Let’s see what’s inside…
Why Do We Use Coconut Flour?
Coconut flour is dried and ground coconut meat. Coconut meat has an impressive 60% dietary fibre nutritional content. Fibre is good. Fibre is food for our beneficial gut microbiota or gut flora and because it can't be properly absorbed by the human body, some of those calories and carbohydrates from the coconut aren’t absorbed and used, but continue straight through the digestive system, taking toxins and waste along with them. This is obviously good news! Coconut has a good dose of Electrolytes - especially sodium and potassium which makes it a great food to break a fast with. Coconut flour is also a favourite for those on a Paleo or gluten-free diet (including those who have been diagnosed with Coeliac Disease). It's also fine for people with nut allergies as well as diabetic's. More reasons to choose Fasting For Fitness Coconut Protein+

The quality of the whey protein depends on the diet of the cows.
Our Whey Protein
It might sound obvious but you’d be surprised how many people don’t realise this one simple fact…The quality of whey protein depends on the diet of the cows. Cows that have a grass based diet have a higher concentration of quality fats and quality proteins. The milk from organically raised cows doesn’t contain any antibiotics, hormones or heavy metals. That is why we only use whey protein from EU cattle that are pasture-raised in organically grown fields and meadows.
There are in fact 2 types of Whey Protein; Acid Whey and Sweet Whey– Acid Whey does have a better nutritional profile than sweet whey but due to taste it’s less commonly sold. We use organic sweet whey as we do not add any sweeteners to our whey protein – the baobab powder (see below) adds an awesomely sweet yet tangy taste to our Whey Protein+
Why do we sweeten with Baobab Powder?
Baobab powder is just raw, dried baobab fruit. This tangy fruit comes from, you guessed it, the Baobab tree! These trees are native to tropical latitudes of Africa as well as certain regions of Madagascar, The Arabian Peninsula and Australia.
