What sets 5 Plant Protein apart

A complete and high-performing amino acid profile
Unlike many single-source plant proteins that fall short on certain essential amino acids, 5 Plant Protein delivers a complete spectrum with standout levels of:

  • Leucine, valine, and isoleucine (BCAAs) — crucial for muscle recovery and protein synthesis

  • Lysine — often lacking in plant proteins, but well-represented here

  • Arginine — supports healthy circulation and nitric oxide production

  • Glutamic and aspartic acid — key players in energy metabolism and digestive support

Naturally lower in methionine — with a potential longevity benefit
Emerging research suggests that diets lower in methionine may support healthy aging and longevity by reducing oxidative stress and promoting better metabolic health. 5 Plant Protein offers a naturally lower methionine content compared to animal proteins—while still delivering enough to meet daily needs when consumed as part of a balanced diet.

This makes our 5 Plant Protein a smart choice for active lifestyles, plant-based diets, or anyone seeking a clean, complete, and longevity-conscious source of protein.
