Whether you are working out on a daily basis or simply trying to maintain maximum nutrition from your diet, getting enough protein in your diet can be a constant challenge. Fortunately, the addition of protein powders to your diet will really ramp up your protein intake. But many of us find that protein powders, even vegan protein powders, result in bloating and gas. Genuine Health Fermented Vegan Proteins+ are a new product created to prevent the digestive problems that result from consuming regular protein powders. Disclosure: I received complimentary samples of Genuine Health Fermented Vegan Proteins+ in order to complete my review.

Genuine Health Fermented Vegan Proteins+ are not only plant-powered proteins, they are highly absorbable, which means your body is receiving more nutrients. Each serving contains 20g of fermented protein. I also love that they do not contain soy and are made from non-GMO ingredients.

Genuine Health Fermented Vegan Proteins+ comes in two flavours: Natural Vanilla and Natural Chocolate. They also come in Fermented Vegan Proteins+ bars including Dark Chocolate Almond, Double Chocolate Chip, Lemon Coconut and Peanut Butter Chocolate. I was curious to try the Fermented Vegan Proteins+ in a smoothie bowl, which I have started having for breakfast.
