I have been using protein powders 1982. Since then I have always supplemented my diet with many types of protein powders. I have tried whey which gave me allergies; soy which did absolutely nothing for my body except make it tired and weak; egg which gave me bad gas, bloating, and diarrhea; casein which gave me skin irritations, ear infection, and digestive problems. Each one of these proteins always presented some sort of problem with my body.
In 2010, after a 9 week detox to cleanse my entire body, I switched to a “High Raw” diet by eating about 80% raw fruits, vegetables, nut’s and seeds. The only problem was that I lost a lot of muscle and strength, which for an athlete and personal trainer was not a good thing. Finding raw vegan protein sources was a challenge. I came across a popular brown rice protein which was helping a lot, however I still felt something was missing.
After another year of research, testing, and development of the best plant based proteins I finally created Dale’s Raw Protein, a combination of the best sprouted plant based proteins plus Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA), L-Glutatime, and food enzymes. My strength came back up, I added several lbs of muscle, lost a lot of body fat (due to the clean raw food diet) and there were zero side effects. I am feeling great and performing better in my fitness training sessions then ever before.
1) Hemp Protein: Hemp seeds are one of nature’s best sources for plant-based protein. Containing all of the essential amino acids the body needs. It is fantastic for athletes and smoothie-lovers who want higher protein and a naturally nutty flavor.
2) Pea Protein: Extremely high in Leucine, Arginine, and Glutamine, along with a balanced amino acid profile. This protein Isolate is derived and isolated from peas and its natural protein fraction, which possesses a low level of denaturing and is very soluble (mixes very well). NON-GMO, low allergenic and gluten free. The digestibility of this product is at approximately 90-95%.
3) Organic Rice Protein: This product is hypo-allergenic, easily digestible, and great tasting. The material is derived from non-GMO whole grain brown rice, with an amino acid profile correlation of 97% as compared to a Whey protein.
Additional Ingredients: Glutamine, Branched Chain Amino Acids, Protease Enzyme Complex, and Natural Premium Flavors (with stevia)
About Dale:
I’m Dale Buchanan, founder of Dale’s Raw Foods. I have been in the health, fitness, and nutrition business for over 25 years. I currently own a personal training studio called Supreme Ultimate Fitness in Boca Raton, FL. Since I was 21 I have owned and operated 6 business’s including several in the health and fitness industry.
I started Dale’s Raw Foods after a profound experience I had after a detox I did in 2010 to cleanse the junk out of my body. Afterwords I went on a raw food diet and had greater results. One thing was missing as I tried to continue my high intensity workouts, and that was PROTEIN. My body was not recovering and I was losing strength. That’s when I started to research the best PLANT BASED PROTEINS used by raw foodies and vegans.
Fast forward to the end of 2010 when I brought some of my Raw Food Bars to my personal training clients and kettlebell workshops I was teaching. They all loved them and told me I should sell them to the public. I dismissed the idea at the time and kept making the bars and researching the best plant proteins. After months of searching I found a company to manufacture the food bars, protein, and trail mix for me. Dale’s Raw Foods was formed.
