Why consider a plant-based Protein if you're not vegan?

by Jim Tyer on Mar 14, 2023
The benefits of plant-based protein
Plant protein for non-vegans

Of all the macronutrients that are essential for our health, protein is perhaps the most important. Proteins are the building blocks of our body and are required for the growth and repair of tissues, as well as the production of enzymes, hormones, and other important molecules. While protein can be obtained from a variety of food sources, many people choose to supplement their diet with protein powders. Whey protein has long been the popular choice, but should you consider a plant-based protein instead?

As people become more health-conscious and environmentally aware, plant-based diets are becoming increasingly popular. Along with this trend, plant-based protein powders are also gaining popularity as a protein supplement alternative to traditional whey protein. While plant-based protein powders were initially marketed towards vegans and vegetarians, there are several reasons why even non-vegans should consider choosing a plant-based protein powder over whey.

  1. Easy Digestion One of the primary reasons to choose a plant-based protein powder over whey is its easy digestibility. Whey protein can cause digestive problems such as bloating, gas, and stomach cramps in some people, even for those who aren't lactose intolerant. Plant-based protein powders are generally easier to digest and less likely to cause these digestive issues. This is because plant-based protein powders are made from whole foods, which contain digestive enzymes that aid in digestion.

  2. Nutrient-Dense Plant-based protein powders are not only a good source of protein but are also nutrient-dense. They contain essential vitamins and minerals such as iron, calcium, and fiber, which are not present in whey protein. Fiber, in particular, is an essential nutrient that is crucial for maintaining a healthy gut. Plant-based protein powders are rich in fiber, which helps to promote regular bowel movements, prevent constipation, and reduce the risk of colon cancer.

  3. Environmental Sustainability Plant-based protein powders are environmentally sustainable. They require fewer resources to produce and have a lower carbon footprint than whey protein. The production of whey protein requires a significant amount of water and energy usage, as well as the release of greenhouse gases. By choosing a plant-based protein powder, you can reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a healthier planet.

  4. Allergy and Sensitivity Concerns Many people have allergies or sensitivities to dairy products, which makes whey protein unsuitable for them. Plant-based protein powders are made from a variety of sources, such as pea, soy, and hemp, making them suitable for people with allergies or sensitivities to dairy products. They are also gluten-free and free from artificial ingredients.

  5. Complete Amino Acid Profile Plant-based protein powders come in a variety of blends, which offer a range of different proteins for a more complete amino acid profile. 

In conclusion, plant-based protein powders offer several benefits over whey protein, including easy digestion, nutrient density, environmental sustainability, allergy and sensitivity concerns, and a rich source of fiber. Even if you are not vegan or vegetarian, choosing a plant-based protein powder can be an excellent way to supplement your protein intake and improve your overall health and well-being. With a range of different sources and blends available, there has never been a better time to try a plant-based protein powder and experience its many benefits.  B Maximum offers two plant-based proteins - Muscle Evolution Cacao flavoured plant-based protein and Pure Essential Organic Plant-based Protein - neutral flavour (without added flavour or sweeteners).
