How we verify

The brand submits the formula. We read the supplement facts panel and weigh dose, form and synergy against the clinical evidence. Labs test. IngredientMD verifies. The fee pays for review time, never for the outcome.

How we read this product

Source: Supplement facts
Supplement Facts panel for Organic Protein Powder
  1. 01
    We read the label.

    The panel on the left is the one we evaluated, line by line.

  2. 02
    Every active, separately.

    All 13 actives checked against the clinical evidence: dose, form, and what the research actually shows.

  3. 03
    Then the formula as a whole.

    Doses, ratios, and how the ingredients work together. That assessment is the verdict above: "Backed by human trials".

  4. 04
    Earned, not bought.

    The verdict is public and identical whether or not a brand pays. A formula that does not clear the bar gets nothing.

Read by the engine against 2.1 million data points from clinical trials, PubMed and more than a hundred vetted sources. No individual reviewer is named or implied.

Randomised trial, 2024

Pea protein supplementation alongside a resistance training programme was assessed for muscle performance measures, with the authors reporting on the combination rather than protein alone.

Nutrients
Sodium

Systematic review, 2026

A systematic review catalogued gastrointestinal symptoms reported across sodium bicarbonate dosing protocols and described how symptom burden varies with dose, timing and whether the dose is split or given with food.

The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology
Organic Chia Seed

Randomised trial, 2023

Neither chia flour nor whey protein supplementation produced a detectable further improvement in body composition or strength gains after a resistance training programme. A failure to detect a difference, not proof of none.

Nutrients
Organic Pea Protein

Systematic review, 2025

The review compared plant against animal protein on muscle mass, strength and physical performance and did not detect a clear separation between the sources in the trials available, which is a failure to detect a difference within the limits of that evidence base rather than a demonstration that the sources are equivalent.

Nutrition Reviews
Organic Rice Dextrins

Randomised trial, 2026

Dextrin served as the comparator preparation in this randomised trial of a fermented whey protein supplement, with the reported differences in muscle mass and physical function measures favouring the protein arm.

Journal of Medicinal Food
Organic Inulin

Randomised trial, 2025

A single 15 g dose of inulin did not shorten a 15 km cycling time trial in 21 active men (difference -10 seconds, 95% CI -151 to 130), even though breath hydrogen confirmed the fibre was being fermented.

Organic Rosemary Extract

Journal of Medicinal Food
Organic Pea Protein

Randomised trial, 2020

Whey and pea protein were compared after eccentric exercise. The trial did not detect a meaningful separation between the two supplements on the muscle damage markers followed, which is a failure to detect a difference and not a demonstration that none exists.

  • A mechanism that is settledHow Potassium and Sodium work is settled pharmacology.
  • Studied together, not just separatelyPotassium and Sodium have been studied together, not only separately.
  • Recent work on the recordThe most recent study on this record was published in 2026.
  • Why this formatIt is a powder, so the serving scales to the amount you want and mixes into something you already drink.
  • The exact form, describedThe label names its forms exactly: Potassium chloride, Sodium chloride, table salt, sea salt, Pea protein isolate. The record says what each one is and what it suits.

What the trials show

What the trials show about timing.

Time-to-effect windows the engine read from the trial record. Each is a window a named study measured, cited and dated, never written by the brand.

  • Sodiumabout 3 days to 4 weeks of steady intakeBuilds with daily use

    In the excretion studies the EFSA reference opinion reviews, urinary output closely tracked dietary sodium once intake was held steady: 98% of dietary sodium appeared in 24-hour urine in a 3-day study, and 86% of sodium ingested over 4 weeks was recovered in 24-hour urine collected during the same period.

    Early
  • Sodiumabout 29 days at each fixed intake levelBuilds with daily use

    In the controlled metabolic study the EFSA reference opinion reviews, young men held at constant sodium intakes for 29 days per level showed rising average daily urinary aldosterone excretion as intake was stepped down from 4.9 g/day to 2.5 g/day.

    Promising
  • Organic Pea Proteinabout 12 weeks of daily use alongside trainingBuilds with daily use

    In an 84-day randomised trial, sedentary adults took pea protein or whey protein daily alongside a weekly resistance training programme. The pea protein group improved whole-body muscle strength by 16.1 percent from baseline, and no significant between-group differences appeared in strength, muscle mass or product perception.

    Promising
  • Organic Inulinabout four weeks of daily useBuilds with daily use

    In a randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trial in constipated elderly volunteers (25 in the inulin arm), 15 g per day of chicory native inulin significantly raised total faecal bacteria and bifidobacteria counts after 28 days, alongside reported reductions in defecation difficulty. Flatulence was reported but did not stop participation. A separate four-week randomised trial funded by the ingredient maker BENEO gave 8 g per day to 18 subjects with reduced tolerance of intestinal gas and found gas retention fell 22 percent against baseline, a change that did not separate from placebo, with higher bifidobacteria counts against placebo.

  • Organic High Oleic Sunflower OilWithin minutes

    As a softgel carrier it works with the capsule it is in, releasing its contents within minutes. It is not an active, so it has no onset of its own.

  • Organic Inulin

    Gurgling can show up the first day. The steadier part, regularity and a rise in bifidobacteria, builds over roughly two weeks of daily use.

    Its own page, the plain answer on timing

  • Organic Rice DextrinsWithin minutes

    As a binder it holds a tablet together and dissolves within minutes, so it has no onset of its own. As a resistant fibre grade, digestive changes settle over one to two weeks.

  • Organic Rice Bran Extract

    It has no onset of its own. Its work is done inside the capsule before you swallow it, holding volume and keeping the powder flowing.

Chemical form

The same ingredient, carried differently.

What each form is, and where it fits in a formula. Measured findings carry the study that reported them.

  • Brown rice protein

    Enzymatic separation of the protein fraction from the starch, typically to 70 to 85 percent protein.

    Fits
    Used as a plant protein base, commonly paired with pea protein to fill in the lysine gap.
    Trade-off
    Lower lysine and leucine per gram than dairy protein, and the concentration step can carry over the grain's arsenic into a more concentrated product, which is why lot testing matters.
  • High-oleicActive and formulation aid

    Cultivar-derived oil in which the monounsaturated oleic acid predominates and linoleic acid is minor

    Fits
    Softgel fills, encapsulation and heated applications where oxidative stability governs
    Trade-off
    Contributes little essential linoleic acid, so it is a carrier choice rather than an omega-6 source

Format

Powder

It is a powder, so the serving scales to the amount you want and mixes into something you already drink.

Best forGram-scale actives: creatine, collagen, protein, electrolytes, beta-alanine.
Recurring supply suggested

Because the effect builds and holds only with continued daily use, a steady recurring supply is the practical way to keep it going.
