Bio availability is low and most aren't great quality

One of the more complete plant based proteins, taste is very subjective, (I can't stand it by itself, but some have no problem). There are only two sources I would use. Can be expensive and as mentioned does not have the bio availability of high quality whey, but can be found in some good blends and if you are looking for a plant based protein it is one of the better sources.

Ok I was trying to decide if I should carry it or not.

Never tried this out. Would have to sample some to give a good experience. Sounds touch and go.

Depending on who you think your customer base will be, the vegan crowd likes it as it is one of the better plant based proteins, but the non-vegan crowd generally will use something else.

With that said, can you see if you can carry the Vega Sport line. If not the whole line, than the protein at least. I have been really happy with it and I use it when funds allow and would most certainly purchase it from you.

Thanks,
