Protein Supplement Ingredients that you can Trust

Posted on March 23, 2021March 23, 2021 by Drew Taddia

Unfortunately I wouldn't say you can actually 'trust' many supplements in the protein industry, certainly not without reading ingredients. Which is why we got into the supplement industry in the first place. Colouring, msg/preservatives, artificial tastes, and flavours. All which create inflammation/chronic pain, digestion issues and more. As you can see we put a lot of time and effort into our ingredient formulation which is why we have a combination of fermented, organic and sprouted....

Gut Health and Fermented Ingredients

Posted on October 26, 2020November 18, 2020 by Drew Taddia

It's important to read the ingredients when it comes to digestion, gut health and fermented ingredients. Fermented ingredients are hard to find because better quality ingredients cost more to make which means the company will make less of a margin at the end of the day. And let's face it, when it comes to most protein supplements, more about their bottom line than improving health. The lack of quality ingredients at the grocery store and with so many not reading the ingredients - we hav...

Add Fermented Foods to Improve Digestion

Posted on October 24, 2020November 19, 2020 by Drew Taddia

Fermented foods is without question, one of the best ways to improve digestion. Some of my favourite fermented foods include: Kombucha, Sauerkraut, Kimchi and Miso. I choose to make homemade kombucha but there is some great local businesses that produce their own, which in my opinion would be better than a mass produced product. If you are purchasing Sauerkraut make sure it's raw and needs to be stored in the fridge. Kimchi is my favourite of all of these and again I choose to m...

Fermented Pea Protein

Posted on October 15, 2020November 19, 2020 by Drew Taddia

Pea protein is widely used as an ingredient when it comes to plan based protein supplements. They do this because it's an easy way to help increase the protein content in a supplement. However, pea protein is known to be hard to digest which makes this an issue for many people that are looking for a plant based protein that isn't going to cause digestion issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssZZSmZMnE8 Why we chose a fermented pea protein This is why we chose a fermented pea pro...

Our Vanilla Protein had only been out just over a week and we already had a handful of people write in saying things like: I can't believe your protein doesn't bloat me, I've tried all kinds and it's all the same'.Protein supplements usually give me a stomach ache but this doesn't.I think I'm starting to have more energy after one of your shakes, I usually feel sick to my stomach after one but I keep drinking it because I was told to get more protein in. This is attributed to one thing. S...

Will CTP give me Gas or Bloating?

Posted on June 21, 2018 by Drew Taddia

We had a great session last night talking sports nutrition with the athletes from our Hockey camp. We even brought in CTP Smoothies for them to try (thanks Dorothy!). What I didn't realize was, before I could tell them to drink them slowly, they're cups were pretty much empty. I suppose I don't realize that most people chug their smoothies which causes issues like gas, bloating and indigestion. We often get the question, does CTP cause gas or other digestive issues? And the answer is, CTP can...
