"YES" OR "NO" Protein Powders














Why are we buying protein powders? Because it's easy right? How easy is it to make  your own without preservatives, fillers, and sugars?


Turns out...... Super Easy!





Powdered milk or dried milk is manufactured dairy product made by evaporating milk to dryness...... 

Wow. ( Does NOT sound HEALTHY)

Whey is the watery part of milk that remains after the formation of curds.
Hummm. ( Why not use yogurt or kefir for more benefits?)

Vegan "Protein Powders" are made up of nuts. seeds, hemp, quinoa, chick peas, and yellow peas.

Stop.... with the powders people! It's super easy and healthier to make your own "Protein" or Greens" Powders! AND CHEAPER!
