Organic Whey Protein Banana & Lucuma
We've only used real bananas and a small amount of organic lucuma fruit, for a super healthy banana blend that surprisingly doesn't have a strong taste of banana, but in fact rather more malty and with subtle caramel notes. We've crammed the equivalent of one medium banana into each serving, so you're getting 15.88% of your recommended daily intake of Potassium and also a healthy amount of unprocessed carbohydrates too. This is perfect if you're looking to increase your carb intake, or if you just aren't on a carb-restricted diet..

Serving guidance
The easiest way to use our organic whey protein is to mix 37.5g with 300ml of water or milk (dairy or plant based) vigorously in a shaker for 30 seconds, or for 10 seconds in a blender.
37.5g is equivalent to approximately 90ml, which is equal to 0.38 cup, 5 tablespoons, 3 scoops, or of course you can also weigh on a set of kitchen scales for the best accuracy. Many people only have half a serving (18.8g or 45ml) as they don't need a lot of extra protein in their diet, so feel free to use less if this sounds like you.
Each 37.5g serving of contains 16.16g of protein, 41.9g of carbs and 2.4g of fat.
