It is high in protein, supports the muscular system, supports the body in building lean muscle, supports energy levels, and is a great post-workout muscle recovery drink!

Pure Protein Complete is a staple in our homes because of its super clean, proprietary five protein blend! It also contains amino acids, and ancient peat and apple extract that allow the body to absorb and utilize the nutrients in the powder much more easily.

WHY MAKE THE SWITCH Unfortunately, the majority of protein powders contain ingredients that we don't really want to be consuming. Some contain quite a lot of added sugar (as much as 23 grams per scoop), which can cause an unhealthy spike in blood sugar.

Others contain heavy metals and toxins. In fact, in a study by the Clean Label Project 134 products were screened for 130 types of toxins. The study found that many protein powders contain heavy metals (lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury), bisphenol-A (BPA, which is used to make plastic), pesticides, or other contaminants with links to cancer and other health conditions. Some toxins were present in significant quantities. For example, one protein powder contained 25 times the allowed limit of BPA.

These are the last things we want to be worried about, especially when we are focusing on creating healthy habits! Because of Young Living's Seed to Seal standard, we can rest assured that the ingredients used are not only clean, they are ethically sourced and good for our bodies and overall health!
