Why Choose Pure Nutrition Protein Pancake Mix
The vast majority of traditional pancake and baking mixes you find on the market include large amounts of added sugar and other high-glycemic carbohydrates (like refined flour) that significantly spike blood sugar and insulin levels. In turn, these mixes provide little satiety and often lead to a rapid swing in energy levels shortly after finishing your meal, which is far from ideal - especially in the morning.
This is why Pure Nutrition Protein Pancake Mix provides a high amount of complete protein and slow-digesting complex carbohydrates to give you lasting energy (no sugar crashing) and help promote muscle protein synthesis. Unlike many pancake mixes, Protein Pancake Mix doesn’t contain cheap ingredients or harsh artificial sweeteners like aspartame.
In fact, you can use Protein Pancake Mix as a meal replacement shake by just adding milk or water to it in a shaker cup and drinking. If you want an added protein boost, try tossing in a scoop of Pure Nutrition Whey Isolate or Pure Nutrition Liquid Egg Whites. The healthy possibilities are endless with our Protein Pancake Mix!
