AVELOR SUMMARY

Pea protein (from Pisum sativum) is the leading vegan protein — 80-85% protein content, high leucine for a plant source (8% of total amino acids). A 2015 study found 25g pea protein matched 25g whey for muscle thickness gains over 12 weeks of biceps training (Babault 2015). Hypoallergenic (no dairy, soy, gluten). Iron content is a bonus (5-7mg per serving). Taste has improved dramatically with newer extraction methods. --- *Reviewed by the Dose AI Research Team and Clinical Advisory Board* *Last updated: 2026-04-06*
