NATURAL WHOLEFOODS

Our products are made from natural wholefoods… no nonsense and no junk ingredients

GLUTEN FREE

Many people feel better when they reduce gluten as long as they still consume wholefoods and enough fibre. This is why we chose to make all of our products gluten free.

WHEY OR PLANT BASED

Choose from high quality grass fed whey or plant based blends – easy to mix and tastes delicious. Both provide you with a complete amino acid profile ensuring optimum nutritional value.

Why Gluten Free?

All our products are gluten free

This is a hot topic and certainly one we find really interesting.

Strictly speaking everyone can eat gluten, unless you are coeliac. However many people remove gluten from their diets and anecdotally report that they have been less bloated and have more energy. Whilst the majority of the population are not ‘gluten intolerant’ many people report symptoms soon after consuming foods containing gluten, these can include headaches, fatigue, bloating and inflammation and joint pain.

There is no real down side to removing gluten from your diet as long as you still consume a whole food diet and ensure you consume enough fibre.

For these reasons we have chosen to make Ultra Nutrition products gluten free.
