Summary
This protein powder features a blend of beneficial plant-based proteins such as pea protein, brown rice protein, and chia seeds, which are minimally processed and provide a good amino acid profile. However, the inclusion of sunflower oil, a highly processed seed oil, and natural flavors, which lack transparency, detracts from its overall ingredient quality. The product is moderately processed, which impacts its score, but it remains a decent option for those seeking plant-based protein sources.
