The Apollon Nutrition Difference
Plant-based (vegan) protein powders have become a hot commodity over the past few years. As a result, there has been a flood of vegan protein powders entering the market, and whenever this happens, quality is traded for quantity. The end result is an abundance of options with most offering inferior quality to consumers.
Seeing a market niche sorely in need of an effective solution, we committed to crafting a vegan protein powder that could never be matched, let alone surpassed. We invested hundreds of hours into sourcing every possible material and vetting each one to engineer the superior plant-based protein powder on the market.
The result was 50/50 Formula-V.
Instead of using cheaper, lower quality protein sources like soy or rice protein, we invested in complete protein sources like pea and chickpea which deliver a superior amino acid profile packed for better protein synthesis, muscle recovery, and growth.
But, we didn’t stop there.
Velositol: The Protein Potentiator
Plant protein is often considered a “suboptimal” source of protein since the vast majority of plant foods are an “incomplete” protein, meaning they are deficient in one or more essential amino acids. While we have formulated 50/50 Formula-V to be a high-quality, complete protein source, we also realize the stigma around vegan protein powders among the masses and included added “insurance” to further assuage the concerns and worries of consumers.
That’s why we also included a full 2 grams of the patented protein potentiator Velositol®. This complex of amylopectin and chromium has been shown to double the power of protein as well as enhance performance during resistance training.[1,2]
Added Nutrition Support in TruServ®
Let’s not beat around the bush, WAY too many of us don’t get enough plant foods in the diet, especially those of the dark green variety -- the same foods revered by many as “superfoods.”
In yet another way to differentiate and elevate 50/50 Formula-V above the competition, we included a full 2 grams of TruServ organic greens.
How is TruServ different from every other “greens blend” on the market?
We’re glad you asked…
Unlike every other greens blend which provides an unknown and unproven (“insignificant”) amount of actual greens, 2 grams of TruServ Organic Greens Blend provides the equivalent of a full serving of veggies![4]
So, not only are you getting a robust dose of complete protein (20 grams) in every serving of 50/50 Formula-V, you’re also getting added antioxidant and micronutrient support.
Quite simply, 50/50 Formula-V is the premier plant-based protein powder on the market.
Why Use Vegan Protein Powder?
Many individuals are looking for ways to reduce their consumption of animal products or eliminate them entirely. At the same time, those adopting a more plant-focused diet may have trouble consuming enough quality protein every day, thereby limiting his/her muscle recovery, growth, and results.
50/50 Formula-V offers an effective and affordable option to help meet your nutritional requirements.
Even those who aren’t strictly focused on eating plant-based or vegan diets can benefit from 50/50 Formula-V. It can provide a great alternative to whey protein or serve as an option for those who are lactose intolerant.
Great for Weight Loss, Too!
Consuming enough protein is essential during a diet as it helps to fill you up and spare lean muscle tissue. 50/50 Formula-V contains very low amounts of carbohydrates and fat making it an ideal protein choice if you are on a low-carb diet or trying to increase your protein intake while limiting your overall calorie intake.
How to Use 50/50 Formula-V
50/50 Formula-V is easy to mix with water or plant-based milk, and it can also be added to protein shakes or yogurt for the perfect anytime snack/meal throughout the day or even before bed to promote muscle repair and lean muscle growth.
It can also be paired with Apollon Nutrition’s Cluster Bomb immediately post-workout to fuel muscle recovery, glycogen replenishment, and growth.
