Why did we make PB?
Puori Plant Protein Booster is an organic, calcium fortified vegan protein powder intended to be used as a booster in shakes and food recipes. We developed the product to make it easy for people eating a predominantly plant-based diet to reach the desired daily intake of protein and calcium.
Why should you take Plant protein Booster?
Intake of the right amount of essential amino acids can be a little challenging when eating a plant-based diet. PB provides organic, high quality protein with all the essential amino acids in a decent amount. Furthermore, calcium is a challenging mineral to get through a plant-based diet, since a lot of calcium intake in the western world origins from dairy products. PB is therefore fortified with calcium naturally derived from algae.
Ingredient history
Algae calcium is derived from fossil red algae and naturally rich in calcium and trace minerals, which are preserved thru a through a cold process to retain all nutrients. The minerals are in organic form, which results in a higher absorption rate compared to other calcium substances such as calcium carbonate. Due to its fossil form the calcium dissolve quicker in the stomach’s acidic environment, which eases the uptake and digestion. Algae calcium is natural and made of fossiled plants hence, it is suitable for vegan products which is why we have selected this ingredient for Puori Plant Protein Booster.
Pea protein
High-quality organic pea protein, which contains many of the essential amino acids, is easy to dissolve and can be added to smoothies, cooking and baking.
Algae calcium
Calcium extracted from fossil algae, which is naturally rich in calcium and trace minerals, and are protected through a process that preserves all nutrients.
Benefits
Muscle
Protein contains amino acids which are the building blocks our muscles need to maintain and build them. PB consists exclusively of pea protein, which contains many of the essential amino acids that we cannot form ourselves and must have through the diet. In addition, calcium is also important for our muscles to function normally. Calcium runs in and out of the muscles and act as a signal to the muscles.
Bones
Our bones in the body consist mainly of calcium, which means that calcium is of course important for normal bones. In addition, protein also helps maintain normal bones. Many people benefit from a supplement of calcium and especially people who primarily eat plant-based as it is difficult to cover the daily calcium needs without dairy products.
Digestion
The gastrointestinal system and digestion are an important function in the body, as it is the one that ensures that we get nourishment into the body via the food we eat. A vital player in this function are digestive enzymes, which allow the body to absorb the nutrients that are in the food. Calcium helps ensure that digestive enzymes function normally.
