Benefits

Reduce mental Fatigue

Struggling with that mental fog from sheer exhaustion or overwhelming stress? The plants and superfoods in this formula are especially suited to supporting mental alertness and improving our overall cognitive abilities [1].

Enhances physical performance

Looking for that boost of energy to get going in your day or to give you that extra kick for your workout? Panax ginseng and Cordyceps mushroom in this formula have long been used to support energy and improve physical performance [2] [3].

Increases cellular energy

Energy begins on the cellular level, and B vitamins are essential for the production of fuel and energy in every cell of our body [4]. Our quinoa sprouts, grown in vitamin B rich substrate, provide us with a complete food-based B complex.

Optimizes energy levels

The combination of quinoa, brown rice and coconut provide a complete and balanced plant-based protein for our daily energy requirements. The addition of therapeutic herbs and superfoods offer a deeply nourishing and energizing support to our brain, nervous system and muscles for that extra boost of energy we often need.

Help Build and Repair Muscles

Protein provides us with the building blocks to synthesize and repair body tissues, including muscles. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), which are found in good concentrations in this formula, are of particular importance for this. This plant-based protein powder is helpful if you are wanting to maintain and even build healthy muscle mass.

Protein Blend

Quinoa

Quinoa is an outstanding nutritional powerhouse. It has the highest protein content of all grains (although technically not a grain) and unlike most plant-based sources of protein, it provides a complete protein, which means it contains all the essential amino acids. Paired with Brown rice, we have a complete, well balanced protein for our everyday needs.

Brown Rice
Brown Rice

Botanica’s organic brown rice is treated with organic enzymes to support ease of digestion and to help break down some of the starch and fiber thereby naturally increasing the final protein content.

Coconut

Coconut was chosen for this formula in part to support a balanced protein profile, and largely for its yummy goodness that gives the powder a smooth and creamy texture.

Herbal Blend

Panax ginseng

Reduce mental fatigue

Enhance physical performance

500 mg

Panax ginseng, often referred to as the King of all herbs, is a wonderful adaptogen – a herb that helps us to better cope with the demands of stress. It is a stimulating and invigorating plant that is well recognized to improve mental alertness and physical performance [1].

Cordyceps

Immunomodulating

Rich source of antioxidants

500 mg

Cordyceps is an excellent mushroom for full body wellness. As an immunomodulator, it supports a healthy immune function, helping keep all the checks and balances in working order. It is also traditionally our star mushroom for energy and athletic performance [2]. It has shown great potential to increase immediate energy, support a healthy libido, and improve oxygen intake in the lungs [3]. Overall, it can be a wonderful mushroom to improve stamina.

Quinoa

Help with energy production

Helps metabolize nutrients

Sourced from 400 mg quinoa sprouts

Our quinoa sprouts are grown in vitamin B rich substrate to provide a complete food-based B complex. Our B vitamins are crucial for healthy metabolism of our carbohydrates, fats and proteins, helping us convert the food we eat into glucose for energy [4]. They are also essential for the production of fuel and energy in our cells [5].

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can this formula replace my herbal supplements for energy?

Yes, it contains therapeutic dosages and has been formulated with Naturopathic doctors. It is still always wise to follow up with a practitioner if needed.

Can this formula be taken if I’m on medication?

For the most part, yes, although it should be taken 2 hours away from your medications. Be cautious with Panax ginseng if on anti-depressants or digoxin.

Can I take this formula for an extended period of time?

Yes, these are superfood nutrients and herbs that have been used traditionally for centuries and have a tonifying effect on the body. Having said that, it is always a good idea to take breaks on and off with any herbal protocols; they tend to be most effective that way.

Can I take this formula every day?

Yes, absolutely.

Are all of the ingredients organic?

Yes, they are all certified organic, including the organic vanilla flavour and monk fruit extract for that delicious flavour.

Can this perfect protein elevated powder be used for children?

This formula has therapeutic levels of herbs in it, so it is meant for people 12 years and up, unless advised by a practitioner. The Perfect Protein is different and can be used for kids of all ages, since it is 100% whole food. A child’s dosage is always divided based on their weight. The adult dosage is based on 150 lb person, so you would divide the dose depending on the child’s weight.

Can I cook with this formula?

Although it would make a lovely protein-rich substitute for flour in several types of recipes, we do not generally recommend heating this powder as you risk losing some of the B vitamins that tend to be sensitive to heat. If you are looking for a protein formula for baking, Perfect Protein is a great alternative.
