health seeker Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Hi people, I write from Spain, so forgive my poor english. I'm a fitness teacher working in a gym for 12 years and naturopathic therapyst. I'm always seeking ways to reconcile fitness and sport practices with health, so discovering Robert's job has been very exciting to me. I have read Brendan Brazier's job (Thrive) and actually I'm studying Robert's book and trying to incorporate to my nourisment and supplements. I'm having some problems, I hope that some of you, that have lot of experience, will help Looks like in spain we have not possibility to get rice or pea protein, only hemp. I have been trying ways to change taste because I don't like it . I have been doing that mixture to my snacks and post workouts: 2 tablespoons of hemp protein1 teaspoon of maca powder1 teaspoon of chlorella powder1 tablespoon of coconut oil1 1/2 tablespoons of mascavo sugar300ml of almond or coconut milk the fact is that I feel digest disconfort after the consumption ¿someone can help?Sure do you know more recipes to improve the hemp taste, do you? At Robert's book menus a lot of times appears "green smothie" or "green protein shake". What about the recipe, only hemp and water? It tastes horrible! I want to congratulate you for your great job. You are a guide and inspiration. Thank you. Big embraces for everybody!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconut milk gives many people (including me) GI distress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
health seeker Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Thank you Bonn1997. I think hemp is a good protein source too (just little low in triptophan, I think). Just need improve flavor to get some plasure of my protein shake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrestler Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Ya health_seeker, here in India, we dont get rice/pea protein powder. In fact, none of the foods americans eat (vegans or not), do i get them here . i try to manage with the knowledge of nutrition that i have. so far, its going ok.. But none of these things - asparagus,brussel sprouts,broccoli, hemp seeds/powder,spirulina , even seeds lie pumpkin, sunflower etc are unavailable ... So, choices are v v limited . I wish someone would really help me locate pea protein in India - Only the moderators can know this .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrestler Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 If you have internet access, can't you order whatever you want online? Dear Bonn, Cost includes Shipping & finally it comes to a whoppin huge amount & what ? The powder lasts just few days, dats it? It will more than burn a hole in my pocket. I am trying for some local ( but decent ) products & there are a few here, though the choices are limited. vegetarians have soy/milk to go for - no hemp/pea/rice stuff. So, i go for soy.

vegan_rossco Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Hemp protein and water is super gross! Try it with rice milk or hemp milk and keep stirring it now and again because it tends to settle at the bottom! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
