Laird Superfood is introducing a brand-new RENEW Plant-Based Protein powder to its portfolio and it shares 19 grams of plant-based protein plus nine naturally occurring essential amino acids. According to Paul Hodge, CEO and co-founder of Laird Superfood, "We set out to create an effective plant-based protein powder that is easier on the digestive system than the ones currently in the market. At the same time, we wanted to develop a plant-based protein powder that has all nine essential aminos that our bodies don't produce."
The plant-based protein powder is made from a blend of seed proteins and functional mushrooms, and it contains no rice or pea protein, or preservatives. The product is packed with a plant-based protein from sources like hemp seeds, pumpkin and sacha inchi seeds.
