PureMeal (Dairy-Free) is a
plant-derived protein powder alternative to our popular whey-based PureMeal. It is free of casein, lactose, and gluten and offers the
same comprehensive nutrient blend as the original PureMeal.. When
used with a balanced whole foods diet, PureMeal is designed to help
promote an optimal intake of protein, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins
and minerals needed for overall wellness.
Featuring plant-derived protein Peatein
PureMeal Dairy Free is made with Peatein, a natural pea protein
concentrate offering a high level of functionality and nutritional
benefits. Using a patented protein technology, the production process
does not use any chemicals. The raw materials, North American grown
yellow peas, are not genetically modified (non-GMO).
Peatein has an excellent array of amino acids, including high levels
of BCAAs (branched chain amino acids). While its amino acid profile is
similar to whey protein, it is particularly high in arginine, leucine,
lysine and tyrosine. Peatein is a true vegan protein which has
excellent digestibility (98%) and is hypoallergenic.
As
pea protein has ACE inhibitory activity, it may have a positive effect
on the maintenance of normal blood pressure levels.[1] It
has also been shown, in rat studies, to have a positive impact on
total cholesterol and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) by
stimulating bile acid formation and excretion.[2]
Additional Highlights of PureMeal-DF - NatureFolate
natural vitamin folates that are found in foods such as spinach
and are immediately active and bioavailable to the human body.
- Creatine MagnaPower® for energy reserves stabilized
creatine plays an important role in the maintenance and regeneration of
ATP, and helps to increase muscle mass, strength and endurance.Vegetarians
appear to have lower tissue creatine concentrations, since creatine is
mostly found in animal foods such as herring, pork, beef, salmon
and tuna.
- Contains no sucrose, fructose, or artificial sweeteners, and is naturally sweetened with the health-promoting polyol xylitol and the herb stevia.
