Description
Pea protein isolate is a protein from pea seeds that is rich in the essential amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine. These essential amino acids play an essential role in the regulation of muscle protein synthesis (building) and therefore ensure a positive NET protein balance. Pea protein isolate has similar digestion kinetics (digestion rate) as whey-based protein sources and is therefore available in the blood quickly after digestion, creating a more robust anabolic environment. This leads to better recovery of muscle fibers, energy producing devices and enzymes. Because of this rich protein from vegetable extract, it is perfectly suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
