Vegan Protein Welcome Kit

When determining the optimal protein intake for active individuals, the following factors should be considered: mode and intensity of exercise, protein quality, energy intake, carbohydrate intake, and timing of protein intake.

Generally, for endurance exercise, recommended protein intakes range from 1.0g/kg body weight to 1.6g/kg body weight per day, while for strength/power exercise, protein requirements range from 1.6 to 2.0g/kg body weight/day. So while both endurance and strength training increase the need for protein,  increased protein in endurance exercise is needed, predominantly, for an increase in mitochondrial density and related proteins as well as increased leucine oxidation (elevating the overall protein requirement), while increased protein for strength athletes is required for the synthesis of new muscle and/or to repair muscle damage.

Gnarly Nutrition includes a digestive enzyme blend and probiotics in our protein products to improve digestion, maximize protein assimilation, and improve general gut health.  We’ve had folks that can’t usually digest “whey” tell us they have no digestive problems when using our whey-based products; we attribute this to the high quality of our ingredients and the inclusion of digestive enzymes and probiotics.

Gnarly Vegan is a meal replacement and is thus higher in calories and carbohydrates than most other Gnarly products.  Including a small amount of evaporated cane sugar in Gnarly Vegan allows us to increase calories and carbohydrates while making the product downright delicious.

1 Serving of Gnarly Vegan is 50g.  50g of powder is approximately 4 Tablespoons.

No, we didn’t forget yours. We’ve come to the hard decisions to ditch our scoops for the sake of Mother Nature.

Losing the scoops will save an estimated 28,000lbs (that’s a Freight Ship with Rocky Balboa as the Captain) of plastic per year. It’s a no brainer for our beloved Earth.

Now don’t just start pouring powder into your drinks willy-nilly. Have a regular spoon laying around? Good. Here’s the kitchen equivalent:

2 scoops with 10-12 oz of liquid, or 1/3 cup (50 grams) with 10-12 oz of liquid.

Your Vegan Protein Starter Kit includes a full-size bag of Gnarly Vegan Plant Protein, 5 Hydrate stick packs in mixed flavors, a Gnarly Stowe water bottle, and a $20 digital gift card to spend on anything else in the Gnarly lineup.
