Protein Powder

Protein powders are sources of protein crushed into a fine powder. They are often flavoured and rich in amino acids to help build muscle. There are two different types of protein powder: plant-based and dairy-based. Plant-based includes hemp, chia, pumpkin and pea protein. The second type is whey powder, which is a by-product of cheese.
