You train. You eat. You recover.
But you feel there is more in you.
That is why Protein+ consists of 25% pure algae. These are naturally rich in protein, as well as fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
Satiating and light
20g protein, 100% plant-based, lactose-free + 2.1g fiber.
More than protein
Energy (B12), immune system (Iron) and skin (Biotin).
Just really delicious
No compromise on taste.
Six natural ingredients.
That truly contribute to nutrition and taste.
We deliberately use the whole algae, rather than just isolating the protein from it. This way, you don't just get protein, but also everything else chlorella naturally has to offer. Exactly what Protein+ is all about: more than protein.
A great addition to chlorella that brings Protein+ to 20 grams of protein per shake. Without soy or dairy. We chose fava bean protein because it pairs well with chlorella: an efficient plant-based source, rich in protein, with a strong amino acid profile and a mild taste.
Guar gum comes from the seeds of the guar plant and is used as a natural thickener. A small amount makes Protein+ a bit softer and creamier.
A natural vanilla aroma that makes the taste of Protein+ smooth and well-rounded. Not overwhelmingly sweet, just delicious.
Sea salt balances the different flavors and brings out the vanilla better.
Stevia is a sweetener derived from the stevia plant. We use only a small amount to lightly sweeten Protein+, without making it an overly sweet shake.
Frequently asked questions
No, surprisingly not. We use white chlorella, which is almost neutral in taste — no seaweed smell, no bitter aftertaste. What you taste is mild, creamy vanilla. Most people, at first sip, won't guess it contains algae. We even challenge you: try it blind alongside another shake. We're confident in that comparison.
Almost everyone expects it to be green — but this shake is creamy white. The secret lies in the type of algae: we use white chlorella, not the familiar green variety. Same nutritional power, but the colour and taste of a regular vanilla shake. So, no green glass.
Yes, absolutely. 20 grams per serving, with a complete amino acid profile — all the building blocks your body needs, just like with whey. This is due to the combination of chlorella and fava bean protein, which complement each other perfectly. And because it's plant-based, it's easier on the stomach.
Most shakes only provide protein — a protein isolate, and nothing else. We work with the whole chlorella algae cell, so you get much more than just protein: naturally also fibre, vitamins (including 100% of your daily B12 requirement) and iron. It is the first shake with 25% algae — effectively a new category of food.
For everyone who wants wholesome nutrition without the fuss. Whether you eat plant-based, need to get through a busy morning, are looking for more protein, or just want to make more conscious choices — Protein+ fits. Vegan, lactose-free, and easy on the stomach, so almost everyone tolerates it well.
Absolutely. Protein isn't just for the gym — it keeps your muscles, energy, and satiety levels up, no matter what your day looks like. Those who eat a plant-based (or more plant-based) diet or are older often lack sufficient protein. Think of it as an easy, nutritious base, not a sports supplement.
Simple: 30 grams of powder with 250 ml of plant-based milk or water. A shaker bottle with a ball will give you the smoothest, lump-free shake — but a blender or hand blender works just as well. Ready in twenty seconds.
Certainly. Cocoa is in the works, and more flavours are planned. Do you have a favourite that absolutely must be included? Let us know, we'd love to hear from you.

Created by our food scientists together with the community.
Over the past few months, our food scientists have developed this algae shake with the help of the community. Thanks to your feedback, it is not only exceptionally nutritious but also delicious.
FROM IDEA TO FINAL RESULT - It took hundreds of samples and dozens of tastings. But the final recipe is better than we ever dared to dream. Fewer ingredients, more nutritional value, and a taste you really have to experience for yourself to believe.
TASTING EVENT — Tasting and improving the first versions of the shake with the community!
It's really nice that you get 20 grams of protein from just 6 clean ingredients! And as a bonus, all the vitamins and minerals naturally found in the algae. I think that might be the strongest point of the product.
HUT-TO-HUT HIKE - The shake went along to great heights as a super-nutritious snack!
I was able to test the Protein+ shake during its development this summer and saw several versions go by.
The final flavor in particular pleasantly surprised me. Not a typical 'green' algae taste, but a lightly sweet vanilla flavor. And super healthy to boot. I'm a fan!
A shake that, in addition to protein, also contains fiber and iron from plant-based sources. For me, a great supplement after working out.
