Products
The Vega line of products includes vegan protein powder, protein bars, protein snacks, protein shakes, and supplements. Their products are all vegan certified [5] and Non-GMO Project verified. Vega products predominantly use pea based protein instead of the typical dairy based whey protein used in most supplemental protein products.[6]
The Vega Protein with Greens comes in seven different flavours while offering 20 grams of plant based protein, veggies and green daily servings.
