Plant Based Vegan Protein Powder for Muscle Gain

Yes, Plantigo provides all the essential amino acids necessary for muscle repair and growth. This supports the recovery process after workouts, helping to rebuild and strengthen muscles effectively.

Pea protein isolates and blends are excellent options due to their complete amino acid profile. These proteins are easily digestible and offer high quality nutrients for muscle recovery.

This means the food or protein powder has all 9 Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) that our body doesn't manufacture itself.

Watch out for products that claim to be "complete", but only contain small amounts of the EAAs just to tick the box. We've seen popular brands use as low as 10mg of an EAA just to put the "complete" label on it.

For most people, yes, it can be just as effective. However, you might need to consume slightly more vegan protein to match the effects of whey, due to differences in digestion rates.

Plantigo's special formulation has 90-95% bioavailability (the amount your body can actually use), which is the same as whey protein.

That means 24g of Plantigo protein is the same as 24g of whey protein.

Unfortunately, many plant-based protein powders don't have the same bioavailability, so you'll need to consume more to get the amount of protein they claim on the package.

• Some individuals may experience digestive issues with certain sources like soy.
• It’s important to choose a protein type that suits your digestive system.
• Consider dietary needs and potential allergies when selecting a protein.

In general, Plantigo customers report less digestive issues and bloating compared to other products they've tried.

For example, many people consuming whey protein don't realise they're lactose intolerant. This makes switching to Plantigo an ideal choice for their digestive health.

The time frame varies based on workout intensity and overall diet. Some may see improvements within weeks, while for others it may take a few months; consistency is key.

It's important to remember that just because you don't "feel" the benefits, that doesn't mean your body isn't experiencing them and you'll get better results over time.

You might not experience weight gain if you're consuming the same amount of calories from mangos versus junk food. However, it's pretty obvious that consuming fruit and vegetables over the long term is going to be better for your body.

We use Sucralose to add a little sweetness. It comes from natural sugar cane but is 600 times sweeter than sugar (so we only need a tiny amount).

It has zero calories, doesn’t spike your blood sugar, is naturally excreted from your body without absorption, and has been approved as food safe around the world for decades.

When you read the actual research papers (not the media & "health guru" hype), it's perfectly safe and used as per the FDA recommended value of 50-60mg per serving.

But you can always choose our “Unflavoured / Unsweetened” option if you desire.

According to the Dietary Guidelines For Indians (Indian Council Of Medical Research, 2024), the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) is 0.83g of protein per kg of bodyweight.

For example, the protein RDA using average weights in India are:

• Women: 55kg x 0.83g = 45.7g
• Men: 65kg x 0.83g = 54g

Therefore, we use the average bodyweight of 60kg x 0.83g = 49.8g to calculate that one glass of Plantigo is 48% of the RDA in India.

For your personal level, you should calculate it using your own bodyweight.

For muscle building in beginner and intermediate lifters, the scientific research shows that the two most important factors are:

1. Protein Intake
Your total daily protein intake in non-dieting conditions should be 1.6g to 2.2g per kg of body weight e.g. a 60kg person should have 96g to 132g of protein per day.

You can consume this protein (including Plantigo) spaced out of the entire day. That means you don't have to eat protein specifically before of after your workout, but if you prefer you can have Plantigo 1.5 hours before your workout or immediately after it.

2. Progressive Overload
You must continue to add more weight to your training to progressively overload the muscles and make them grow (hypertrophy).

Research generally agrees that 3 sets of 8-12 reps are ideal. You should finish your last set with about 1 rep left in the tank i.e. you could do one more rep if needed, but not two.

As you find that weight easier to lift, you should add more weight to some of your sets, building up to the entire set when possible.

Following this approach will get the average person the results they desire, then you can consult with professionals to reach the next level e.g. entering bodybuilding competitions.
