FAQs

Why is the Just Ingredients Protein Powder a better option?

The protein comes from 4 different protein sources: 100% super high quality grass fed whey, pea protein, chia seeds, and collagen. There is a lot less whey compared to normal protein powders so it may be easier on the stomach than other protein powders!

What are the 4 sources of protein in the Just Ingredients Protein Powder?
There are 4 sources of protein are: chia seed protein, pea protein, collagen, and whey protein. They all have very similar amounts in the protein powder. Each is around 4-5 grams.

Will the Just Ingredients Protein Powder upset my stomach if I can't handle whey very well?
A lot of proteins use whey as the only protein source and it tends to upset peoples digestion. That’s why we used 4 different proteins in smaller amounts. We also use non-denatured whey which contains no casein and very little lactose, so many people who are sensitive to whey have reported that they are able to enjoy the Just Ingredients Protein Powder!

What is the collagen source in the Just Ingredients Protein Powder?
It comes from organic bovine collagen from the bones and connective tissue.

Is the stevia in the Just Ingredients Protein Powder processed? What is your source?
No. Processed stevia goes through a 42 step process, and can cause gut issues for some. We use straight stevia leaf crushed up which is completely different. It is from a wholesale company that provides to manufactures only. All of our ingredients are sourced that way!

Does the Just Ingredients Protein Powder contain heavy metals?
All heavy metal testing for the Just Ingredients Protein Powder came in way below Prop 65 levels and most showed zero.

How does the Just Ingredients Protein Powder rate in terms of FODMAP?
The Just Ingredients Protein Powder does contain dairy which is high fodmap, but so many people with lactose issues have reported that this protein does not upset their stomach!

What is the shelf life of the Just Ingredients Protein Powder?
2 years but it also freezes well. There are no preservatives so it is best if it is stored in the house rather than a hot garage.

Is this protein powder a meal replacement?
It’s just a protein powder and not meant to be a meal replacement. Protein shakes lack the variety of vitamins and minerals required to make them a valuable food source. Protein shakes supplement the amino acid intake of a person.

What is the best time of the day to consume protein powder?
The protein is for anytime if you want a protein-packed snack! Many people drink protein before or after their workout, or right before going to sleep.

Who should use protein powder?
Protein powder is great for those that have a hard time getting enough protein in during a day. Protein, fat, and carbs are the 3 macronutrients our body needs. Some don’t get enough protein in each day and a protein powder supplement can help. Do you know how much protein you eat per day?

COA + Heavy Metal Testing

Protein powders have the potential to contain harmful heavy metals due to the farming practices used to produce the ingredients. These practices include the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, as well as low-quality soil, which can lead to heavy metal contamination. Big brands often don't check for these substances to save money and this can impact people's health.

We created protein powders that are healthier, more nourishing, and safer than other brands because we use high-quality ingredients and test them thoroughly. We test our final product to make sure it meets national safety standards and our company standards. This includes testing for heavy metals and other harmful substances, so that every bag of protein powder we produce is safe to use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most powders rely on whey alone, which gives you one amino acid profile and tends to upset digestion in larger doses. We use four real food sources in smaller amounts for a fuller amino acid range that's easier on your stomach. Whey and pea support muscle, chia adds fiber, and collagen supports skin, joints, and bones.

Four to five real food sources, depending on the flavor: grass-fed whey, pea, pumpkin seed, chia seed, and collagen. We blend them on purpose, because no single protein covers everything. Together they give a more complete amino acid profile than one source could alone.

It's far less likely to. Most powders use only whey, and a big dose of whey alone is what bothers most people. We use four to five proteins in smaller amounts, plus non-denatured whey with no casein and very little lactose, so even whey-sensitive people tend to do well.

Barely. We use stevia leaf crushed straight from the plant, sourced through a manufacturer-only wholesaler. That skips the heavy processing most stevia goes through, and everything we use is sourced the same way.

So Flexible

"I live the Just Plain protein powder. Not only for its taste but also love it for how flexible it is. I can add it to so many things."

— Duxon (5/5)

Definitely not "plain"

"Bought the "Just Plain" flavor so that I could mix it into literally any liquid without added taste. Unfortunately, there are 3 different sweeteners used: monk fruit, stevia, and vanilla. If you're looking for actual unflavored protein powder, this isn't it. Just Ingredients needs to change the name of this flavor or take out the sweeteners (the latter, please). They also "don't recommend" mixing it into milk or water. It's completely fine in either because it's so sweet. I won't buy this again since it isn't plain."

— D. M. (3/5)

Q&A

Hi! I tried the chocolate protein powder and it was too sweet, and noticed all of your protein powders have monk fruit. Any chance you will make one without a sweetener? I would love to support you!
Great question! At this time, all our proteins contain monk fruit, but we will be sure to pass on the feedback!
How much collagen is in one serving of this protein powder?
Great question! At Just Ingredients, we value transparency, though some details are proprietary. Since our Protein Powder isn’t primarily a collagen supplement, we typically don’t disclose the exact amount of collagen. However, our Protein Powders contain 4-5 protein sources: chia seed protein, pumpkin seed protein, pea protein, collagen, and whey protein, with each in fairly balanced proportions. While we’re not able to share the exact amount of collagen in our protein due to it being proprietary, we can let you know that it’s a smaller amount compared to our Collagen Peptides, which contain 10g (10,000mg) of collagen per serving. If you’re looking to ensure you're getting a more targeted or consistent collagen intake daily, we’d recommend adding our Collagen Peptides to your routine.
Does this protein powder mix well into yogurt?
Great question! We have used our Protein Powder in some yogurt and we think it mixes in great!
Is the protein powder safe to drink while pregnant?
Hi Margret! For pregnancy and breastfeeding, we always recommend consulting with your doctor to determine what is best for your individual needs. Many of our ingredients are commonly found in prenatal vitamins or are made from real food sources. For instance, our Protein Powders are packed with nourishing, whole food ingredients that can support healthy growth. It's also generally recommended to increase protein intake while breastfeeding, and using protein powder can be a convenient way to support both your body and your baby. However, your doctor can offer specific guidance based on your health needs.
Is this safe for all ages, even littles? I put it in pancake batter and am wondering if my 1 year old should eat it.
Our protein is made with real food ingredients that can help nourish the body! They could even be used during pregnancy! Of course, we always recommend first consulting with your doctor. :)
