I get a lot of questions about protein shakes and powders. Many of you want to know if I drink them, which brands I recommend, what types of protein are the best, which ones to avoid… The truth is that most protein powders on the market are filled with highly processed denatured proteins, preservatives, GMOs, and tons of additives. Many are so expensive but also at the same time can be some of the lowest quality ingredients you can buy! If you have any issues relating to where by and how to use Supplier of shiitake mushroom extract powder as Raw Material for pharmaceuticals, you can contact us at our own webpage. Let me give you an example of a protein powder that I would NEVER buy… EAS Soy Protein Powder: Soy Protein Isolate, Fructose, Cocoa Powder (Processed with Alkali), Natural & Artificial Flavor, and Soy Lecithin. This protein powder is not certified organic or non-GMO project verified - so it can contain GMO ingredients. The soy likely comes from "Roundup Ready" soybeans (a GMO) that is engineered to be doused with Monsanto’s herbicide glyphosate.

The World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer deemed glyphosate "probably carcinogenic" - This is definitely not something you should be supplementing your diet with! Besides being GMO, I avoid soy protein because when soy is isolated to just its protein state it becomes denatured and can cause hormonal disruptions. It also endures an extreme amount of chemical processing to become "isolated" - so it is not what I consider real food. Here’s another popular one I wouldn’t buy… Vitamin B12), Soy Lecithin, Natural And Artificial Flavors, Xanthan Gum, Sucralose. This artificially flavored protein powder is made from whey protein that is not certified organic, so it likely comes from cows that were raised on GMOs, growth hormones, antibiotics and other drugs. It also contains the artificial sweetener sucralose (Splenda) which is linked to leukemia. The Center for Science in the Public Interest says sucralose is not safe and should be avoided.

This next protein powder seems pretty clean, but I still wouldn’t buy it… Contains 2 percent or less of: natural vanilla flavor, natural caramel flavor, stevia extract, citric acid. This shake is not certified organic, including the first two ingredients, which means that they may have been treated with synthetic pesticides. Roundup herbicide is also used as a desiccant (drying agent) on some non-organic peas and flaxseed crops. Since I try to avoid these chemicals, I choose certified organic foods whenever possible! This powder is also sweetened with stevia extract (instead of whole stevia leaf), which goes through a chemical-laden process. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked to review this next shake… Lactobacillus acidophilus, thiamine HCl, folic acid. This protein powder is not organic! Although Isagenix claims they make every effort not to use GMOs, this shake is not Non-GMO Project Verified or certified organic so there is a chance that some of the ingredients (such as the fructose) are derived from GMOs.

While their website states their whey comes from New Zealand cows fed on a pasture, they readily admit, "we have also sought other suppliers in Australia and the U.S. ". Without the certified organic or certified grassfed label, there is the possibility that the cows were raised with some GMO feed. The amount of sugar in this shake is pretty high too at 11 grams per serving, which is almost 3 teaspoons! Although this powder is filled with vitamins and minerals, these don’t come directly from real food. The ingredients within the natural flavors in this shake are not identified on the label. Flavors can contain up to 100 ingredients, including "synthetic chemicals such as the solvent propylene glycol or the preservative BHA" as well as GMO-derived ingredients. Another two I get asked about all the time that aren’t organic either… Shakeology (Greenberry): Proprietary Superfood Blend, Protein Blend (Whey Protein Isolate (milk), Pea protein, Flax (seed), Chia (seed), Quinoa (seed)), Chlorella (whole plant), Pea fiber (seed), Spirulina, Yacon (root), Cordyceps (fungi), Camu-Camu (fruit), Acerola cherry (fruit), Chicory fiber (root), Spinach leaf, Pomegranate (fruit), Astragalus (fruit), Bilbury (fruit), Blueberry (fruit), Lycium berry (fruit), Maitake (fungi), Reishi (fungi), Rose hips (fruit), MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), Ashwagandha (root), Enzyme Blend (Amylase, Cellulase, Lactase, Glucoamylace, Alpha-galactosidase, Invertase, Kale (leaf), Lactobacillus sporogenes, Shisandra (fruit), Maca (root), Luo Han Guo (fruit), Cinnamon (bark), Green tea extract (leaf), Moringa (leaf), Sacha inchi (seed), Other ingredients (non-GMO Fructose, Xanthan Gum, Natural Strawberry Flavor (with other natural flavors), Citric acid, Himalayan salt, Stevia extract (leaf).
