Full Description and Detailed Information
Raw Pea Protein:
A high fiber, low calorie, nutrient dense vegetarian SUPERFOOD,
Peas are also a remarkable source of plant-based proteins and amino acids.
Protein from peas satisfies all FAO essential amino acid requirements. The
amino acids found in peas include Lysine, Arginine, Glutamine, Leucine,
Isoleucine & Valine (Branched Chain Amino Acids – BCAAs)
- Aid in
muscle tissue maintenance*
- Comparable
to egg and milk proteins*
- BCAAs
are higher in pea protein than any other vegetable protein*
- Helps
restore nitrogen balance after intense physiological stress*
- Increases
muscle mass while reducing body fat during intense exercise*
- Improves
vasodilation and promotes a healthy heart*
- Assists
in maintaining lean body mass*
- Facilitates
calcium absorption (promoting healthy bone development in children)*
- Low in
sulfur proteins (sulfur proteins speed up the aging process)*
- Increases
metabolism and satiety (helping you to feel “full”)*
- Natural
tonic for preventing and treating high blood pressure*
- Promotes
healthy kidney function*
*The proteins naturally present in peas exist in an inactive
state and must be activated by special enzymes to become bio-available. Simply
consuming peas will not provide the same health benefits as using this purified
pea protein extract.
Raw Cranberry Protein:
Cranberry protein is unique in that it is the only 100%
plant protein that contains 25% protein, including all essential amino acids.
Cranberry protein is extracted using a cold-pressed technology that preserves
natural balances and naturally occurring fatty acids, which increases the
absorption of the other nutrients.
- Powerful
detoxifier and diuretic (flushes out the kidneys)*
- Treats
bladder, kidney and urinary problems*
- Boosts
immune system, protecting against influenza and the common cold*
- Increases
“good” cholesterol (HDL) and reduces “bad” cholesterol (LDL)*
- Improves
circulation and reduces risk of heart disease*
- Helps
to relieve stress & depression*
- Treats
skin conditions such as: acne, dermatitis, psoriasis, burns & wounds*
- Also
considered one of the best remedies for REDUCING CELLULITE*
Raw Hemp Protein:
Hempseed is a complete protein source and the only food
capable of sustaining life in the absence of other foods.
- Whole
food source*
- Considered
a “complete” protein, contains all eight essential amino acids*
- Contains
Edestin – a plant protein only found in hemp, similar to proteins found in
the human body, Promotes DNA & cellular growth*
- High
concentrations of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in ideal 1:3 ratio*
- Helps
stabilize blood sugar*
- Rich
in fiber*
- Absorbed
faster than any other protein*
- Easy
to digest due to its lack of oligosaccharides and trypsin inhibitors*
- Promotes
healthy liver function*
- Reduces
the risk of heart disease*
- Bolsters
the immune system and protects against chronic disease*
- Aids
in digestion*
- Contains
gamma-linolenic acid – good fat, needed for skin, hair, eyes, nails, and
cells in general*
- Good
source of iron, calcium, and a variety of other nutrients, some of which
include B vitamins, magnesium and vitamin E*
Coconut MCTs:
Coconuts contain essential fatty acids in a unique structure
that allows the fat to be burned as energy rather than stored as body fat. The
fat in coconuts is composed of MCTs or medium chain triglycerides.
- MCTs
require less energy and fewer enzymes to break down for digestion*
- Digested
and absorbed quickly*
- Used
to treat digestive or metabolic conditions*
- Improve
the absorption of vitamins and minerals*
- Improves
general well-being*
- Athletes
use MCTs to improve performance and control weight*
- Improves
mental clarity*
- Increases
lean body mass/ decreases body fat*
- Helps
alleviate candida*
- Abundant
source of lauric acid (fortifies the immune system to fight disease)*
- Speeds
healing and recovery from illness and injury*
Fenugreek:
Plant in the family Fabaceae, Fenugreek is used both as an
herb (the leaves) and as a spice (the seed). The leaves and sprouts are also
eaten as vegetables. Fenugreek seeds are a rich source of the polysaccharide
galactomannan. They are also a source of saponins. Other bioactive constituents
of fenugreek include mucilage, volatile oils, and alkaloids.
- Lowering
Blood Sugar: supplements containing fenugreek are thought to be effective
at lowering blood sugar levels. How fenugreek is able to lower blood
glucose levels is not yet understood*
- Lowering
Cholesterol: This effect is thought to be due to the presence of chemicals
called steroidal saponins, which prevent cholesterol from being absorbed
into the bloodstream*
- Relieving
Constipation – rich in fiber*
- In
Traditional Chinese Medicine under the name Hu Lu Ba, considered to warm
and tonify kidneys, dispersing cold and alleviating pain*
Konjac:
Soluble fibers such as Konjac root fibers offer many
health-promoting benefits through their ability to form a soft gel with water.
- Help
lower blood cholesterol*
- Slow
glucose absorption*
- Lowers
the Glycemic index*
- Promotes
regular bowel movements*
- Most
viscous of all known dietary fibers*
- May
promote weight loss in obese adults even in the absence of a
calorie-restricted diet*
- Creates
a feeling of satiety or fullness through its water-binding effects*
- By
creating a thick gel, glucomannan delays gastric emptying and slows the
release of sugar into the bloodstream, which helps to lower levels of
insulin and blood glucose*
- Improves
blood-lipid profiles and can lower systolic blood pressure*
- Helps
move waste products out of the body, discouraging the growth of cancer or
other illnesses*
Leucine:
Having appropriate Muscularity is important to the health
and longevity of humans and animals. Protein is essential to maintain tissue,
organ, and muscle fitness. One particular protein or amino acid seems to be the
star player in preserving muscle tissue. That amino acid is Leucine.
- Luecine
helps preserve existing muscle mass and stimulate the growth of new muscle
cells
- Muscles
rich in leucine are less susceptible to damage and require less time to
recover from injury
- Prevents
muscle wasting
- Prevents
the loss of bone density, energy, strength, and fitness
- Contributes
to increased weight loss
- Lowers
appetite, controlling how the brain regulates metabolism and the feeling
of hunger
- Combines
with isoleucine and valine to protect and provide fuel to the muscles,
increase endurance levels, and boost energy
- Aids
in maintaining blood sugar levels
- Increases
growth hormone production
Based on nitrogen-balance measurements, the requirement for
leucine to maintain body protein is 1-3 grams daily. To optimize the anabolic
pathway, it has been estimated that the leucine requirement should be about 8g
– 16g daily.
3 Ounces of Warrior Blend has the Leucine content of 12
eggs!”-sunwarrior.com
Was that enough information for you? Really, I had no idea that you could get
protein from plants the way Sunwarrior has done it…I mean, I knew they had
protein, but wow…what a great alternative to whey and egg protein! For someone like me, who is battling embracing
food intolerances or allergies, this is a great way to add some flavor and
protein to smoothies, puddings, etc.
I like the Warrior Blends of protein the best because it
contains no grains, but now that I have found I can eat grains (thanks to the help of a wonderful nutritional therapy practitioner), I may just have to try some of their other blends. They have Classic
Protein, Super Greens, and other great supplements provided over at www.sunwarrior.com
Sunwarrior also sent me a few other samples to try of
products I had never heard of, Liquid Light and Immune Shield. I am familiar with Silver and its suggested
benefits, but I had never seen a product that contained so many minerals as the
Liquid Light. It was my sister, H, who
pointed out that we get those minerals everyday through our food, but we don’t
examine/pick apart/concentrate each mineral in the way that the Liquid Light
does. I imagine all these minerals can go a long way in helping fill the gaps
in our daily nutrition. Also, the fact
that it is a clear liquid (it looks like water) makes it easy to blend into
everyday food.
Because I am still learning about this product, I thought it
be best to provide some more information from the website, www.sunwarrior.com:
“What is the difference between Liquid Light & Immune
Shield?
Liquid Light is a plant-based fulvic acid mineral
complex created by nature and cold process extracted into a liquid solution. Immune
Shield is a natural fulvic acid mineral complex fortified with silver ions.
The silver ions are complexed inside the fulvic acid molecule for maximum
protection and performance.
Liquid Light
Liquid Light is what we like to call "Mineralized Solar
Energy". The minerals are sunlight captured by healthy plant life with a
microbial production of Fulvic Complex, extracted from ancient undisturbed
plant deposit using pure cold water.
Liquid Light Provides:
- Powerful
polyelectrolytes produced by nature*
- Over
72 trace minerals and elements complexed with Fulvic Acid*
- Improved
absorption and assimilation of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other
nutrients*
- Enhanced
energy and endurance*
Suggested Use: Take one
capful once a day or as needed. May
be taken by itself, with water or juice.
Store unopened package out of direct light
and away from heat.

My favorite way to use Sunwarrior protein, is by
first, blend blueberries, banana, and pineapple, and your choice of protein
flavor, blend it up in the Ninja blender, and freeze the batter. The next day I can pull it out in the morning
and by lunch, it is a lovely, fruit based ice cream with healthy protein
inside. It was the perfect filler for a
recent long road trip. There was no refrigeration necessary and it
tasted great!
