On Power Plant Protein- Limited Edition

PranaOn Power Plant Protein in Acai Berry is one of two limited edition flavours the Australian vegan sports nutrition brand released in a 440g pouch, the other being Choc Cherry Coconut. The base is the same Power Plant formula the brand builds its range on: a blend of three plant proteins, golden pea, rice and Australian grown faba bean, with coconut medium chain triglycerides, added branched chain amino acids, a five enzyme digestive blend and Lactospore probiotic. What makes this one the Acai Berry is the acai powder and a vegetable powder used for colour, with the berry character coming through the natural flavour. The pouch holds 440g, which is ten 44g serves. It suits people who want their protein from plants, whether they train a few times a week or most days.
