Which additives are in your Protein Powder?

Gainful does not use artificial flavorings, sweeteners, or colorings in any of our protein blends. We don't use any binders, fillers, or preservatives.

All our Gainful protein blends come 100% unsweetened and unflavored. Natural flavors, organic stevia leaf extract, and organic monkfruit extract are separate from your protein. That's because we offer Flavor Packets – so you can pick exactly which flavor you want, every day.

Our whey-based protein blends contain sunflower lecithin. Lecithin is an emulsifier that is included in nearly all Whey protein powders. Lecithin is found in negligible amounts in a wide variety of everyday foods. Emulsifiers make it easy to mix powdered drinks and reduce clumping for a smooth, easy-to-blend protein shake. Gainful's protein powder blends contain a negligible amount (<1% by weight) of sunflower lecithin. Unlike some other companies, Gainful does not use soy lecithin, which is cheaper and potentially dangerous for folks with acute soy allergies.

If you'd like completely lecithin-free protein powder, you can switch over to one of our plant-based blends (which contain no sunflower lecithin).
