Happy Way Protein Powder

When I started my plant based journey, I began the hunt for a vegan, gluten free protein powder, and after trying a few, this one has been my favourite (by far!).

The vanilla flavour is really quite mild – it isn’t overpowering and doesn’t have a funny aftertaste, which I find some protein powders to have. I also love that it’s been tested to be gluten free.

In the past, protein powders have given me a sore stomach, even when they’ve been gluten free, but so far, this one hasn’t caused me any issues, which I love! Smoothies are just so much easier for breakfast – or dinner. I’m trying to lose weight (as always!) and so am really trying to replace one meal with a shake per day.

One thing that I don’t love, is the incorrect labelling – while this product is tested for gluten, and labelled as gluten free (as it has the right to be), it does carry a may contain warning, something that certified gluten free products aren’t supposed to have.

Coeliac Australia advises that if a company does have incorrect labelling, you should let the company know in writing, as well as forwarding a complaint to the Food Safety Authority, so that they can follow it up – so I’ve emailed the company to let them know, but so far, no response.

Hi! I’m Jo. Wife to a kiwi, mum to teenagers.

When that diagnosis first comes, it can feel overwhelming and life changing. Suddenly, life as you know it has changed. Spontaneity is replaced by meticulous planning. Take away dinners are swapped for home cooked meals. Familiar brands are substituted with the unknown. 

But it doesn’t have to mean the end of joy. Good food, party invites, and family adventures can still be a big part of your life. It just takes a little extra planning, a little support, and a little inspiration!
