I'm in love!!!! That chocolate protein pudding is heavenly 😋 OMG it's decadent, love the thickness, and no weird aftertaste. To think its 20g of your daily protein, and just to enjoy something that feels like a cheat without the guilt. Well done, and look forward to buying regularly and trying other flavours!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Getting enough high-quality protein in your daily diet is key to supporting overall health and well-being. Protein:

  1. Supports muscle and bone health, helping to build and maintain strength as you age.
  2. Promotes satiety, which can assist with healthy weight management by helping you feel fuller for longer.
  3. Contributes to healthy skin, hair, nails, and joints, and plays a vital role in tissue repair and everyday bodily functions.
  4. Helps regulate body composition by supporting lean muscle mass and metabolic efficiency.
  5. Reduces the risk of age-related decline and injury by maintaining structural strength and resilience.

For a deeper dive into how protein can benefit your health—and how to get the most out of it in your daily diet—contact us, and we’ll put you in touch with a dietician who can help guide you on your protein journey.

For most adults, a daily intake of 1.6 to 2.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight is considered optimal—particularly for maintaining or building muscle, supporting healthy aging, and managing body composition. This recommendation goes well beyond the minimum set by the U.S. Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA), which suggests just 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight. However, the RDA reflects the minimum needed to prevent deficiency, not what’s ideal for optimal health and performance.

Experts in muscle-focused health, including Dr. Gabrielle Lyon and her peers, advocate for higher protein intake to support lean mass, metabolic health, satiety, and physical performance, especially in active individuals or those over 40.

The goal is not just to meet survival needs, but to thrive—preserving strength, mobility, and vitality as you age.

Keep in mind that individual protein requirements may vary based on your activity level, age, goals, and overall health. It’s always a good idea to consult a healthcare provider or dietitian for personalized guidance.

No – they can be stored in a cupboard or a fridge unopened, however, we would recommend consuming them chilled for the best gourmet experience! 

Storing the products in a refrigerator also just assists in keeping freshness and texture maximised throughout the long 4-6 month shelf life from production date, that the products carry.

The main source of protein in Protein Factory products is a premium, European sourced, cows milk protein isolate. 

These proteins contain all 9 essential amino acids at levels exceeding the standard reference ranges, and are considered “Complete Proteins” (most plant proteins are not complete proteins, and need to be blended with other proteins in order to achieve the correct amino acid ratios).
