Vega Performance Protein + Recovery is a plant-based protein powder formulated to assist recovery from exercise like weight training or high-intensity interval training. Each serving provides 30 grams of protein from a blend of pea protein isolate, pumpkin seed protein concentrate, and organic sunflower seed protein concentrate, along with 12 grams of essential amino acids and 5 grams of glutamic acid. It also includes 480 mg of Montmorency tart cherry as CherryPure® and 2 billion CFU of the shelf-stable probiotic Bacillus subtilis DE111®, which is heat-stable to survive storage and digestion.

This product is NSF Certified for Sport, meaning it has been independently tested for over 270 athletic banned substances and heavy metals. The manufacturer notes that the pea protein is an isolate while the pumpkin seed and sunflower seed proteins are concentrates, and it is sweetened with stevia leaf extract without added sugars. It is available in multiple flavors including Peanut Butter, Vanilla, Chocolate, Mocha, and Berry, with the Peanut Butter variant containing peanut flour and rosemary extract among its other ingredients.
