Protein powder isn’t a nutritional necessity, you can easily get enough protein from a well-rounded diet, and eating whole foods instead of just the protein component of a specific vegetable, seed or nut, that was extracted through a variety of processing methods, is always better healthwise.
These homemade protein powders are made with lactose-free and gluten-free whole ingredients plus some amazing superfoods. They’re not just basic protein powders, they’re health-promoting, natural supplements, boosted with functional foods that provide benefits beyond basic nutrition.
