Frequently Asked Questions
Is Sunwarrior plant protein as effective as whey?
For trained individuals, a pea-rice blend at 30g per serving (Active Protein) produces a comparable muscle protein synthesis response to a 25g serving of whey. The slightly larger serving compensates for the lower leucine density of plant proteins. Studies in trained athletes show no meaningful difference in strength or hypertrophy outcomes when total protein and leucine are matched.
What's the difference between Active Protein and Warrior Blend?
Active Protein is a pea-rice-pumpkin blend designed for performance, with 30g of protein, 6g BCAAs, Informed Choice certification, and added botanicals (tart cherry, maca, turmeric) for recovery support. Warrior Blend is a fermented pea-hemp-goji formula with about 20g of protein, MCT oil from coconut, and a keto-friendly macro profile -- positioned as a general daily protein.
Are Sunwarrior products safe for competition?
Active Protein carries Informed Choice certification, which means each batch is tested for substances on the WADA prohibited list. Other products in the Sunwarrior line do not currently carry Informed Choice or NSF Certified for Sport. Always confirm batch-level certification status on a product's PDP if you are subject to drug testing.
