Ingredients Label
Active Ingredients
Pea Protein
Pea protein is one of the most commonly used plant-based proteins.
Although not all proteins are created equal, pea protein passes the amino acid quality test; it has been shown to contain similar BCAA (branched-chain amino acid) levels as whey protein (1).
BCAAs are the amino acids that are most relevant to muscle growth.
Rice Protein
Rice protein is another great plant-based source of protein.
It contains extra amounts of the amino acids that are lacking in pea protein (and vice-versa), making the two proteins a great combination (2).
Artichoke Protein
Although not as prominent as the other two protein sources, artichoke is another great plant-based protein source.
Like the others, it contains a fair share of BCAAs (3).
Who Takes It?
Vegan athletes, or those with allergies to traditional milk-protein powders, would benefit from using RawFusion.
How to Take
Mix 1 scoop (30.13g) with 250mL water or other beverage, and consume either post-workout or as needed.
Side Effects
Excess protein consumption can worsen an existing kidney or liver condition.
Pea protein may not be ideal if you are prone to gout.
Pros
- Vegan-approved
- Affordable
- Range of flavours available.
Cons
- Not quite as many BCAAs per serving as whey protein.
Conclusion
RawFusion is a great plant-based protein powder.
San Nutrition have put plenty of thought into the taste, texture, and price, while also maintaining good proportions of amino acids.
It’s a very affordable protein supplement for vegans, people with milk allergies, or those who just want a new alternative to traditional protein powders.
