PurePea/Peatein Vegan Protein | Designs for Health | 450 grams

Why Peatein protein by Designs for Health? Peatein now called PurePea is a new, true vegan protein which not only tastes amazing, but has high bioavailability, excellent digestibility (98%), and is hypoallergenic. It is a natural pea protein concentrate, which offers a high level of functionality and nutritional benefits. The raw materials used in PurePea are North American grown yellow peas, which are not genetically modified (non-GMO). Purepea vegan protein is available in nonflavored, vanilla and chocolate flavors. PurePea vegan protein is extracted from these dry peas via a patented protein technology which uses no chemical solvents. The pea protein in Purepea™ is not a major allergen, and is, therefore, a safe alternative for people with allergies to milk and milk products who must avoid casein or whey proteins, for those with lactose intolerance, and for vegetarians with soy allergies. It also contains NO DAIRY and is sweetened with the natural herb stevia.

Highlights of Vegan Purepea Protein by Designs for Health: Purepea™ has excellent digestibility (98%): which is a distinct advantage over other vegetable protein isolates. Purepea does not contain the commonly occurring anti-nutritional factors of other legumes (i.e., soy), mainly trypsin inhibitors, phytates, lectins, tannins, and galactocides. (The presence of high levels of these anti-nutritional factors can cause substantial reductions in protein digestibility.) Purepea is easy to absorb as it does not contain anti-nutritional factors such as phytates and tannins that are found in soy which can inhibit absorption of minerals such as iron, zinc, and calcium. Vegan diets are also known to be high in phytates.

Purepea™ has an excellent array of amino acids: including high levels of BCAAs (branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine). While Purepea protein amino acid profile is similar to whey protein, it is particularly high in arginine, lysine, and phenylalanine. Purepea vegan protein’s well-balanced profile fulfills the essential amino acid requirements outlined by the World Health Organization for adults. Pea protein contains low levels of isoflavon. Soy is known to have estrogenic effects that are not always desired.

Benefits of Peas: As pea protein has ACE inhibitory activity, it may have a positive effect on the maintenance of normal blood pressure levels. In rat studies, it has been shown to have a positive impact on total cholesterol and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) by stimulating bile acid formation and excretion. When compared to other vegetables, the yellow peas used in Peatein™ have low levels of phytosteroids (isoflavones), thus minimizing the possible estrogenic effects.

Purepea™ Vegan Protein by Designs for Health: Is a great protein source for athletes and anyone who is physically active due to its favorable amino acid profile and high digestibility, Peatein™ is an excellent choice for consumption before, during, and after exercise. Adequate intake of protein, in particular BCAAs, helps to promote muscle growth and repair, particularly after strenuous resistance training.

Purepea vegan protein is the best tasting vegan protein which is also gluten-free, chemical-free, pesticide-free, grain-free, dairy-free, soy-free and fructose-free. Purepea vegan protein is available in unflavored and natural vanilla flavor. Vanilla Purepea™ is sweetened with the natural herb stevia.
