EVR-Fit Edge protein powder review: The pros and cons of this vegan supplement

Should you try this vegan protein powder?

Christine VanDoren

Considering the extra work companies have to put into vegan protein powder to make it plant-based in the first place, the flavor can be pretty hit or miss. Non-vegan powders that contain dairy ingredients also tend to add sugars that make the flavors plenty sweet and easy to consume with just water or milk alone.

So what about EVR-Fit Edge? Is there vegan protein powder that’s tasty and still a healthy source of protein? Let’s find out!

Nutritional information

This protein powder comes in two flavors: Chocolate and antioxidant berry blend. While I cannot attest to the berry flavor, I did try the chocolate flavor, and I wasn’t the biggest fan. However, this is common when it comes to vegan powders, and I do think this powder would be very enjoyable when added to other foods and beverages.

Should you buy EVR-Fit Edge Protein Powder?

Beyond the taste, I would recommend this brand of protein powder. The ingredients are natural and straightforward; there is a proprietary blend, which you would typically want to avoid because of the lack of specificity of information, but it’s a small blend that doesn’t make too much of a difference when it comes to the protein itself.

There are 30 grams per serving, which is on the higher end of protein powders in general, especially plant-based ones. The powder is also high in fiber, iron, calcium, and potassium, and it contains hardly any sugar.

Overall, I would recommend that you try the EVR-Fit Edge protein powder. You may want to mix it into foods like oatmeal and smoothies to support the taste, but it appears to be a high-quality product that’s more natural in comparison to other protein powders out there.

Add these superfoods to your protein shakes to get more nutrients and vitamins
Change up the flavor of your shakes with this superfood variety
Man making a protein shake.

A balanced diet contains carbohydrates, fats, proteins, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. These can include “superfoods,” but should in general, also contain a variety of different fruits and vegetables. If you are rushed for whole meals, here are the best superfoods that you can throw into your protein shake to get all the nutrients you need to power through your day.

What is a superfood?
“Superfood” is marketing jargon for “nutrient-packed food.” The term technically doesn’t have a specific scientific meaning or an official definition beyond just speaking of foods that are nutrient-rich. In general, your diet should always consist of a variety of foods, various nutrient-dense foods (not just one to two superfoods), and should have a balance of macronutrients based on your individual needs.

High protein diets: Everything you need to know
Thinking about a new diet? Here's what a high protein approach looks like
Healthy foods

Fitness goals usually fall under one of two categories: working out more and eating better. This can involve following a high protein diet, adding more veggies to dinners, and getting into a running routine. However, there is no need to wait for January, because you can make positive changes at any time of the year!

Now, there are so many routes one can go when considering a diet. Fortunately, a high-protein approach is one of the easiest to pull off. Moreover, it's a diet that will likely involve some changes to what you eat, but not so dramatically that you'll give up on it after a few weeks.

New research finds protein absorption myth is, in fact, a myth
A new study challenges a commonly known fitness 'fact'
Animal protein sources

Regarding macronutrients, protein steals the show in the fitness industry -- especially when it comes to improving body composition and packing on lean muscle mass. It's been a common "fact" in the fitness industry that our bodies can only absorb 20 grams of protein in one meal, but a newly published study is debunking this fitness myth. The findings of this study are powerful, suggesting that consuming more than 20 grams of protein in one sitting is not wasteful. Below, we'll explore what you need to know about the findings of this interesting study and debunk this protein absorption myth.

How much protein can the body absorb?
The newest scientific piece published in Cell Reports Medicine questioned how much protein the body can absorb, finding that there is no upper limit on how much protein our bodies can effectively use. To test this hypothesis, researchers split participants into three groups: one that consumed 25 grams of protein, one that consumed 100 grams of protein, and a placebo group. Each group performed the same resistance training session, and researchers then measured how their bodies responded over the next 12 hours.
