What it is

Plant Protein is a supplement that provides the building blocks for muscles and tissues using sources that do not come from animals. Common sources include peas, rice, hemp, and soy.

Why it's used

It is used by people who want to increase their daily protein intake without eating meat or dairy. This is often done to support muscle growth, aid recovery after exercise, or meet nutritional needs on a restricted diet.

How it compares to Vegan Protein

While these terms are often used interchangeably, there is a subtle difference in how they are categorized.

FeaturePlant ProteinVegan Protein

StrictnessFocuses on the botanical originGuaranteed to contain no animal by-products
IngredientsMay occasionally contain animal-derived processing aidsStrictly avoids all animal-derived ingredients

How it's made

The process begins by taking a raw plant source, such as a pea or a soy bean, and grinding it into a meal. This meal is then treated with water and pH-adjusting agents to separate the protein from the fats and carbohydrates. The remaining protein is filtered, purified, and dried into a fine powder that can be put into tubs or capsules.

What it typically costs

These supplements generally sit in a mid-range price bracket. This is because the raw ingredients like peas and rice are relatively inexpensive to grow in bulk, but the industrial process required to isolate the protein from the plant fiber adds to the final cost.
