Analysis

The 20 g plant-protein serving supports general protein intake while keeping fat and carbohydrate modest. Its vegan format is useful for people avoiding dairy, eggs, and other animal-derived protein sources.

Pea and rice are referenced in the related analysis, but their proportions and amino-acid profile are not supplied. Without that detail, protein balance and the practical quality of the blend cannot be fully compared with more transparent formulas.

Sodium is relatively low and potassium adds a modest contribution, though neither source form is identified. The formula remains a general protein powder and does not contain a targeted heart-support active.

Who is it for
  • Vegans seeking a protein powder
  • Adults avoiding dairy and egg
  • People wanting a moderate-calorie chocolate shake
Best for
  • Plant-based post-workout protein
  • Adding protein to smoothies
  • Dairy-free daily nutrition

Pros

  • Provides 20 g of plant protein
  • Contains no cholesterol
  • Low in total fat
  • Sodium remains relatively low

Cons

  • Plant-source proportions are not disclosed
  • Amino-acid profile is unavailable
  • Full flavoring and sweetener system is missing
  • Potassium contribution is modest

Nutrient quality

81 Highest impact

The plant protein may offer a useful amino acid mix, but its specific plant sources are not supplied. The protein amount is meaningful, while potassium and sodium are modest.

Ingredient transparency

76 High impact

Macronutrient and mineral amounts are clearly stated. Generic plant protein naming and unnamed mineral forms limit quality assessment.

Customer satisfaction

66 High impact

The aggregate rating is positive and the available feedback volume provides useful context. No specific review comments are supplied to assess recurring benefits, taste issues, or complaints.

Value for money

66 High impact

A useful vegan protein amount offers fair value, though source details are incomplete. No token performance additions clutter the active profile.

Report overview
Sodium · 140 mg OverallScore57
D Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityC- Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyB+ Value

The sodium amount is too low for substantial sweat replacement. Potassium broadens coverage, but its form and the sodium source are not disclosed. Plant protein adds broader value, while carbohydrate and a midrange serving cost make it inefficient for hydration alone.

Potassium · 176 mg OverallScore39
F Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityC Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value
A moderate potassium amount adds some mineral value alongside the plant protein. The chemical form is not identified, so its absorption and buffering properties remain uncertain. The cost is relatively high for the amount of potassium delivered.
