All proteins consist of different amino acids. However usually plant based proteins lack in BCAAs (branched chain amino acids), that are important building blocks of proteins and needed by our bodies. Athletes even consume sometimes extra BCAAs during workouts for better athletic results. Therefore in our ICONFIT Plant Protein we have added extra vegan sourced BCAA amino acids to achieve a more complete protein with better effect on your body.

We also specially added B6 vitamin as there is often not enough of it in plant based diets. Vitamin B6 contributes to normal protein and glycogen metabolism, the functioning of the nervous system, psychological functions, the normal formation of red blood cells, the functioning of the immune system and the regulation of hormonal activity. It also helps reduce fatigue and exhaustion.

Maca root powder included in the product has many important benefits. It is very rich in vitamin C, copper, iron, vitamin B6 and essential fatty acids (Omega 3 and Omega 9). Maca contains significant amounts of 18 amino acids, 7 of which are essential amino acids. In addition to all that it also contains plant sterols, thus being an indispensable nutrient in everyone's daily menu.

Inulin is a beneficial prebiotic fiber derived from the prized chicory root. Because it is dietary fiber, inulin can stimulate bowel movements, which is important for overall intestinal health. It is very important to balance the amount of fiber and fluid in our diet. Inulin is a soluble fiber and when this fiber mixes with water or other fluids in the body, it turns into a gel. This gel makes the stomach empty much slower, so you end up feeling fuller longer. Fiber helps keep us full and stabilizes our blood sugars. This can prevent from over-eating and help us make better food choices.

We also put a lot of effort into choosing the best protein sources from pea, brown rice and hemp that together form the best acting protein blend. Our chosen ingredients have excellent solubility, neutral flavours and smoothly pleasant texture. They are nicely flavoured to make them enjoyable to consume on a daily basis.
