It also contains a vitamin and mineral blend which provides a significant amount of 27 nutrients including vitamin D, calcium, iron, vitamin A, B vitamins, zinc, choline, and more. These nutrients may help fill gaps in your diet, and the shake could also potentially take the place of a multivitamin on the days you drink it, depending on your individual needs. At the same time, take care that you’re not over-consuming vitamins and minerals, especially if you’re also consuming vitamin or mineral supplements or have certain medical conditions, such as hemochromatosis (iron build-up in the body).The Reference Nutrient Intake (RNI) is 0.75g of protein per kilogram bodyweight per day for adults, with additional requirements for growth and repair, including for children and in pregnancy. These are shown in the table below, based on average bodyweights at the time the recommendations were made. Note that this was in 1991 and that average bodyweights now are likely to be higher: If you're looking for a plant-based option, Orgain also makes a vegan, organic shake, although it is not as creamy as the milk protein version. The Quest Nutrition Protein Powder is made of whey isolate and casein protein. Casein protein has a lot of benefits including its slow-dissolving nature, which means you’ll feel less hungry for a longer period of time. That’s why Quest protein can be an excellent meal replacement or a shake to help you lose weight as well. We began by examining the type of protein used in each powder. Our selection ranged from whey and casein to various plant-based options. Available in vanilla and chocolate flavors, KinderSprout is vegan and free of GMOs and also doesn’t contain dairy, nuts, soy, yeast, eggs, wheat, shellfish, or gluten making it a good choice for a range of allergies and dietary restrictions.

Each serving for kids 4 years and older provides eight grams of protein from whey protein concentrate along with two billion CFU probiotics, and has an organic spinach leaf blend mixed with the protein. You can easily halve the dose for kids 2-3 years old. While some may appreciate the added probiotic, note some children may not benefit from the added probiotic if they have underlying gut issues or take other probiotic supplements.

How to Make Your Own Protein Shake

Protein powder can be added to smoothies to provide extra protein, but still get a good amount of whole foods When using protein supplements, it can be easy to overload the body with more protein than is really needed. This can be harmful to the kidneys and also cause gastrointestinal distress such as diarrhea and bloating. Each serving has only two grams of sugar, but note it does have stevia, which may not suit all taste preferences. As for the flavours, they are your typical berry, chocolate, mocha, peanut butter, and vanilla choices. But as far as taste is concerned, you get a natural, earthy taste because of the ingredients. Stevia can help mask it a little. In the UK, average intakes of protein are above the Reference Nutrient Intake (RNI) including in vegetarians and vegans.

We love that KinderSprout’s drink also provides three grams of fiber and 28 essential vitamins and minerals per serving, as it is made with an organic fruit and vegetable blend. This makes KinderSprout a good choice for kids that need a protein boost as well as other nutrients in their diet. Our goal was to find powders that were low in unnecessary additives but rich in essential nutrients. Best for those who want a ton of variety in flavor options and for people who are experiencing low hunger. The fortified vitamins and minerals and high protein can be a good meal substitute in these cases. The Vega Sport Premium Protein Powder is a vegan-friendly protein, which is 100% plant-based.

Although the carbs and the overall calorie count are higher than other proteins, you will also get 5 grams of BCAA amino acids and an additional 5 grams of Glutamic Acid. All in all, you’ll receive 9 essential amino acids with each serving.As for the micronutrients, each serving comes with 4% of your daily calcium, 15% of iron, and 8% of sodium.
