Vanilla Bean Plant-Based Probiotic Protein Powder

Yes! Pea Protein is a high quality plant-based complete protein that contains all nine essential amino acids. It’s the most popular plant based protein for supplements because it’s uniquely rich in branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine, plus iron and arginine. The challenge with pea protein on its own is that it’s naturally lower in the amino acids methionine and cysteine. That’s why our blend includes hemp protein as well, which is naturally higher in these two amino acids. Together, our blend offers 22 grams of high quality protein and 5 grams combined branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). We also added additional Leucine (one of the essential branched chain amino acids that our body needs to build
muscle and reduce fatigue). Research suggests that the optimal dose of leucine for muscle protein synthesis is 2.5g. Most plant based protein powders do not meet this standard, so we have added additional leucine to our plant based protein to help fill this gap for optimal post-workout recovery.

Absolutely. At neue theory, we are all about transparency, safety and quality products. The general supplement industry is poorly regulated, leaving consumers susceptible to fraudulent products packed with fillers and unsafe levels of potentially dangerous ingredients. Most supplement companies do not test their products for contaminants because third-party testing costs a lot of money. But at neue theory, we want you to feel confident that the supplements you have worked into your daily routine are safe and effective. Using a third-party testing facility, we thoroughly screen for high levels of heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, mercury, lead), mycotoxins, allergens, pesticides and endocrine disruptors. We strongly suggest that any supplement product you purchase and integrate into your day is third-party tested. Like ours here.

Yes, we use a third-party testing agency to test for a wide range of contaminants including high levels of heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, mercury, lead), mycotoxins, allergens, pesticides and endocrine disruptors. neue theory products have all passed all of our rigorous tests.

Yes! We’re perfectionists when it comes to ingredient quality, we handpicked the best quality ingredients from top reputable suppliers and manufacturers. For example, we tried countless pea protein isolates until we found our supplier, PURIS™. Not only does it have the most neutral flavor and smooth mouthfeel but PURIS™ prides itself on traceability, right back to their farmers in the United States of America. Likewise our organic hemp protein was grown on Canadian soils. We have also chosen to work with the trademarked suppliers when we can (PURIS™, OPTI-ZIOME P3HYDROLYZER™ from BIO-CAT Inc and OPTIBIOME® Bacillus Subtilis BS50 from BIO-CAT Inc) which allows for more robust research and clinical support. It took us over two years to develop these initial formulas, we refused to settle until we had found the best of the best!

It’s important to speak to a healthcare professional before trying any new supplements, and that is particularly important while pregnant or breastfeeding. Generally speaking, protein powders are not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to lack of sufficient evidence to confirm safety unless specifically instructed by your healthcare provider. What’s most important is choosing a high quality, third-party tested protein powder like neue theory to safeguard against heavy metal contamination.

Kids need a lot of energy, especially during growth spurts, but their protein needs are actually not as high as we might think (less than 20 grams for kids under 8). Even with picky eaters, these targets are generally not hard to hit when consuming adequate calories. We do not recommend neue theory products for kids as the clinical doses have been tested and evaluated for healthy adults.
