Launched in 2013 by Dr Zak Pallikaros – BSc, MSc, PhD, he wanted to create high protein foods so you could still include the foods in your diet that you would normally avoid. Such as bread and pasta. Using the finest ingredients and baked in the UK the bread is a perfect balance of protein and carbohydrates in every slice.
The protein blend is from high quality protein isolates that deliver a complete amino acid profile. Using ingredients like linseed provides a source of omega 3 and sunflower seeds which are high in vitamins and minerals, Dr Zak has certainly done his research :-)
Each loaf contains 214g of protein, 2 slices will provide you wil a 30g serving of protein and a 30g serving of carbohydrates. Whats even better IT TASTES JUST AS GOOD as the bread you find in your supermarket. Still soft and doughy but because of the ingredients it keeps you nice and full.
We found a great recipe on the Dr Zaks website that we had to share with you :-)
