Protein is essential for the human body as it serves as the building blocks for numerous vital processes and structures within the body. This includes muscle growth and repair, enzyme and hormone production, immune function, and structural support.

Protein powders are a convenient way to increase your protein intake and meet your daily protein needs. Protein powders are especially beneficial for people who have busy schedules and struggle to consume enough protein through food.

Protein powders can be used to quickly boost the protein content of foods such as Greek yoghurt, porridge oats and cream of rice. By mixing in a 30g scoop, you can easily add upwards of 20g of protein.

Sufficient protein intake is crucial for overall health, performance, and recovery. The recommended daily protein intake varies by age, gender, activity levels and your goals but generally ranges from 0.8g to 2.2g per kg of body weight.

There are various types of protein powders, each providing unique sources, nutritional’s and benefits.
