Garden of Life Sport Organic Plant-Based Protein - Chocolate - 32.17 oz
Overview
Garden of Life Sport Organic Plant-Based Protein is a complete, organic vegan protein powder in a rich chocolate flavor, made for athletes who want clean fuel and faster recovery. Each two-scoop serving delivers 30 g of plant protein with a full profile of all essential amino acids, including 5.5 g of naturally occurring BCAAs and 5 g of glutamine to help refuel and repair muscles after training.
The protein comes from an Organic Performance Protein Blend of organic pea protein, three sprouted legume proteins, and organic cranberry — and because nothing is synthetic, the BCAAs come entirely from those organic ingredients. An Organic Muscle Recovery Blend of organic tart cherry, turmeric, and goji berry adds antioxidants for post-workout recovery, and each serving includes 2 billion CFU of clinically studied Bacillus subtilis DE111 probiotics.
Made from certified organic plants grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, the formula has no added sugars and no fillers, sweetened only with a touch of organic stevia. It is NSF Certified for Sport — tested for banned substances and label accuracy — plus USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, NSF Certified Gluten-Free, and Certified Vegan, in a 19-serving (912 g) tub.
