I recently got to try a few of Yokos’ vegan dairy free yoghurts and really enjoyed them. It is not the easiest finding a good vegan yoghurt, so thankfully Yokos really delivers with its range.

This review looks at a vegan rice protein powder, more specifically Organic Life Nutrition’s Rice Protein Powder. This is the first rice protein powder that I have ever tried, so this should be interesting. Protein shakes are a great way to add to your daily intake of calories, and add just what you need. There is no need to overdo […]

Fast forward to 2019, and what is said to be the “Year of the Vegan”, stereotypes are being crushed and masculinity re-defined by science and the […]
