Promond® - 50% water-soluble almond protein from India, 100% natural and vegan

Promond™ is water extract) with a complete array of amino acids, including high levels of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). Although its amino acid profile is similar to whey and pea protein, is particularly high in glutamate, arginine, aspartate, and phenylalanine.
Those concerned about almonds grown in California because of heavy water use in drought conditions won’t have to worry, Promond™ is made from almonds sourced in northern India.
Almonds (Prunus amygdalus) are incredibly popular nuts worldwide, which belong to species related to cherries and plums, and are native to Middle East and South Asia. These highly nutritious and extremely healthy nuts are a rich source of proteins, dietary fiber, and other micronutrients. Sabinsa’s Promond™ is a 100% natural and vegan protein obtained from almonds and standardized to contain not less than 50% protein. This off-white to cream, free-flowing powder has good taste compared to other protein powders. It is having a complete array of amino acids, including high levels of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). In recent years, extensive research on almonds has proved that this versatile nutrient food exerts an array of health benefits, including healthy heart support [maintaining healthy cholesterol levels (Wien et al., 2010; Berryman et al., 2015), reduced risk of coronary artery diseases (Jenkins, 2002 2006; Hu et al., 1998) and oxidative stress (Li et al., 2007)], healthy blood sugar levels (Jenkins et al., 2006) and healthy weight management, and related complications (Wein et al., 2003; Berryman et al., 2015; Abazarfard et al., 2014).

Proteins - Amino acids and BCAA

More than 10 000 proteins are found from organs to muscles and tissues to bones, skin and hair. Protein is made up of amino acids  that are attached to one another in long chains. There are 20 different kinds of amino acids, and the sequence in which the different amino acids are arranged helps determine the role of that particular protein.
  • Amino acid deficiency can result in decreased immunity, digestive problems, depression, fertility issues, lower mental alertness, slowed growth in children, and many other health issues
Branched-chain (BCAA) refers to the chemical structure of BCAAs, which are found in protein-rich foods such as eggs, meat and dairy products. They are also a popular dietary supplement sold primarily in powder form, for various needs such as :
  • Muscle : BCAAs play an important role in building muscle. However, muscles require all the essential amino acids for the best results.
  • DOMS : Supplementing with BCAAs may decrease muscle soreness by reducing damage in exercised muscles.
  • Fatigue : BCAAs may be useful in decreasing exercise-induced fatigue, but they are unlikely to improve exercise performance.
