Vegan clear protein. Nothing missing. Nothing missing.

Well, Nuscle is the first vegan EAA-enriched clear protein.

It's a complete protein with all 9 EAAs and has an EAA content over 50% higher than whey, matching whey's fast absorption speed through extended hydrolysation. This places it far above other plant or animal proteins that are digest slowly, have lower bioavailability, are often incomplete or are low in EAAs.

Unlike traditional shakes, it's also a clear protein — mixing with water like a juice or sports drink rather than a thick, milky shake. It's lighter, easier to drink, and doesn't cause the bloating many people get from dairy or other plant proteins.

Hydrolysis is the natural enzymatic breakdown of proteins into smaller protein peptides that occurs in our digestive system.

This significantly increases solubility, absorption speed, and bioavailability. On its own this has limited use, but when combined with EAA-enrichment it allows more amino acids to be absorbed and utilised in a more controlled timeframe over the 3-hour muscle window after consumption.

Hydrolysis also produces bioactive peptides that are being investigated for their potent biological effects on our bodies — this is why people buy hydrolysed collagen peptides, although collagen is an incredibly weak poor protein source overall.

In short, essential amino acids (EAAs) are the nine amino acids your body can't produce on its own. They're the signals and building blocks your muscles need for repair and growth.

Adding them directly to create enriched protein means we can get the many benefits of both fast-digesting EAAs and whole proteins.

This way we can increase total EAA content, build a more effective and balanced EAA profile, and curate amino acid ratios to ensure benefits are maximised for a range of ages, lifestyles and health states.

Each pouch gives you 30 scoops. That works out to:

• 30 single doses — Each one matches 15g of whey protein or 20g of pea protein.
• 15 double doses — Enough EAAs to hit what your muscles can actually use in one go.

The effects of protein and amino acid supplementation have been shown to increase with more frequent intakes and have no over-supplementation risks under normal circumstances. So have as many doses as you want each day!

We have people with sensitive guts on the team so we've made sure to formulate Nuscle in a gut-friendly way.

There are no sugar-alcohols, artificial additives or fermentable carbohydrates in Nuscle. The protein base is pre-fermented and pre-broken down through hydrolysis to make it less heavy for the digestive system.

However, if you have a sensitivity to protein then please speak to your doctor if you're worried. If you do experience any symptoms and you're concerned then of course see your doctor!

Each single dose (13.5g) gives you 10g of bioavailable complete protein, with a 70% EAA content. It is designed to match 15g of whey, or 20g of pea.

Each double dose (27g) gives you 20g of that same protein. This dose contains enough EAAs to maximally stimulate muscle protein responses, even in people who may respond less strongly, such as those who are aging or under high levels of stress.

For comparison, 100% pure whey, pea, hemp and collagen proteins contain around 40%, 30%, 27% and 16% EAAs respectively.

Every ingredient in Nuscle is naturally-occurring and non-artificial. There is no added sugar, only natural trace amounts.

More than 300 different artificial sweeteners, flavours, preservatives, emulsifiers and other additives are commonly used in supplements, from big and small brands alike. We shouldn't have to consume them to get maximum benefit from a protein.

Nuscle is free of common compounds like dairy hormones, animal antibiotics, and soy oestrogens — every ingredient in Nuscle is also third-party tested for contaminants like heavy metals, moulds and farming chemicals.

When and how do I take it?

Nuscle works anytime you need a protein boost. Here's when it helps most:

• With meals or snacks — One scoop upgrades a meal that's light on high-quality protein.
• Between meals — One scoop keeps your muscles fed during long meal gaps, like mid-morning or mid-afternoon.
• During workouts — One scoop protects your muscle during long or hard training.
• After workouts — Two scoops maximise recovery for the whole 3-hour window.
• Before bed — Two scoops to keep your muscles maintaining and repairing while you sleep.

How to make it:

• Single dose: 1 scoop in 250–300ml cold water. Shake, stir or blend until smooth.
• Double dose: 2 scoops in 500–600ml cold water. Shake, stir or blend until smooth.

Tip: The best time to take Nuscle is whenever you'll actually stick to it. Mornings and evenings tend to be the easiest to build into a routine — try pairing it with breakfast or your last meal of the day.

Powders like most essential amino acids and many plant peptides naturally repel water, making them normally hard to mix.

We use a combination of acidity, dispersion, microencapsulation and agglomeration so that they become wet and dissolve immediately. Here are the short versions:

• Acidity - We ensure that the acidity of Nuscle is controlled close to the point where it will help to dissolve the amino acids most.
• Dispersion - We blend poorly-mixing ingredients with ultra-soluble ingredients so that they wet more easily.
• Microencapsulation - We trap the most difficult ingredients in a ultra-thin lipid-layer or liposome, made from natural healthy fats, which increases solubility (and eliminates any off-tastes!).
• Agglomeration - Clumps very fine dusty particles into large porous granules that let water in easily. This is why it feels a bit sandy between your fingers.

This combination mostly instantises the powder making it easy to mix.

Yes. There are no ingredients in Nuscle that risk over-supplementation or commonly interact with regular supplements.

If you're concerned as with any supplement we would advise checking with your GP first!
