Macro Mike Plant Protein Key Ingredients
Peanut Protein
Relatively new to the plant-based protein scene is Peanut Protein. Peanuts are classed as a legume botanically and a nut nutritionally which means that they pack way more of a punch in terms of nutrition and protein. Macro Mike use only the highest oleic peanuts to give their protein it’s signature taste, texture and flavour.
Peanut Protein powders are naturally gluten free and is actually the defatted flour that is made from peanuts. The protein itself is highly nutritious with it being a very good source of Niacin and Manganese. Peanut Protein also surpasses other common plant-based protein powders with it also proving to be an excellent source of Phosphorous, Folate, Copper and Magnesium.
The protein in peanuts is plant-based which means that it has additional health benefits such as being high in fibre and unique bio-actives. Peanut Protein is also high in the amino acid arginine which is a precursor to nitric oxide and the compound that causes vasodilation.
Pea Protein
Pea Protein is made by extracting the protein from yellow peas and is very well-known for being a high quality protein. Pea Protein contains all nine essential amino acids and is also particularly high in the branched chain amino acids – Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine, all of which are essential for muscle protein synthesis.
Pea Protein is also naturally rich in iron and is vegan friendly, gluten free, dairy free and low allergen.
Coconut Milk Powder and Coconut Nectar
Coconut Milk Powder is made from dehydrated coconut milk and has a rich and creamy texture with a mild flavour. Coconut Milk Powder is a natural dairy-free alternative to milk. It is also 65% coconut oil so it is rich in medium-chain fatty acids and is also has antimicrobial properties due to the fact that it contains lauric acid.
Macro Mike also use coconut flower nectar in their plant protein. Coconut nectar is the syrup that is derived from the sap of the flowers of the coconut palm. The coconut nectar brings a balance of creaminess and sweetness to the protein and adds to the delicious taste and consistency.
Faba Bean Protein
Another rising star in the world of plant-based proteins is Faba Bean Protein which come from the broad bean. Macro Mike choose to use Australian grown Faba Bean Protein in their Plant Protein to replace their previously used Rice Protein. Faba Bean Protein has a much more subtle flavour and smooth creamy texture.
Faba Beans are naturally high in protein, sitting at around 85% protein and is considered a complete protein as it contains all essential and non-essential amino acids. Nutrition wise, Faba Bean Protein is high in fibre as well as Folate, Manganese, Copper, Phosphorous, Magnesium, Potassium, Thiamine and Zinc.
Faba Bean Protein is also high in iron and antioxidants and low in fats. This protein also helps to support mental and physical health as it is also high in a compound that very easily converts to Dopamine.
