@raef Thank you. People aren't looking at the big picture, imo. Proteins made by fermentation have the potential to destroy the meat and dairy industry. It's that simple. I understand people are afraid of new tech, but this is truly an important development. We are never going to get 100% of...

@ellen678 You are welcome! Glad it's helpful.

@iowakid8401 lol this is the best compliment. Thank you.

@konsacz Yeah, I wonder that too. Some people need empathy, imo. But maybe that's asking a lot.

@konsacz I hear you. I have diabetics in my family. In another sub I mod someone started chastising the vegans there who used artificial sweeteners and I thought to myself, I would never, ever tell someone with diabetes or other blood sugar issue that they their diet is bad because they use...

@tripp1523 Vegan EAAs are available if you are worried about this.There are at least 4 brands that I can think of. Right now I take Naked Nutrition EAAs. So easy.

@prettythings I just got it the other day. It's has a nice flavor (like cashews, basically) and mixes pretty well with the milk. It's a little expensive though for the amount of protein in it, so I'm trying to figure out way to use it in small quantities. Maybe for sauces. Not sure yet.

@prettythings Thank you for experimenting with this. I was looking for a replacement also, but didn't get around to trying. PB2 makes a cashew powder (60 cal/ 4 P per 2 T) that is tasty and might thicken your drink? It's a shame Silk took the protein milk off the market. Right now I use vegan...

@dawn16 There are vegan and non-vegan BCAAs. Just as you would get BCAAs in a vegan diet you can get them in a vegan supplement. Most vegan protein powders already have BCAAs in them, but OP was asking specifically about Leucine. Vegan BCAA example...

@theone111 You could also take a BCAA or leucine supplement.

@techo There's a slow release iron supp that has fewer GI effects. I think it's called "Slow Fe" also there are other brands.

@christopherinla not me.

@monte The American College of Sports Medicine recommends .5 to .8 grams of protein per lb of body weight for athletes. https://www.acsm.org/docs/default-source/files-for-resource-library/protein-intake-for-optimal-muscle-maintenance.pdf
