Which Vegan protein powder do you recommend please?
Question: Which Vegan protein powder do you recommend please? I use unsweetened oat milk and Oatly Greek style yoghurt. Both have little protein. Thank you.
Answer: If your protein intake is a bit low, a plant-based protein powder can help top it up. When choosing one, aim for around 15–20g of protein per portion and opt for products low in added sugar, with minimal ingredients—avoiding sweeteners, fillers, or unnecessary thickeners.
We’ve put together a shopping suggestions post with four great plant-based protein powder options – you can find it here: https://www.wearewla.com/shopping-suggestions
