beforewisdom Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 (edited) I've used both of these. Naturade Veg Protein Booster is vegan and soy free. The amino acids are complimented and balanced to be a complete, high quality protein. It even has vegan centric supplements in it: http://www.naturade.com/Naturade-SOY-FREE-VEG-Natural-16-oz-p81.html Another good alternative is protein powder extracted/made from brown rice. Brown rice is hypoallergenic. Protein from brown rice will also have the amino acid strengths of grain proteins. Since most of the protein in a vegan diet is from legume protein, brown rice protein powders will balance out the protein vegans consume from the food. They will get more total protein as well as more of their protein complimented ( made complete ) Edited May 9, 2011 by beforewisdom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DV Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Thanks for the info. I use powders when cutting so I'll give this one a try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beforewisdom Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Hey Richard or Syr Linus; I like my stickies can locked, so can you go ahead and lock this thread? I just made the sticky so I wouldn't have to keep looking up this URL every single time someone asked about soy free protein powders. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinaKina Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Why do you want it locked and not have a stickied thread with suggestions from others? I've tried the first one pictures, I think it tastes completely horrible. I use a 50% gemma, 50% rice blend from trueprotein.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjs Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Ditto on not locking this. I appreciate reading other's opinions. I don't know why we would need a single sticky that singles out only one non-soy powder. I haven't tried the naturade stuff, but the Vitamin Shoppe version is awful. The gemma and rice proteins from TP are good, but you still need a lot of other things (fruit, etc.) added in to make it palatable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theresaann Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I have to add, this does taste, not great. I will try the TP one too! Thanks for posting this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbob3000 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I used to take protein shakes made from soy protein powders but when I realized I'm getting loads of soy protein from my food already, I moved to rice- and pea-proteins. The latter can be ordered from bulkpowders.co.uk and I can really recommend it, once you get over its taste (but that applies to practically all protein powders, doesn't it?).

DaN Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I agree cbob3000, pea is good.I actually like the taste, while my family have tried it & think it tastes horrible! lol I get mine from myprotein.co.uk, the stuff you are getting looks to cheaper by £4.00 a kilo, which is quite alot.I may try it.

GinaKina Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I get a rice and pea blend from trueprotein.com. I get them sweetened with stevia, and love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halcyonnwar Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Hey Everyone,I just recently started using the Gemma Pea Protein from True-Protein.com, and I was wondering what percentages/mixes other people like. I was thinking I would want to mix Pea and Hemp (which I used to use, but is expensive on its own). I'd be into mixing Pea, Hemp and Rice. Does anyone have a mix they like? Also, which flavors/sweetening do you guys add? (if any) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CollegeB Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 well done endcruelty! I've taken a lot of this stuff in my time and it was never soy free. This is why the sticky should not be locked. A lot of "veg" protein is pretty much just soy, this certainly demonstrates the need to check labels. I'm a trueprotein consumer now. Good products.

SoyFreeWarrior Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'm a really big fan of the NitroFusion brand. It has 25g of protein (Pea, Brown Rice, & Artichoke), it's good to mix with water or almond milk, and it's soy free. I already tried the Vanilla flavor. I'm going for the Mocha next.

edxvx Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 This is from Carl at www.trueprotein.com. "none of the flavor systems we currently offer contain any animal byproducts, so you should be safe to use any of those materials! Thanks again and have a great week, -Carl" I just wanted to put that out there. This site is pretty awesome in that you can get exactly the type of protein you are looking for (except no raw/organic options) and the prices are really good. I have so far only ordered straight gemma pea protein isolate and have mixed it with my previously purchased brown rice protein and soy protein. I am still in the process of lowering my soy intake. I haven't tried any of the flavors yet, but they have a forum in which people comment on the flavors. They have an Orange Creamsicle flavor I'd like to try.

Where do you buy your nitro-fusion from? I bought some from bodybuilding.com not long ago and the service was great but i'm keen on trying to find it for less than what i paid ($AU110 ppd). Cheers mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tornacl Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I'm for Nitro-Fusion it's great. I like the chocolate. It goes great mixed with cold coffee and rice milk. Need my morning wake up. Or you can do 1 scoop Nitro Fusion, 1 scoop Vega berry flavored, a banana, some frozen blueberries, and ice cubes. Yum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
