Our take
CleanPlate reviewSingle pea protein isolate with 3.2 g saturated fat
Nakpro Pea Plant Protein Isolate (Unflavoured) is a 1 kg tub of instantised pea protein isolate (100%). One 36 g heaped scoop gives about 29 g of protein.
CleanPlate scores it DC3. The D for nutrition is low: only 80 g protein per 100 g and little else credited. The C for ingredients reflects mostly refined or industrial ingredients (led by instantized pea protein isolate), and almost no additives. The 3 for risk comes mainly from calories (386 kcal per 100 g) and saturated fat (3.18 g per 100 g).
