Pea Protein

Providing nine essential amino acids, pea protein has exceptional levels of the amino acids lysine and arginine. Lysine is the precursor of carnitine which converts fatty acids into energy and helps control cholesterol levels. Lysine keeps the immune system in shape and plays a vital role in collagen formation which is necessary for healthy skin and bones. Pea Protein also provides iron and beneficial phenolic compounds with antioxidant properties.
