Vegan Recoverite®

We are always looking at possible ways to improve upon our already outstanding products, and when it came to Vegan Recoverite, we decided to have it contain not one, but two excellent protein sources—Pea Protein and Watermelon Seed Protein. Each serving still contains 10 grams of protein, but it is now divided equally among the two. Watermelon Seed Protein is a rich source of numerous amino acids, especially arginine, which is an amino acid that helps boost beneficial nitric oxide (NO) levels. Watermelon seed protein is also an excellent source of the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA)—leucine, isoleucine, and valine. Watermelon seed protein is high in B vitamins such as niacin, folate, thiamin, riboflavin, and pantothenic acid, and is an outstanding source of magnesium, as well as smaller amounts of other minerals. An easily digested protein, with a very mild-to-neutral taste, watermelon seed protein contains multiple health-benefitting bioactive compounds such as phenolic acids, flavonoids, and carotenoids, and it also possesses antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. For more about the benefits of watermelon seed protein, see https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlehtml/2025/fb/d4fb00335g

Recoverite contains whey protein isolate, while Vegan Recoverite contains organic pea protein. If you are adhering to a vegetarian/vegan diet, the latter is an excellent protein source. Considered the least allergenic of all protein sources, organic pea protein is also regarded as arguably the easiest plant protein to digest. Organic pea protein contains an excellent amino acid profile—it’s a rich source of the three branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine—and is gluten-free and lactose-free. The new Formula of Vegan Recoverite now also has watermelon seed protein.Watermelon seed protein is also an excellent source of the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA)—leucine, isoleucine, and valine. Watermelon seed protein is high in B vitamins such as niacin, folate, thiamin, riboflavin, and pantothenic acid, and is an outstanding source of magnesium, as well as smaller amounts of other minerals. That said, there is no better protein source than whey protein isolate when it comes to bioavailability and Essential Amino Acids (EAA) content, including the three branched-chain amino acids. There are a number of additional benefits attributed to whey protein isolate that no other protein source can offer. You can read more about this at Stay Strong and Stay Healthy.

Because whey protein isolate—the form we use in Recoverite and Whey Protein—most people who are lactose intolerant are able to consume whey isolate without issue. If you find either product to still cause issues, we recommend Vegan Recoverite and Vegan Protein.

Both Recoverite and Vegan Recoverite are most definitely suitable for diabetics. Shortly after exercise—ideally within the first 30 minutes after it has been completed—when the glycogen synthase enzyme is highly active and when insulin is needed to work with glycogen synthase to convert ingested carbohydrates to glycogen for storage in the muscles, a high-glycemic index (GI), insulin-releasing/spiking carbohydrate such as maltodextrin is highly desirable. Aside from shortly prior to, during, and immediately following exercise, we do not recommend consuming high-GI carbohydrates, including maltodextrin. Additional Note: Maltodextrin is the ideal choice for pre-diabetic and diabetics, as long as its use is limited to during exercise and immediately after. As just mentioned, at all other times we recommend consuming low-to-moderate glycemic index carbohydrates. It’s important to mention that a sizable number of our clients are Type I and Type II diabetics, including sponsored athlete Peter Van Rompaey, and they find our maltodextrin-containing products to be ideal for them.

Always start with about one-third of your water bottle/blender bottle filled with water. Adding water to dry powder will oftentimes cause clumping, but if you first start with water and then add the powder, this issue will cease to exist. Once you’ve added the powder to the water-containing bottle, put the lid on and shake vigorously. After that, add a bit more water, put the lid on, and repeat the process. Continue until your fuel bottle is full. Note: This is especially important when you’re making a multi-hour bottle of fuel; make it a little bit at a time—add some water, add powder, put the lid on, shake, repeat.
