Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Vegan Protein Powder is a plant‑based, gluten‑free recovery shake delivering 24 g protein per 144 kcal serving, with added Vitamin C and B12 and all ingredient doses disclosed.
+ 24 g high‑quality protein from pea and rice isolates, suitable for vegans and vegetarians. + Low carbohydrate (5.2 g) and modest fat (2.2 g) profile supports lean muscle gain. + Includes natural flavours and pomegranate fruit powder, a rarity among comparable vegan powders. + Larger pack sizes generally provide better value across the range.
- Vitamin C (91 mg) may modestly inhibit Vitamin B12 absorption; consider spacing intake if using high‑dose C elsewhere. - Contains sucralose as a sweetener, which some users prefer to avoid.
The formulation is consistent across all flavours and sizes, offering a transparent nutrient profile and the brand’s cGMP‑registered, Informed Choice‑certified manufacturing (reportedly from Middlesbrough, UK). Its unique inclusion of natural flavours and pomegranate powder sets it apart from many vegan peers, while the disclosed dosing and modest micronutrient levels keep it straightforward for athletes focused on muscle recovery.
