VERDURE VITAMINS new Pea Protein shakes
Protein is essential for normal growth, cell repair, the production of hormones, immune function, muscle growth, not to mention the fact that it used in almost every physiological process. In other words, it is a macronutrient that we cannot live without.
Whether you are placing high demands on your body or simply looking for a protein boost in your diet, protein shakes offer a quick and easy means of topping up on this essential nutrient every day.
In a single, easy-to-make drink you can access concentrated levels of complete, balanced and natural plant protein and can rest assured that it is of a high quality. You do not need to worry about the saturated fat or contaminants often associated with traditional sources of protein, i.e. meat and dairy products. You can even up your intake of protein whilst accessing a broad spectrum of other nutrients often lacking in meat and dairy proteins, such as fibre, vitamins and minerals, thereby supporting your immune system, general health and well-being.
Pea Protein is of high quality, complete, natural and balanced protein in your diet can support a number of health goals, suitable for virtually any lifestyle, including organic, vegetarian, vegan and dairy, wheat and gluten free. Great alternatives to whey protein powders!
High Pea Protein
EACH POT CONTAINS
Peas are also rich in: vitamins (including vitamin A, riboflavin, niacin, folate, thiamin, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, vitamin B6, vitamin C and vitamin K) and minerals
(Including calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium, phosphorus, copper and manganese) and other nutrients, including both soluble and insoluble dietary fibre, lutein (a nonprovitamin A carotenoid), phyto-nutrients / phytosterols (especially ß-sitosterol) and antioxidants. Peas are low in fat, calories, sodium and contain no cholesterol.
Cinnamon: Cinnamon is a good source of vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin K, iron, dietary fibre, calcium, manganese, potassium, Zinc, flavonoids, antioxidants and beneficial oils (such as eugenol). It is very low in saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium.
Cinnamon can also assist with blood sugar level control - it may slow the rate at which the stomach empties after meals, reducing the rise in blood sugar after eating.
Alfalfa: Alfalfa is rich in chlorophyll, vitamins (such as pro-vitamin A (B-carotene) and vitamins B6, C, D, E, K and P) and minerals (such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and zinc). It also contains all 8 essential amino acids, the building blocks of protein, yields 10 times more mineral value than an average grain and contains 8 essential enzymes including:
Alfalfa consists of medicinal “actives”, such as isoflavones, sterols and other plant phytoestrogens that (working together with the plant’s natural fibre) promote healthy cholesterol levels.
Alfalfa also contains derivatives of coumarin, an anti-platelet substance that reduces blood clotting and protects the body against atherosclerosis, which is the fatty plaque build-up along the artery walls.
Acai berries: Acai berries have rapidly grown in popularity over recent years, largely because they have finally been recognised in the Western world as being a “superfruit” because of their high nutrient content. Found only in the Amazon rainforests of Central and South America, these berries contain a wide array of vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids and antioxidants.
Acai berries are beneficial for:
• The immune system: their dark purple pigment contains plant chemicals called anthocyanins (powerful antioxidants that are part of the flavonoid family of molecules and are important for neutralising harmful free radicals)
• supporting the heart: Acai berries are a rich source of protein and dietary fibre, which are believed to have a protective effect on the cardiovascular system
• lowering cholesterol levels: Acai berries are a rich source of Omega 6, Omega 9 fatty acids and phytosterols, which play an important role in lowering the levels of cholesterol in the blood, and have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-mutagenic properties.
Spinach: Spinach is at the top of many superfood lists because it is loaded with iron, calcium, folic acid, Vitamin K, Vitamin C, fibre and carotenoids.
Add its lutein and bioflavanoids and spinach is a nutritional powerhouse! The calcium content in spinach helps to strengthens bones; the A and C vitamins, fibre, folic acid, magnesium and other nutrients help to fight disease and boost the immune system. Folate also lowers the blood levels of homocysteine, a protein that damages arteries and therefore helps protect against heart disease.
Chlorella: Chlorella is a powerful detoxification aid which has been proven to bind with heavy metals and pesticides - such as PCBs - which can accumulate in our bodies. It is also a fibrous material, which means that it supports healthy digestion and overall digestive tract health.
A clean bloodstream, with an abundance of red blood cells to carry oxygen, is essential for strong natural defences. Chlorella's high nutrient content, cleansing action on the bowel and other elimination organs, as well as its protection of the liver, helps to keep the blood free from impurities and our immune Dandelion root: The dandelion has been a staple of the traditional herbal pharmacopoeia for centuries.
In Europe, the dandelion is still respected as the nutritional and medicinal powerhouse that it is. Among other things, dandelion root has been used as a gentle laxative, digestive aid, to treat liver and kidney problems and to relieve inflammation, boils, fever and diarrhoea and to help regulate blood sugar levels. Dandelion root is also known to stimulate the appetite and promote digestion.system strong. Chlorella gets its name from the high amount of chlorophyll that it possesses!
Green tea: Green tea is rich in catechin polyphenols. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), in
particular, is a powerful antioxidant. Some studies have shown green tea polyphenols to have a stronger antioxidant action than Vitamin C and E. Green tea is effective at lowering LDL cholesterol and blood pressure levels and inhibiting the abnormal formation of blood clots. In countries where green tea is regularly consumed, there are significantly lower levels of heart disease. Green tea is also known to be beneficial for weight loss, because the polyphenols induce thermogenesis and stimulate fat oxidation, boosting the metabolic rate without increasing the heart rate.
Spirulina: Spirulina is a highly nutritious blue-green algae. It is used for:
• boosting the immune system
• improving digestion
• reducing fatigue and building endurance
• cleansing and detox purposes
• boosting energy levels
Spirulina is a complete food that supplies an incredibly wide range of nutrients, including protein, vitamins, minerals, Omega 6
fatty acids, chlorophyll and other phytonutrients.
• controlling appetite
• maintaining healthy heart function
• supporting the liver and kidneys
• reducing inflammation
• alleviating allergy symptoms.
Baobab fruit: Known as the "tree of life", the fruit of the baobab tree is being billed as the king of the superfruits. It has 3 times as much vitamin C as an orange, 50% more calcium than spinach and milk and is a plentiful source of antioxidants. Soluble fibre in the fruit pulp has prebiotic qualities and stimulates good bacteria in the gut. It is also high in potassium (important for brain, nerve and muscle function), as well as phosphorus, which supports healthy bones.
There are multiple uses for this nutritious vegan protein shake, some of which are listed below.
Meal: Simply use as a nutritious, light and easily digestible meal at any time during the day.
Protein boost: PEA Protein PLUS, with its high quality protein and added nutrients and antioxidants, can provide a beneficial protein boost for vegetarians, vegans and anyone who leads an active lifestyle or places high demands on their bodies (such as endurance athletes like runners, swimmers, cyclists and triathletes).
Use before and after exercise to support energy levels, as well as recovery.
Healthy slimming aid: A high-protein calorie-controlled diet combined with a broad spectrum of nutrients, exercise and plenty of pure water can enhance fat loss, improve muscle tone and improve blood fat levels. Protein aids in the repair and growth of muscle, which in turn leads to more calories being burned each day. It also helps people to better control their appetites and calorie intake, as well as regulating blood sugar levels, reducing sugar and snack cravings. Combines with the added herbs, this powder becomes the all-in-one in between snack Mix 1 serving (25g to 30g) into water, fruit or vegetable juices etc,
Contains a minimum on 20 servings per pot.
