Elements

Elements

At neue theory we have thoroughly screened each of our ingredients to find options with the lowest levels of contaminants possible. It’s important to know that while pea protein will always contain some lead and cadmium because these elements are naturally found in the earth, we are committed to helping you minimize exposure by using locally grown protein. Compared to a lot of commonly used pea protein bases that we reviewed spec sheets for, our locally grown pea protein brand, Puris, has as much as 33 times lower heavy metal levels. The following test result values are presented in PPM.
