Scout's take
USDA Organic plant-based protein that's notably good for a legume but still less bioavailable than whey or other animal-source proteins, meaning more grams are needed to deliver the same usable amino acids for muscle protein synthesis. Naturally low in methionine, so it does not stand alone as a complete protein and is typically blended with rice. Organic certification controls pesticides and synthetic fertilizers but not soil-accumulated heavy metals — pea crops are well-documented lead and cadmium accumulators.
