Plantpro – Plant-Based Protein Blend

Wholefood Ingredients

We use 100% real foods as ingredients and they are all listed clearly under the ingredient section. Not alien words or chemical terms, but names of real foods grown in nature, not labs. These foods, worthy to be labelled as wholefoods, are foods close to their natural form, either unprocessed or have been processed as little as possible. 

In other words, 'chufa' refers to the natural liquid extracted from raw, puréed chufa – not diluted nut milks that often rely on added sugar, binders, colourings, or flavourings to imitate the original taste.

Better and Safer Choice Than Other Protein

Nutrient-rich and high-performance formula blend with a perfected amino acid profile for maximum protein utilisation and lean muscle building.

Does not cause acnes, bloating, cramping, constipation, or diarrhoea like whey, dairy, egg, and meat protein does. Does not contribute to Aminoacidemia – a condition which has been linked to diabetes – like whey protein does. Does not contribute to infertility, breast cancer, hypothyroidism, and many other conditions linked with soy protein.

Non-GMO, free of allergens, hormones, extracted or synthetic nutrients, added sugar, colourings, artificial flavourings, fillers, stabilisers, preservatives and other additives.

More Than Just Protein

Our nutritionists always say that our body needs a variety of nutrients to work optimally, as each nutrient has its roles to play, and some are dependent on other nutrients. For that reason, our Plantpro was formulated with a rather interesting wholefood – freeze-dried chufa.

With this special ingredient, you get natural digestive enzymes, healthy fats, dietary fibre, folate and minerals such as iron, potassium, magnesium, and zinc in each serving. These nutrients are essential for body building as they help fuel you longer, aid protein absorption, help maintain healthy bones and teeth, as well as regulate muscle contractions. Did we mention it helps improve the taste and mouthfeel of our protein blend too?

Fun fact: Chufa (also known as tigernut, yellow nutsedge, or earth almond) is actually a tuber, hence safe for people with nut allergy.

Colloid Milling Technology

How does one access the rich minerals trapped inside the tough, jagged skin of chufa? 

Colloid milling technology operates on the rotor-stator principle, grinding materials through a narrow, fine-toothed gap between a rapidly rotating rotor and a stationary stator. The rotor and stator's teeth pierce through the hard chufa shell, crushing its flesh and releasing the nutrients within, transforming it into a rich, smooth, and fragrant purée. The liquid is then extracted by applying high-pressure compression to the purée, before being freeze-dried into fine powder.

Freeze-Drying Technology

In contrast to cheaper conventional drying methods that rely on heat, vacuum freeze-drying is a long, expensive, and highly sophisticated process. The chufa liquid is first frozen into ice in a blast-freezing chamber at -40°C within three hours, then placed under vacuum where the ice turns directly into vapour.

Such advanced technology ensures the natural taste, colour, fragrance, and nutrients (enzyme, vitamins, and minerals) of the chufa liquid are carefully preserved and sealed within. The same as drinking fresh chufa milk!

19g Protein Per Serving

Protein is the most important nutrient we need. A complete protein is comprised of 20 building blocks called amino acids – 9 of which cannot be produced by our body. These essential amino acids must be obtained through foods, such as chia seeds, spirulina, and – you guessed it – our Plantpro.

Protein is the building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood. Even our hair and nails are mostly made of protein. Without sufficient protein, the body cannot produce essential enzymes, hormones, and other body chemicals.

At 19g of protein per serving, our Plantpro gives you more protein than most plant-based protein blend in the market.

8% DV Iron Per Serving

It is a common misconception that protein alone drives muscle growth. In reality, nutrients like iron, magnesium, and potassium also play vital roles in supporting muscle development and performance.

Iron plays a vital role in producing red blood cells and transporting oxygen from the lungs to every cell in the body – including muscle cells. When iron levels are low, the body may experience weakness, fatigue, shortness of breath, lightheadedness, cold extremities, muscle cramps, or chest pain. In more severe cases, anaemia can impair muscle function, cloud mental clarity, and even lead to heart failure.

Fun fact: Athletes need about 1.5 times more iron than sedentary individuals – to keep up with the higher oxygen demands of their active muscles.
