In a world with countless types of protein available for purchase, what makes Organic Pumpkin Seed Protein Powder superior? There are several factors, some of which are briefly discussed here in the following sections.
A 100% Effective Meat Replacement
When people think of protein powder, they think of meal replacement. But Immune Solution’s Organic Pumpkin Seed Protein Powder with Superfoods is a meal replacement and a meat replacement. That means people can substitute our organic protein powder for one of their daily meals, and it means vegetarians & vegans finally have a way to completely replace meat while still getting the complete amino acid profile meat would provide.
“Amino acid profile” is a term used for the essential amino acids found in protein. Amino acids are the necessary building blocks of the body. They are called ‘essential’ because the body cannot make them; they are crucial to life, so they must be found in food.
Amino acids do the following:
- Build muscle
- Break down food
- Boost the immune system
- Provide a source of energy
- Grow and repair body tissue
- Make hormones and brain chemicals
- Maintain healthy skin, hair, and nails
- Sustain a normal and healthy digestive system
One of the greatest challenges of a vegetarian or vegan diet is getting enough amino acids to maintain a healthy body. That’s why pumpkin seeds greatly benefit vegetarians, vegans, and pescatarians. According to Dr. Fabio Almeida, M.D.:
“Pumpkin seeds are delicious when toasted and tossed on a salad, and they are an easy snack to eat on the go. They’re also a complete protein, containing all nine of the essential amino acids your body needs. Pumpkin seeds contain 12 grams of protein per cup, and eating 1/4 cup will provide you with half of the magnesium you need for the day. Pumpkin seeds are also high in tryptophan, an amino acid your body uses to promote better sleep.”
In addition to the health benefits Dr. Almeida mentioned and numerous others, perhaps the best benefit of pumpkin seeds is they provide all the amino acid benefits of consuming meat, which allows vegetarians & vegans to effectively replace meat with organic pumpkin seeds. It also allows others who want to reduce their meat intake (but not cut it out completely) to still get their daily allotment of amino acids without harming animals and the environment.
No Additives, Dilutants, Sweeteners, or Preservatives
The vast majority of protein powder products available for purchase come formulated with various additives and other materials, unnecessary ingredients intended to “improve” flavor or enhance the product’s shelf life. All these additives ultimately detract from product quality, which is why you won’t find the following ingredients in Immune Solution’s Organic Pumpkin Seed Protein Powder:
- Soy
- Grain
- Dairy
- Sugar
- GMOs
- Gluten
- Artificial flavors
- Allergen formulas
