Shop Vegan Protein at Myprotein
Vegan protein powder is one of the most versatile tools in any plant-based athlete's kit. Whether you're training hard, staying active, or simply want to hit your daily protein targets without animal products, there's a vegan protein here that fits. From pea and soy to multi-source blends, the range covers everything from everyday nutrition to post-session protein hits — all made without compromise on quality or flavour.
Plant protein powder has come a long way. These aren't chalky, one-note shakes — they're carefully formulated to deliver serious protein content in formats that actually taste good and mix well. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1, making it a non-negotiable part of any training programme, vegan or otherwise.
Who Vegan Protein Is For
These products are built for anyone following a vegan or plant-based diet who wants a convenient, high-protein option that fits their lifestyle. That includes dedicated gym-goers after a reliable post-workout shake, endurance athletes looking to top up daily protein intake, and everyday people who simply want more plant-based protein in their diet without overthinking it.
Vegan protein is also a practical choice for anyone who avoids dairy or finds whey-based proteins hard on their digestive system. With options ranging from single-source powders like pea and soy to complex blends combining multiple plant proteins, there's something here for different preferences, goals, and palates — including unflavoured versions for those who like to keep things simple.
When to Use Vegan Protein
The most common time to reach for a plant protein powder is after training — it's a quick, convenient way to get a meaningful protein hit when a full meal isn't immediately on the cards. Many people also use it as a between-meal top-up, blending it into a smoothie or just shaking it with water when they know their food intake is going to fall short of their targets.
Beyond the post-workout window, vegan protein powder works just as well first thing in the morning, as part of a high-protein breakfast, or later in the evening when you want something substantial without a heavy meal. The format makes it flexible — it's not locked into one moment of the day. Use it wherever it fits your routine best.
Vegan Protein Benefits
High Protein From Plant Sources
Plant-based doesn't mean low-protein. Across the range, you'll find powders delivering 20g or more per serving from sources like pea, soy, and rice. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1, and these products are designed to make hitting your daily targets straightforward — no animal products required.
Multiple Protein Sources in One
Single-source proteins like pea or soy each bring their own amino acid profile to the table. Blended options — like Plant Protein Superblend — combine multiple plant proteins to deliver all 9 essential amino acids in a single serving. Essential amino acids are those the body can't produce on its own, so getting them through diet and supplementation matters.
Fits a Vegan and Dairy-Free Lifestyle
Every product in this category is free from animal-derived ingredients, making them suitable for vegans and those avoiding dairy. There's no compromise on protein content — these formulas are built to the same standards as any high-quality protein supplement, just without the whey.
Versatile Formats and Flavours
From powders that mix easily with water or plant milk, to clear-style proteins that are lighter and more refreshing, the range covers a variety of textures and taste preferences. Whether you want a creamy shake, a fruity clear drink, or something you can blend into food, there's a format here that works.
Popular Picks
Plant Protein Superblend — Plant Protein Superblend packs at least 20g of complete protein into every 28g serving, covering all 9 essential amino acids with low sugar and low fat — making it a smart pick for anyone keeping their plant-based nutrition tight.
Impact Pea Protein — With 23g of pea protein and just 116 calories per serving, Impact Pea Protein is built for those who want a straightforward, no-added-sugar option that doesn't compromise on protein content.

FAQs
What is vegan protein powder?
Vegan protein powder is a dietary supplement made entirely from plant-based protein sources — such as pea, soy, rice, or blends of multiple plants — with no animal-derived ingredients. It's designed to help people following a vegan or plant-based lifestyle hit their daily protein targets conveniently. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1, making it a practical addition to any active routine.
What vegan protein powders are available at Myprotein?
The range includes 11 products covering a wide variety of plant protein formats and sources. Options include single-source powders like Impact Pea Protein (23g protein per serving) and Impact Soy Protein (25g protein per serving, at least 87% protein content), as well as multi-source blends like Plant Protein Superblend, which delivers at least 20g protein per serving and contains all 9 essential amino acids. There are also clear-style vegan proteins, collagen options, and essential amino acid formulas — so whatever format suits your routine, there's something here.
Is pea protein or soy protein better for muscle growth?
Both pea protein powder and soy protein powder are solid choices, and both contribute to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1 as part of a sufficient daily protein intake. Impact Soy Protein has a slightly higher protein content per serving at 25g, while Impact Pea Protein delivers 23g with just 116 calories per serving. Soy is a complete protein containing all essential amino acids; pea protein is close but often complemented well when combined with other plant sources. The best choice comes down to personal preference and dietary considerations.
Do vegan protein powders contain all essential amino acids?
Not all plant proteins are complete on their own — soy is a notable exception, as it naturally contains all 9 essential amino acids. For broader amino acid coverage from a blend, Plant Protein Superblend is formulated to include all 9 essential amino acids in a single serving. Essential amino acids are those the body can't synthesise itself, so getting them through food and supplementation is important for anyone with an active lifestyle.
When is the best time to take vegan protein powder?
Vegan protein powder is most commonly taken after training, when getting a quick protein hit without a full meal is useful. It's equally effective as a morning protein source, a mid-day top-up blended into a smoothie, or an evening shake. There's no single correct time — the most effective moment is whichever one fits consistently into your daily routine and helps you reach your overall protein targets.
How does plant-based protein powder compare to whey?
Plant-based protein powder and whey both deliver meaningful protein per serving, and both contribute to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1. The key difference is source: vegan protein comes entirely from plants with no dairy, making it the go-to for those avoiding animal products or who find whey harder to digest. Multi-source blends are specifically designed to give a broader amino acid profile, bringing plant protein closer to the completeness of whey.
Can vegan protein powder be used for weight management?
Vegan protein powders are a popular choice for people managing their body composition alongside a balanced diet and training programme. They're typically low in fat and carbohydrates while delivering a high protein content per serving — making them a practical fit within a calorie-conscious eating plan. Protein also contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass1, which matters when managing overall body composition.
Who developed Myprotein's vegan protein products?
Myprotein's vegan protein range is developed by an in-house team of expert nutritionists. Every formula is built to deliver a meaningful protein content from quality plant-based sources, with attention to amino acid profiles, flavour, and mixability — so the products work as hard as the people using them.
What's the difference between a vegan protein blend and a single-source protein?
A single-source vegan protein — like a pure pea protein powder or soy protein powder — draws all its protein from one plant. A vegan protein blend combines two or more plant sources, which can result in a broader amino acid profile and often a smoother texture. Blends like Plant Protein Superblend or Vegan Protein Blend are formulated to round out the amino acid spectrum that individual plant proteins may not fully cover on their own.
Is plant-based protein powder suitable for everyday use?
Plant protein powder is designed for regular, everyday use as part of a balanced diet. It's not a substitute for whole foods, but it's a straightforward and convenient way to increase daily protein intake when meals alone aren't covering requirements. Whether it's a daily post-workout shake or a regular morning addition to breakfast, these products are built to be used consistently.
