    Bean Protein Powder

    Is bean protein powder full worthy as whey and casein?

    Amino profile:

    Aminosyreprofil pr 100gram

    Ananine 4.4
    Arginine 9.1
    Aspartic Acid 12.5
    Cystine1.1
    Glutamic Acid 24.3
    Glycine4.1
    Histidine2.7
    Isoleucine4.7
    Leucine8.7
    Lysine7.7
    Methionine1.2
    Phenylalanine5.6
    Proline4.4
    Serine5.6
    Threonine3.9
    Tryptophan1.0
    Tyrosine3.9
    Valine 5,2


    I'm thinking of this, it's surprisingly cheaper then Whey in my country, and my body does not like whey very well.

    I see that its pretty poor in some EAAS like Leucine,Isoleucine,Methionine but its normall since its from beans.To be honest i would still buy Whey...

    if you were to mix it with some brown rice protein powder maybe, lol. If its dervied straight from beans, its not a complete protein....Try Gemma protein, its derived from yellow peas, complete protein, fast digesting, would be a good, cheap substitute for whey.

    Hell. I did mean to write pea protein :P
    It's actually gemma protein.

    And the amino profile is about the same as whey's, a little more in a couple, a little less in others. no biggie
