Organic Protein Powder FAQs

Is Thriving Family protein powder pregnancy & breastfeeding friendly?

Yes!

In saying this, we do advise on all our products to seek advice from your health care professional on taking our products if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. We only say so as we believe that every pregnancy is different, taking a toll differently on each individual body in vitamin, mineral and energy levels.

We invite you to research the product to ensure that you are not sensitive to any particular ingredients.

What makes Thriving Family protein powder suitable for use in children and pregnant & breastfeeding women?

Our organic protein powder, Thriving Family, contains no artificial ingredients, amino acids or synthetic vitamins & minerals. This means that not only are the nutrients easily recognised and absorbed by the body, but further as they are naturally occurring nutrients, which are the safest and most suitable way to provide a growing body with the nutrients they need, and aren't associated with adverse reactions. 

Is Thriving Family protein powder suitable as a post-workout supplement?

Although Thriving Family can be taken post exercise, it is not our most suitable product for recovery. Our Clean Proteins provide a higher amounts of protein per serve, are lower in carbohydrates and contain more complementary nutrients for exercise recovery. 

Is Thriving Family protein powder suitable as a replacement for baby formula?

No. Thriving Family is not suitable for consumption for children under the age of 12 months old and is not suitable for use in place of any formula product. Further, Thriving Family is also not a suitable replacement for follow-on formula and should only be utilised as part of a healthy varied diet. For further advice on when might be the right time to incorporate Thriving Family into the diet of your individual child, it would be the best to talk to your primary health care physician. 

30 g of Thriving Family Vanilla protein powder seems like a big serve size, can I give my child less while still maintaining some of the benefits? 

Absolutely! For children under 3, a half serve might be more appropriate depending on your child's individual eating habits and needs. You will notice the nutrition panel for Thriving Family is very comprehensive and provides a large portion of the RDI for many vitamins & minerals. Therefore a half serve will still provide a substantial portion of the RDI for these vital nutrients to help fulfil nutritional gaps. 

Is Thriving Family protein powder good for non-breastfeeding adults too?

Yes! Thriving Family can help fulfil nutritional gaps in any person's diet in a wholesome and delicious way due to being such a good source of protein, carbohydrate and fat. Thriving Family can be an easy way to incorporate protein into your breakfast through a smoothie, porridge or breakfast muffins. 

Can I use Thriving Family protein powder in baking or will all the nutrition get destroyed by heat?

You can definitely include Thriving Family in any baking. Some water soluble vitamins such as B vitamins and vitamin C are susceptible to heat, however, all of the vital minerals and macro nutrients such as protein will be preserved, adding a good whack of nutrition to whatever baked good you add it into.

Why has Thriving Protein changed to Thriving Family?

We are excited to give Thriving Protein a new look & a new name to suit her true personality - Thriving Family!

Why? Because Thriving Family is so much more than a protein - it's a multivitamin too!

Unlike our Clean Protein, Thriving Family is not a fitness supplement. It's a daily wholefood blend to help everyone in the family - both kids & adults - get all the important nutrients they need to thrive.

Thriving Family Strawberries & Cream new look will be coming soon!

Has the formulation changed?

Only very slightly! Due to ingredient shortages & to make room to increase our wholefood multivitamin blend, we have removed Chia Seed Meal & White Button Mushroom. The rest of the formulation remains unchanged - exactly as you know and love.
