Vega Performance Protein + Recovery Creamy Chocolate

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Vega Performance Protein + Recovery Creamy Chocolate scores 12/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Vega Performance Protein + Recovery Creamy Chocolate lists 7 ingredients, starting with Organic Brown Rice Protein, Creatine Monohydrate, Sunflower Oil Powdered Creamer, Sunflower Oil and Maltodextrin. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 12/100 Vega Performance Protein + Recovery Creamy Chocolate scores worse than most protein powders we have scored. A higher-scoring option in protein powders is VEGA Pea Protein Powder Chocolate at 100/100.
