food can definitely have sentimental value in our lives: holidays, gatherings, cultural food, or simply enjoying our favorites with loved ones is always a special time. because of this, certain foods may hold higher value to us because they remind us of good memories. while our mission is to create & provide superior products with top quality ingredients, we also want to become a product that truly changes your life for the better.
while we’re so glad to have received multiple stories from customers about how our products have enhanced their health, nutrition, and enjoyment of fitness / wellness, one special customer, taya, submitted an incredible story on how our vegan protein helped her:
- restore her health after an eating disorder
- heal her gut health
- improve her relationship with food
- support a more positive lifestyle which allowed her to finish her college degree
we’re so honored to share taya’s story:
first off, i just wanted to reach out and say thank you! over the past two years, i have been on a gut healing journey, and to say that it has been difficult would be an understatement.
last year, i had to transfer to online college due to the severity. i was diagnosed with celiac disease and arfid, an eating disorder. january 2023 marked the beginning of my recovery. through the assistance of my family, my therapist, and my dietitian, i began to slowly reincorporate foods. this process was to combat my eating disorder thoughts and also test what ingredients worked with my body.
i was first informed about beam vegan protein products through chloe trca and all of her recipes. i had deemed so many foods as "good" or "bad", but her content truly helped rewire the way i thought about food. i am super passionate about health and fitness, so the usage of protein powder was no secret to me.
a large amount of protein powders do not work with my stomach; however, all of the vegan flavors that i have tried are not only delicious but digest well. (i'd say my top 3 are brown sugar oatmeal, natural vanilla, and birthday cake!) this was super pivotal in my recovery as i would add beam protein powder to smoothies, trying to boost my caloric intake…this august, i was able to return to college residentially for my senior year and i am making progress each day.
i still need to be conscious of the food i consume, but i have a bettered relationship to food, thanks to companies such as beam!
taya’s story shows one instance of us being successful with our mission. as she mentions, the options for quality vegan protein on the market are incredibly slim. because of our third party testing and strict emphasis on quality ingredients with no fillers, we’ve been able to introduce what is genuinely the best vegan protein you will ever try.
our strict regulations with ingredients paired with our talent around flavor profiles allows us to create new vegan protein options with amazing flavors - you can incorporate these into different recipes or simply enjoy on their own!
alongside 20g protein per scoop, our vegan protein also:
- is gluten, soy & dairy free
- is vegan friendly
- contains 0 added sugar
- contains prebiotics to support better digestion & gut health
- includes clinically proven trace minerals to support daily bodily functions
if you’re someone with a history of heal obstacles, or are just cautious of ingredients you put into your body (as you should be), we highly encourage you to try our products & especially our vegan protein as a great way to not only improve your protein intake, but also give you something to look forward to daily 🙂 click here to shop!
