Active Ingredients
Soy Protein Isolate
Soy protein is a vegan alternative to dairy based protein.
It contains all 9 essential amino acids, while being lactose and cholesterol free.
Soy protein is very high in branch chain amino acids (BCAAs), which have an anti-catabolic effect on muscle tissue.
It’s also high in glutamine and arginine, which are critical for post workout recovery.
Xylitol
Xylitol is a natural flavoring sugar alcohol that is extracted from fruits.
It has a similar sweetness to sugar but 40% fewer calories. Because it is very low on the glycemic index, none of the harmful effects of sugar apply to xylitol.
Stevia
Stevia is a zero calorie sweetener that comes from a green, leafy plant.
It has been shown to lower blood pressure and helps to fight diabetes.
