The differences between proteins
Life Pro offers two lines of vegan-friendly protein: Isolate Vegan Creamy and Vegan Protein. In the following post, we will explain the properties and differences between each one, as well as provide recommendations on which one to choose. Protein is an essential nutrient in the diet of everyone who engages in physical activity, as well as for those looking to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Although the vast majority of protein supplements are made from milk, there is a variety suitable for vegans and vegetarians, which is produced from different plant-based sources.
Supplements made with plant-based protein sources are an excellent option for vegetarian and vegan athletes or simply for those committed to their diet.
What is Life Pro Isolate Vegan Creamy?
Life Pro Isolate Vegan Creamy is a protein supplement made with emulsified soy protein isolate. Isolate Vegan Creamy features the ISP TW900 patent.
Features:
- It contains only one source of protein: soy. Unlike other types of supplements, it has not been mixed or combined with any other source.
- It has a very creamy texture, similar to pudding.
- It is ideal for preparing recipes.
- Protein concentration varies between 77% and 87%, depending on the flavor chosen.
Raw material:
As mentioned in the previous section, Isolate Vegan Creamy is made with ISP TW900 emulsified soy protein isolate.
The type of soy used in Life Pro Isolate Vegan Creamy is emulsified soy. As a result, when prepared, it acquires a creamy texture, making it ideal for use in recipes. It does not contain any type of thickener; this characteristic is inherent to the raw material.

What is Life Pro Vegan Protein?
Life Pro Vegan Protein is made by combining two different protein sources: pea protein and rice protein. Both protein sources come from organic farming.
Features:
- It has a high protein concentration of 71%, 76% or 77%, depending on the flavor chosen.
- It is low in fat and carbohydrates.
- It is sweetened with sucralose.
- It does not contain soy.
- Lighter texture than the previous one. Ideal for shakes.
The benefits of combining pea and rice protein:
- The aim of combining these two protein sources is to achieve a complete amino acid profile.
- Some plant-based protein sources lack all the essential amino acids in their composition.
