Get Complete Protein That's Plant-Based!
Nova is made with a careful blend of plant-based protein that delivers a powerful complete amino acid profile.
Pea, rice and pumpkin protein...the winning combo.
Pumpkin protein contains all 9 essential amino acids & is packed with minerals & antioxidants with anti-inflammatory properties--great to relieve sore muscles and joints.
Pea protein complements rice protein because it's rich in lysine and contains an impressive amount of Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCCAs) which have been shown to build muscle, decrease muscle fatigue and alleviate muscle soreness.
Blended together they create a rich and full amino acid profile--13.5g of complete plant-based protein per serve to effectively repair muscles and kick start your recovery.
Recommended intake: 1 serving, within 30 minutes post workout
To optimise your recovery, you should aim to:
- rehydrate
- replenish with carbohydrates to top-up glycogen stores
- Start to rebuild muscle within the first 30 minutes after exercise with a complete protein source.
Your muscles store energy in the form of glycogen that is released when you exercise. When you work hard your muscles' stores of glycogen are depleted and this is known as the glycogen debt. To optimise recovery it is essential to top up these stores--the quicker the better. Glycogen stores are built up by eating glucose and that means that carbohydrates are your best friends at this time.
With a 3:1 carbohydrate:protein ratio, each 62.5g serving of Nova has plenty of the all-natural essential stuff to kick start your recovery.
Recommended usage:
- Mix a single 62.5g sachet with 300ml of cold water or your favourite milk (plant or dairy!) shake until smooth
- Aim to drink within 30 minutes of finishing exercise
- Once mixed, keep refrigerated and consume within 24 hours. Simple.
- We recommend using a shaker bottle with a mixer ball for optimal mixing
- Shaking them with 300mls cold water makes a rewardingly thick and smooth recovery shake
- Just add more water if you want to loosen the mix
By simply mixing Veloforte's recovery super-shakes with your favourite milk, you can get up to 23g protein per serving.
