Consumer studies show there’s been about a 500% increase in U.S. plant-based eaters since 2014. If that includes you – whether you’re plant-based to fully vegan – you already know the many health benefits that come with it.1

However, it’s important to be certain you’re getting enough protein in your daily diet.

In fact, a high-protein diet is particularly important for:2-7

  • Healthy aging
  • Appetite management/craving control
  • Proper weight management
  • Healthy muscles and body composition
  • Bone health
  • Metabolic wellness

With that noted, though, there are two very important facts you must be aware of:

FACT 1: Consuming the Right Amount of
Clean Protein Is Very SMART

Lower Protein Intake

Many people – whether they’re plant-based, vegetarian, vegan or not – aren’t even coming close to eating the right amount of clean protein their bodies need to properly achieve these benefits above.

Recent research suggests a range of 0.7–1.0 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight daily may be the sweet spot, and that means the average person should consume about 140 - 200 grams of clean protein per day.3,8,9

This can be hard for anyone to achieve today – especially those who are plant-based!

FACT 2: Consuming Plant-Based Protein
You’ll Actually ENJOY is Crucial.

plant proteins

Yes, research suggests eating more plant-based protein meals may help support:11-14

  • Heart health
  • Metabolic wellness, including maintaining healthy blood sugar levels
  • Healthy aging
  • Digestive wellness
  • Healthy lipid levels, including LDL, non-HDL, and apolipoprotein B levels
  • Overall health

HOWEVER, there are a couple “real-world” problems no one talks about that make all the difference in eating the right amount of plant-based protein:

Ease of preparation and TASTE.

Preparing your own homemade meals that provide you enough plant-based protein on a day-to-day basis is very difficult – if not downright impossible – for most people today.

And, yes, there are plant-based protein powders out there that make it easier.

HOWEVER, the general consensus is that many plant-based protein powders out there taste mediocre…1

While some plant-powders have been described by consumers as tasting downright HORRIBLE, like grass, or dirt clippings, or both.

AND HERE’S THE KEY REAL-WORLD FACT:

If you don’t find something enjoyable to eat, no matter how good it is for your body, it’s virtually impossible to routinely keep eating it.

Now, you’ll soon be having your ultra-healthy plant-based proteins and enjoying them, too, but FIRST, there are…

3 OTHER BIG PROBLEMS WITH PLANT-BASED PROTEINS YOU NEED TO KNOW

Both the “bad taste” and convenience factors obviously matter when it comes to plant-based protein.

However – for your health – you need to be aware of some other common pitfalls regarding plant-based proteins so they don’t end up providing you far less benefit than you anticipated:

white quinoa seeds

BIG PROBLEM #1: “Wimpy” Proteins That Are Hard for the Body to Use

Now, for every plant-based protein meal you eat, you’ll want to hit that “sweet spot” of getting about 20 - 40 grams of protein per meal.2,15,16

But with that in mind, consider how much you’d have to eat of each of the following to gain access to 20 grams of protein:

  • 1 cup of lentils
  • 1 can of chickpeas
  • 2 ½ cups of quinoa

That’s edging on “ridiculous” on a routine basis, right?

You see, plant-based foods are not concentrated sources of protein.

They tend to be quite low in the amount of certain essential amino acids – and these amino acids are called “essential” because your body needs them, but it can’t produce them on its own, so it must get them from food sources.13,17

Another big challenge is that plant-based protein can be difficult for the body to “access,” as plants can package nutrients like protein in the equivalent of storage units that the human body is not equipped to tap into.13,17

In other words, plant-based protein is not always very digestible, and if your body can’t digest it, it can’t absorb it and you won’t reap all the benefits.

Now, YES, there is an easy way to bypass these issues and enjoy the great rewards of adding sufficient amounts of premium plant-based proteins to your diet, but next you need to know…

BIG PROBLEM #2:
The High-Carb High-Calorie Price

Many people who want to look great in the mirror are trying hard to limit the amount of carbs and/or calories they consume….

And that can make the high volume of carbs and calories that come from eating certain higher-protein plant foods quite frustrating, to say the least.

For example, here’s the “price” you’ll pay for getting 20 grams of protein from some of the most common sources of plant protein:

  • Tofu: 180 calories, 12g fat, 5g net carbs
  • Chickpeas: 360 calories, 44g net carbs
  • Pumpkin seeds: 475 calories, 37g net carbs, 20g fat
  • Peanuts: 490 calories, 42g fat, 11g net carbs
  • Lentils: 260 calories, 27g net carbs

Now, is there a way to enjoy the rewards of eating plant-based protein meals that provide the healthy and satisfying protein you need WITHOUT paying this frustrating price?

YES there is, but next you definitely need to know…

bad tasting proteins

BIG PROBLEM #3: AVOID Plant-Based Protein Powders (Unless…)

Again, using the right plant-based protein powder to get the protein your body needs is really smart.

However, until now, the big catch has been in that loaded word above, “right.”

Because until now, finding a plant-based protein powder that hits ALL the right marks – truly clean and premium quality, carb- and calorie-conscious, simple-to-use, and great-tasting – can be as tricky as trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Overall, many plant-based protein powders out there suffer one or more of these five serious drawbacks:

  • They don’t taste good… often not even close! Again, you shouldn’t have to hold your nose and force anything down, and it’s nearly impossible to eat something routinely if that’s what it takes.
  • They don’t provide you high-quality sources of protein. As you learned above, your body needs a full supply of essential amino acids in the proteins you eat if you want to fully experience the health benefits. But some plant-based proteins flat-out fail you in this regard – they can be lacking in one or more key essential amino acids.
  • They are not highly digestible. As you also now know, many plant-based proteins can be difficult to digest, and if that’s the case, they can “go in one end and out the other” versus your body actually absorbing them and obtaining their benefits. Why plant-based protein powders would use these hard-to-digest proteins in their formulas makes ZERO sense, yet buyer beware – some do!
  • They don’t provide the additional nutrients your body needs. One of the top reasons to eat more plant-based foods is fiber, which cannot be obtained from animal-based foods. And MOST people today are not eating nearly enough fiber.18 It would stand to reason that every plant-based protein powder out there would provide you fiber – but that’s not always the case.
  • They’re not CLEAN. It’s just common sense that you want to avoid putting potentially harmful junk in your body. Nonetheless, look closely at the labels to make sure there’s nothing you might be looking to avoid, such as artificial sweeteners, flavors, colors, GMOs, gluten, soy, and dairy. And make sure that your plant-based protein is independently tested for major allergens, pesticides, glyphosate, heavy metals, and microbes.

THE GREAT NEWS: The Brand-New Premium Plant-Based Protein That Actually Tastes DELICIOUS (20 grams of protein yet just 7 net carbs per serving!)

If you’ve ever tried to “suffer down” a plant-based protein powder, you’ll understand right away that this is truly VERY big news…

There’s finally an easy way to get premium plant-based protein that you’ll actually CRAVE.

It’s called BioTRUST Low Carb Plant, and it’s the brand-new plant-based protein powder with a whopping 20 grams of protein and 5 grams of gut-healthy fiber…

Yet just 7 net grams of carbs and just 150 calories per serving!

YES, BioTRUST Low Carb Plant Tastes Amazing

pouring a shake into a glass

Now, the first thing you’ll notice is that BioTRUST Low Carb Plant is easy to make – just 30 seconds and your plant-based protein meal is ready. Plus, it mixes smooth, with no clumps.

The very next thing you’ll notice?

Your BioTRUST Low Carb Plant actually tastes creamy and delicious – like your favorite chocolate or vanilla shake!

Yes, that deserves a standing ovation, because that means you no longer have to worry about “forcing down” healthy plant-based protein that has the consistency of dirt and often tastes like it!

Try it once – either the chocolate or vanilla caramel flavor, whichever you like most – and you’ll be hooked on something that is amazingly good for you for a change!

YES, BioTRUST Low Carb Plant is a Top-Quality
and COMPLETE Source of Protein

Low Carb Plant shake

Again, some plant-based sources of protein out there are not complete proteins – they’re low in one or more essential amino acids (EAAs) – which defeats a big part of the purpose of consuming protein in the first place!

However – and this is a big deal – BioTRUST Low Carb Plant is a complete protein!

That means it provides you ALL the essential amino acids – including high levels of the “holy grail” branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) leucine, isoleucine and valine, which, along with the rest of the EAAs, play an important role in lean muscle repair and recovery after resistance training (i.e. they help you love the body you see in the mirror!)19

Now, you should know that the well-balanced amino acid profile of BioTRUST Low Carb Plant fulfills the amino acid requirements outlined by the World Health Organization for adults.

Specifically, it provides you about 3.7g of BCAAs per serving. This includes about 1.6g of L-arginine (this important amino acid is the precursor to nitric oxide, providing nutritional support that promotes circulatory and cardiovascular health, as well as athletic performance and recovery.)13,20

The bottom line here is that with your plant-based protein, YES, you want to be certain you enjoy it… AND you want to make certain you’re not making any sacrifices in terms of the protein’s nutrition power.

And, yes, each serving of BioTRUST Low Carb Plant provides you 20 grams of premium-quality protein from pea and Sacha Inchi including all the EAAs.

YES, BioTRUST Low Carb Plant is Highly Digestible

Low Carb Plant Protein

QUESTION: What good is a plant-based protein that largely can “go in one end and out the other”?

ANSWER: It’s not very good at all, because that means you aren’t getting all the benefits you want, PLUS it can mean those uncomfortable “side effects” of not digesting well.

That’s why we worked hard (and smart) to ensure your BioTRUST Low Carb Plant was highly digestible and easy on the stomach.

First, it features both pea and Sacha Inchi protein, both known for being highly digestible.

Second, we went the “extra mile” and included a blend of digestive enzymes to further assist with proper digestion and absorption, including:

  • Protease to assist with proper protein digestion
  • Amylase to assist with proper carbohydrate digestion
  • Cellulase, an enzyme that humans don’t produce, to assist with difficult-to-digest plant fibers and help unlock the energy from plants

In short, one “really annoying problem” with some plant-based proteins is that they can be limited in terms of digestibility.17

PROBLEM SOLVED!

YES, BioTRUST Low Carb Plant Provides You an Additional Key Nutrient… Along with Superfoods!

If BioTRUST Low Carb Plant just tasted amazing… was just a complete premium-quality plant-based protein… and was just highly digestible… it would easily be worth every penny at its regular price (and a “steal” at today’s special introductory price below!)

However, because we know you’ll be using BioTRUST Low Carb Plant both as a meal and as a satisfying snack, we wanted to make certain it provided you additional nutritional support, including a key nutrient that many people seem to be missing.

That’s why you’re getting…

#1) FIVE GRAMS OF GUT-NOURISHING FIBER PER SERVING

Many if not MOST people could use far more fiber in their diet, and it is one of the key reasons to eat more plant-based foods.18

That’s because fiber plays a critical role in health in many ways.

In fact, both clinical trials and observational studies show that higher fiber intake promotes heart health, digestive health, healthy weight management, metabolic wellness and overall longevity.21

With 5 grams of healthy fiber in every serving of BioTRUST Low Carb Plant, you can feel good that you’re helping yourself in this mission-critical area!

#2) FIFTEEN TOTAL PLANT-BASED SUPERFOODS!

Take a quick look at the list below, because chances are high that you’ll recognize some, if not all, of these outstanding superfoods:

  1. Pea
  2. Oat
  3. Amaranth
  4. Quinoa
  5. Buckwheat
  6. Millet
  7. Chia
  8. Sacha Inchi
  9. Maca
  10. Organic Chaga
  11. Organic Cordyceps
  12. Organic Lion’s Mane
  13. Organic Maitake
  14. Organic Reishi
  15. Organic Shiitake

Yes, these are the superfoods you’re getting with each and every serving of your BioTRUST Low Carb Plant!

It’s also worth knowing that we’re even going the “extra mile” here, because with the 6 organic mushrooms on the list, we ONLY use the fruiting body of the mushrooms – not the mycelium and starch that some other supplements providing mushrooms contain.

In brief, with BioTRUST Low Carb Plant, you’re getting everything you want and need in a plant-based protein powder – PLUS additional superfoods because you deserve the extra “superpower”!

YES, BioTRUST Low Carb Plant is Clean

Here at BioTRUST, it is our belief that every plant-based protein powder (and every supplement of any sort!) should be truly clean and independently tested.

Unfortunately, that is not always the case.

Rest assured, though, that BioTRUST Low Carb Plant is not only vegan, of course, but also non-GMO, gluten-free, soy-free and dairy-free, and naturally flavored and sweetened. That means it’s also free of any artificial sweeteners, flavors, or colors.

What’s more, BioTRUST Low Carb Plant is made in a GMP-certified manufacturing facility. And – this is important – it’s also third-party tested for pesticides, glyphosate, heavy metals, microbes (including yeasts and molds), major allergens, and of course, potency.

Yes, that means you can be certain that what’s on the label is in the bag – nothing more, nothing less. With BioTRUST Low Carb Plant, you can feel good about fueling your body with clean plant-based protein that provides what your body needs – and nothing it doesn’t.

  4. Enjoy your smooth, creamy, and ultra-healthy plant-based protein that tastes like a chocolate or vanilla shake!
