Plant Based Protein: buying guide

How to choose a plant protein

  • Blends are best: combining pea and rice protein gives a fuller amino acid profile than a single plant source.
  • Protein per serve: plant proteins often have slightly larger scoops for the same protein, so compare grams of protein, not scoops.
  • Texture: plant proteins are thicker and earthier than whey. Chocolate and vanilla flavours are popular first choices.
  • Allergens: check for soy, gluten or nuts if you need to avoid them.

Plant protein or whey?

If you eat dairy without problems, whey protein is usually cheaper per gram of protein and mixes thinner. If you are vegan, lactose intolerant or simply prefer plant foods, a plant blend does the same job of topping up your daily protein. See all protein powders.

Always read the label and follow the directions for use. If you have a medical condition, are pregnant or take regular medication, check with your doctor first.

Plant Based Protein: questions and answers

Is plant protein as good as whey?
Well-formulated plant blends, such as pea and rice together, provide all the essential amino acids. You may need a slightly larger serve to match the leucine in whey, so follow the label and compare protein per serve.
Is plant-based protein dairy free?
Plant proteins are made without milk ingredients, but always check the allergen statement for "may contain" warnings if you have a severe allergy.
Why is my plant protein shake thick?
Plant proteins absorb more liquid than whey. Add a little more water or milk alternative and shake for longer, or blend it with ice.
