipes, or stir them into other foods
This means they can be really helpful to someone who wants to boost the amount of protein they eat but doesn’t want to eat a lot of protein-rich foods. They’re also great if you’re busy and need a quick meal.
They also can be an option for an easy post-workout snack.
Here’s a brief summary of the different types of protein out there:
Milk-based protein powders like whey and casein are the most popular and have been for years. They are the most easily used by your body, which makes them the go-to choice for many people!
But if you are among the many people who have issues digesting dairy, these can upset your system afterward.
There are also egg and meat-based powders on the market that you can investigate but oddly enough, these aren’t always complete proteins.
The same goes for “collagen protein” – it’s not a complete protein but it does have other possible benefits you might want for your skin or your joints and bones, depending on what kind of collagen it is.
That’s it for the animal-based proteins. Now to talk about plant-based sources!
There are more options than ever before, from pea protein to rice and even pumpkin seed.
Here are the basics of some of the top plant choices.
Pea protein is a great source of iron – even better than whey protein.
Hemp protein is easy for your body to digest and use.
And brown rice protein is also a good source of fibre and other micronutrients!
