Symbol Nutrition Raw Yellow Pea Protein is a natural plant-based protein that is derived from yellow peas, also known as split peas. Peas are a member of the legume family, which includes many well-known sources of vegetable protein. This protein is highly soluble and easy to digest. The process used for concentrating pea protein is water based, making the end product very "natural." This is a perfect protein for vegetarians and vegans who can't get their protein from animal products. It has the ability to supply the nine essential amino acids that cannot be naturally produced by the human body.
Pea has come out as a powerhouse of protein and is quickly rising up the ranks as it appears in more and more supplements designed to increase endurance, boost energy, build muscle, and help people lose weight. Protein is an important nutrient, but most of our sources aren’t always the best. Meat and eggs come with saturated fats, extra calories, and cholesterol, not to mention they’re pretty hard on the kidneys.
Did you know?
About 90% of pea is protein, and quality protein at that, rich in essential amino acids.
The proteins in this legume are 95–98% digestible, allowing for maximized absorption. This means the body gets access to them quickly and can put them to use right away where they are needed most.
Peas also contain essential amino acids that are often lacking in other vegetables, like lysine. Each essential amino acid cannot be created by the body and must come from the foods we eat.
Unlike soy, whey, milk, and cheese, pea is not an allergen and allergic reactions to it are extremely rare. Pea protein powder also doesn’t contain gluten like many grains and no lactose.
Protein is essential in building strong bones, muscles, and healthy tissue. It also goes into a multitude of enzymes the body uses to produce energy, transport nutrients, carry oxygen, and complete thousands of other tasks.
The rich amino acids in pea are perfect for repairing and rebuilding muscle. After exercise the muscle tissue is torn from the workout and needs an immediate supply of the right amino acids to repair these tears and layer extra muscle fiber over the top.
Peas help regulate appetite and aid in weight loss. Pea protein is a low calorie food without the unhealthy fats found in meat and animal proteins.
The protein from peas, especially yellow peas, has been shown to lower cholesterol and blood pressure while being gentle on the kidneys. It may actually prevent kidney problems.
