Wazoogles Superfood Protein Blend Review | Peanut Butterlicious!

This review looks at a vegan protein powder and superfood smoothie blend, more specifically the Wazoogles Superfood Protein Blend – Peanut Butterlicious!

Protein shakes are a great way to add to your daily intake of calories as well as essential nutrients and ‘super foods’, and add just what you need. There is no need to overdo it on the protein, but sometimes we may find ourselves needing a little extra, especially on days where we may have trained a lot harder than usual for instance.

I have tried many flavored plant based protein powders, and have found it difficult finding ones that actually taste good and have no awful aftertaste or pea taste. After many years of using unflavored raw pea protein, which I add to smoothies, I decided to venture out and try some new ones, like the Youthful Living Vegan Keto shake.

I used the Wazoogles Superfood Protein Blend and I really love the taste and nutritional profile. Lets take a deeper look at it.

the Wazoogles story

In 2010, after 10 long years of struggling with a weak immune system that his doctor managed with constant antibiotics, Warren was sick and tired of being sick and tired! He visited a top ENT specialist, who offered no solution other than a lifetime of chronic medication.

Unsatisfied, Warren began a search for alternative answers, he met a naturopath who conducted a blood microcirculation analysis and suggested a series of lifestyle changes. Warren took his health into his own hands, ditched the prescription pills and radically changing his diet. His health was upgraded forever. Months passed and the sickness was gone; Warren was feeling better than ever. And just like that, a deep passion for wellness was born. Read more on their blog.

Flavors and Sizes

The superfood protein blend powder is available in 500 grams or 1 Kg and comes in a few flavors, Peanut Butterlicious, Vanilla Sky, Chocolate Moondust, Plant Power, Unicorn Berry and Kungfu Coffee with a Cinnamon Kick. I tried the Peanut Butterlicious and the Chocolate Moondust.

The great thing about these different flavors, is that each one actually offers something a little bit different to the others. So while the flavors are different, so are some of the ingredients. They all have similar base ingredients, but depending on the flavor certain other ingredients and superfoods are added. Thus it is definitely worth checking out the ingredients to each flavor and seeing which you would want more for you.

1kg – 30 servings per bag
500g – 15 servings per bag
33g – 1 serving per bag

Mixes

The Wazoogles powder mixes well with no lumps or bubbles at all. It mixed well with both water and Macadamia/Oat milk, and mixes very well in a blender when added to a smoothie. It also is really great added to a bowl of oats with some fruit. It really gives it a nice peanut butter flavor.

Taste

In terms of the taste, I do like it. I quite liked the Peanut Butterlicious flavour and favor it over the Chocolate Moondust flavour. I felt like the Peanut Butterlicious is more versatile and could be used in smoothies and oats quite nicely.

I personally like to add some extra cacao powder to mine or add it as part of a smoothie with some chia seeds, banana and dates!

Protein content

This is the part that I was most concerned with, the PROTEIN and nutritional values.

It has a relatively decent nutritional profile, carrying about 38.1 grams of protein per 100 grams of powder.
Per serving (1 heaped scoop = 33 grams) it comes down to 12.6 grams of protein, which may not sound like a lot but is sufficient for one serving considering what else it’s packed with.

While the protein amounts may seem a bit low, it is packed with other Superfoods that contain protein, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. Superfoods in this context are the most mineral and nutrient dense organic foods on the planet, easily absorbable and useable by the human body.

Extra Nutritional values

The extra nutritional values are just as important as the protein content.

The carbohydrate content is just about 34.0 grams per 100 grams while the fat content is at 13.2 grams per 100 grams.

It has no added artificial sweeteners and contains 18.7 grams of Fibre per 100 grams.
