What The Organic Protein Powder Means To Your Health

By Janine Hughes


Today, the major supplement stores are all dominated by protein products. Be it from meat, vegetable, or fruits, this now ranks top as one of the most demanded supplements. Most nutritionists concur that the pricier blends of the organic protein powder digests faster and delivers more nutrients to the muscles, and are thus better alternatives. However, before taking this advice on, the issues like the dietary needs, personal goals, and financial capability must be factored in.

However, before answering this, it is important to state that protein powder is available in several flavors, with the vanilla, chocolate, peanut butter, and chocolate flavors as the most common. They also occur in three forms; the isolate, the concentrate, and the hydrolysate. While the concentrates have low fat content, they are higher in carbohydrate content. The isolates on the other hands are lowest in fat, and lactose, but highest in protein content. Lastly, hydrolysate why cost more since it is less allergic. It is processed in a way that it is easier to metabolize.

While in the market it may not be easy to identify which one is which and which one in non-natural, there are three labels that might help the buyer to identify the product. When it is labeled 100% organic, this indicates that the product contains no trace of any of the said or other non-natural chemicals.

The main advantage of natural protein is that they offer the essential ingredients to the body without introducing the unnatural substances found in antibiotics, fertilizers, and pesticides into the body. As such, there are healthier options as compared to similar products that are not natural.

Although these products results from animals that are not fed with growth hormones and other substances considered being non-natural, they are not less in nutritional value. In fact, they are said to taste better, unlike the conventional ones that are said to have a chalky and bitter taste resulting from excess amounts of fake sugar content.

Even with this, these products are said to taste better than the conventional options that sometimes taste bitter due to the excessive amount of fake sugar content. The conventional products also have a chalky taste. The natural varieties do not sacrifice quality as they are rich in vitamins, minerals, and amino-acids.

Other than milk based natural products, there are the raw protein powders that have nothing to do with the cow. The products are plant based and are thus free of dairy products, sugars, gluten, soy, and vegan. They are easier to ingest. They are not heat or processed thus preserves most of the protein. They can however be sweetened with stevia or other natural sweeteners, but not the artificial ones.

Unlike the conventional varieties, this powder is likely to cost more. They are also limited in flavors as the most common ones are chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry. However, for those who suffers from food allergies and are gluten intolerance, this is the option to go. They are also a good alternative for those who want to go completely natural. They are also widely available for anyone interested and are what you should be looking for.
