SUN WARRIOR RICE PROTEIN

Finally a protein powder that is organic, tastes great,  and will not cause nausea and have you running to the bathroom with the runs!

Over the last couple years, Mike has always passed along sound nutritional advice that has positively affected my performance.  Recently, I mentioned that I was having trouble finding a protein powder I was happy with.  Mike recommended Sun Warrior Protein and I have been very satisfied with the results.  It’s a high quality supplement with a good amino acid profile that doesn’t produce many of the negative side effects (ex. bloating) associated with most protein powders.”--Ken Blackburn Director of Operations for the IKFF www.extremeathletictraining.com

 

1.   taste (does chocolate actually taste like chocolate?),

2.   amino acid and nutrition profile (what can it do for my body?)

3.   value for dollar spent (is the container half empty when I get it?)

4.   consistency (can it actually mix in a shaky cup?)

5.   drinkable factor (does it cause bloating; leave you feeling blah after drinking?)

When Mike introduced me to Sun Warrior Protein eight months ago, I didn't have very high hopes as I've been so disappointed by what's out there. Sun Warrior has not only exceeded my expectations, my body has really responded to it.  When I first received it,  I drank 4 shakes because it tastes so good!  I still can't believe this is a protein powder and, is actually good for me (I have made cookies and other things with it and even my friends can't tell the difference).  Combined with the scientific proof that plant-based proteins are better for your skin and aging:  this one's a no-brainier.   Both me and my wallet are very grateful that the quest for the perfect protein powder is finally over. --Joyti Bharaj 

After suddenly developing an allergic response to all of the traditional protein powders on the market I was left in need of a protein powder that was compatible with my body’s composition. The traditional whey, soy and casein protein powders produced intolerable levels of inflammation, bloating and nausea. As an educated individual with a Masters Degree I did a great deal of research but could not find anything that worked. My training had to cease and at 6’1 my bodyweight plummeted to 196lbs due in part to the deterioration of muscle mass. This was until Mike Mahler recommended I try the plant based organic Sun Warrior Rice Protein. Sun Warrior Rice Protein produced no negative side effects and it tastes better than any protein powder I ever had. It is easy to mix and goes great with all types of juices and fruit or just about anything for that matter. I recommend this product to all my friends. Thanks to Mike my training has resumed and I am now back to a solid 270lbs. Mike is a genius!”--Shawn A. Nickens, MSSA-Cleveland, OH

Since I eat for function much of the time, I have learned to overlook grittiness, questionable taste, and other issues with non-soy and non-animal protein powders.  Thanks to Sun Warrior, I don't have to do that any more.  It mixes well, tastes great without having to add sweetener, and is quite versatile.  Perhaps more importantly, it is very digestible.  I find that many foods I eat need to be fermented first to get the benefit I'm seeking. This is an added bonus to Sun Warrior, as it is the first fermented plant-based protein powder I've come across.  Lastly, I can recommend it with confidence.  Due to my career, I'm in constant contact with folks who are at the very least concerned with what they eat, but also often have the added degree of difficulty of being so while having food intolerances, allergies, or non-mainstream preferences. Everyone I've referred to Sun Warrior has agreed that it is worth every penny.--Heather Morgan 

Over the last few years I have tried every name brand protein powder on the market and most of the results were bloating, gas, water retention, and an overall bubbly look.  After swearing off protein powders and supplements I tried just getting all the nutrition I needed from food, but there aren’t enough hours in the day that a skinny guy like me needs to eat enough to maintain plus grow lean muscle.  I have had great results with all the information from Mike’s website, and after trying Sun Warrior I am very happy with the results.  Sun Warrior mixes easily tastes great alone or with almond butter, bananas, blueberries, hemp seed or anything else you want to mix in with it.   There is no bloated feeling, it’s great for pre or post workout meal replacement and has helped me pack on lean, hard muscle.  Price wise it is very comparable to any name brand protein supplement product is healthier for you and will give you better results no matter what your goals are!--Alex Goetzfried 

I'm vegan and training for an Ironman Triathlon, in the gym, or out on tour constantly. Sun Warrior Raw Protein Powder is an amazing whole food product that helps kick my workouts into overdrive and makes sure I never hit that wall called fatigue. Oh, and it tastes great!!!--John Joseph - lead singer Cro-Mags/Bloodclot and author of The Evolution Of A Cro-Magnon

Why I Use And Sell Sunwarrior Protein Powder 

It is not often that I get excited about protein powder. Most protein powders taste terrible and are loaded with unhealthy chemical ingredients. Sure I have used a few protein powders that are decent but none that actually motivated me to want to sell them on my website until recently. Not too long ago the guys at Sunwarrior were nice enough to send me a few bottles of their rice protein to test drive. Honestly I was expecting another terrible tasting rice protein like all of the other options that are on the marketplace. To my pleasant surprise I was actually shocked with how great the vanilla and chocolate flavors are. Unlike most protein powders both the vanilla and chocolate flavors taste good in water. This is the true test of a protein powder as you can make just about any protein powder taste great by mixing it with tons of fruits in a blender. However, if it tastes good in just water then you know you have a winner. That said the protein powder in water is not enough for everyone so make sure you give some of the protein shake and protein bar recipes a shot when you get the protein powder:  

One more thing, protein powder does not have to be used only for protein shakes. If you do not care for protein shakes for whatever reason there are alternatives. I actually use the sunwarrior protein powder as a base to make some incredible protein bars that are vastly superior to any bar on the market. That is a certainty! I wrote an article that covers how to make some great homemade protein bars. Check it out at 

Homemade Protein Bars For Serious Athletes

For more information on the Sunwarrior rice protein and why you should use it, read the below interview with one of the founders of Sunwarrior Brent Hauver: 

MM: What inspired you to get into the protein powder business and why did you choose rice protein as your focus?

BH: Great question- I was a raw food Vegan for over 17 years, but ran into some problems.  I lost weight, and at 6' 4" was down to 145 lbs. It was like my ability to digest food was gone and I was wasting away.  So in desperation I started searching for something to help regain my strength and muscle.  I found it in Sunwarrior protein.  After 11 months on Sunwarrior protein, I gained 50 lbs, most of it all lean muscle mass.  My energy levels went through the roof and started breaking records on my lifts. What I needed was a Protein Superfood that could help me nourish and heal my body and Sunwarrior went above and beyond my expectations.

MM: Why should people choose the Sunwarrior Rice protein over other protein powders on the market?

BH: What makes Sunwarrior protein so different than other proteins is that we use a unique natural holistic bio-fermentation process that combines the sprouted endosperm and the bran from Raw Sprouted Whole Grain Brown Rice that results in a massive increase in Lysine and essential and non-essential amino acids.  This creates a perfectly balanced amino acid profile that is easy to digest and assimilate.  Also,  have you ever heard of Gamma Oryzanol?  

MM: Yes however most of my visitors probably have not. What are the benefits of Gamma Oryzanol? 

BH: The Japanese have been using and studying this natural compound for years.  Gamma Oryzanol is found in different parts of rice, in particular the Rice germ and Rice Bran.  What the Japanese have found is that Gamma Oryzanol can increase muscle mass, is a potent anti-oxidant and is very effective in healing ulcers and other things.  Well, guess what Because Sun Warrior Protein is made from Bio-Fermented Raw Sprouted Whole Grain Brown Rice (with the bran and germ) is has Gamma Oryzanol in it.

MM: Sounds great and are there any other reasons why people should choose the Sunwarrior protein over others?

BH: Yes, one thing to remember is that if you take whey or Soy protein for a long time, you will eventually develop an allergy to them.  Most body builders know this and will switch proteins every 5 to 6 months.  The nice thing about Sunwarrior is that it is Hypoallergenic meaning that it does not develop allergies. 

MM: So this means that unlike soy, whey, and egg protein powders people will not develop allergies to the Sunwarrior rice protein? 

BH: Exactly.

MM: Many argue that vegetarian protein sources are inferior to animal protein sources. What would you say to them?  

BH: You know Mike that is another good question- In fact Most vegetable and rice proteins on the market today use a chemical non-holistic process that produces an unnatural hard to digest protein lacking in essential and non essential amino acids- especially lysine. We use old world process of combining the sprouted endosperm and the bran from Raw Sprouted Whole Grain Brown Rice.  This unique process creates the first complete hypoallergenic Protein which is made up of all 9 essential amino acids and other non-essential amino acids in a perfectly balanced amino acid profile.  In fact our comparison by an independent lab show that we are equal to or higher in some cases to the amino acid profile of Egg, Whey and Beef. Sunwarrior is created with a Low Temperature natural Enzyme process that does not use any chemicals or acid hydrolysis (like most proteins do).  

MM: Have you done any tests to see how Sunwarior Rice Protein compares to other protein powders in terms of digestion and utilization? 

Yes, this is the Lab we used for the tests-  AAA Service Laboratory is a GLP facility offering high quality amino acid analysis with rapid turn around time. They use the Hitachi L8900 Amino Acid Analyzers with post-column, ninhydrin derivatization. They specialize in analyzing for the 16-common amino acids plus hydroxyproline, hydroxylysine, and cyst(e)ine as cysteic acid. Other amino acids upon request.  Also Net utilization and Digestion

The tested results are :

Sunwarrior had 98% Correlation rate to Mothers Milk and a 98.2% digestion efficiency making it one of the highest digestibility and efficiency ratings of any other protein sources (compared to whey and soy).

Sunwarrior had a 98.8 Net Utilization score, making it one of the Highest Net Protein Utilization score of any vegetable based protein and the highest ratio of amino acids converted to proteins.

Sunwarrior has a complete amino acid profile and biological value (BV) that  is almost identical to that of Whey Protein which is close to 1005.

We are thrilled!

MM: Very impressive! What has been the feedback thus far with the protein powder?

BH:  Incredible In fact I will include some of the responses here:

“I’m almost out and have almost become addicted to this stuff. I put it in room tempt water and it tastes sooo good! I’m in good health but by golly this has kicked up my energy and sense of well-being. It is truly all you say it is. I've used protein powders for years but never liked the bases used, especially the soy. And I'm not talking the taste of it but the nutritional value. So I was so pleased to see the rice base and amazed at how much better it makes me feel and the wonderful taste is a real bonus! THANK YOU for a wonderful product. Addictedly yours :)”
—Anna

“I just love the vegan protein powder that I received. I'm not a vegan or even a vegetarian, as I do eat some meat and a little raw dairy. I do usually have at least one vegan meal a day. I can't tolerate a lot of sugar and eat meat because I really do better with protein. This protein powder is great. I've only had it for two days, so haven't had a chance to experiment much yet. I put some in my vita-mix with chocolate almond milk, coconut milk and stevia. It was luscious, like a milk shake. Thank you so much for this incredible product.”
—Bonnie Franciosi

MM: The price for your protein powder is close to $50.00 for 2lbs. Many of the popular protein powders on the market now are sold for around $35.00 for 2lbs. Why should the consumer be willing to pay nearly 50% more for the sun warrior protein powder?

BH: Yes I can understand this.  Let me make some cases for Sunwarrior. Many people think that protein is protein.  But of course we know that this is not true.  You can buy low end hydrolyzed (chemically processed) protein for cheap that is low quality, and has a low assimilation rate and causes intestinal disturbances and tastes like garbage. Or you can buy a natural process high quality protein that has a high absorption rate and easy to digest, has high efficacy and health value and tastes great.  Your choice- You get what you pay for. Also, In my opinion there are too many body builders and athletes that take so much protein and yet they do not assimilate the protein that they have taken in.  After it is all about digestion and assimilation.  Because Sunwarrior is predigested with biofermentation and enzymes it has a 98 to 99% digestion efficiency.  That means that you do not need to take as much to get the results you need.  Third, Sunwarrior is a functional food or in other words a food that is nutritious and tastes good but also has awesome healing properties. Here are some more reasons to use sunwarrior:

1. Sunwarrior is Naturally Rich in Vitamins and Minerals,  Sun Warrior Protein contains high amounts of antioxidants Tocopherols, and Tocotrienols and other essential nutrients – such as thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, phosphorous, iron and potassium.
2. There is currently a clinical trial which shows promise that our Rice Protein aids in the absorption of vitamins. There has been a direct correlation between the use of Sun Warrior Protein and the absorption of vitamins in aids patients where other proteins do not provide such synergistic affects during the intake.
3. Weight Loss-Clinical studies in Japan have showed that by providing Rice Protein as a staple in a diet, that it can be used as a weight control vehicle. Especially, because of the superior absorption rates.
4. Diabetes- There are Clinical Studies going on right now which show that because of the balanced nutritional profile of our rice, it helps to actually maintain the diabetic affects of sugars, which could be used in diabetic products to help control insulin levels.
5. Cholesterol-Clinical studies have shown promise that our rice protein has cholesterol lowering potential and the USDA is currently using Sun Warrior in trials to see if it, it may help control high blood pressure.

MM: thanks for the great information Brent and I am certainly a big fan of sunwarrior rice protein and look forward to passing on the benefits to my customers.
